A provider of parking meter and pay station solutions, Municipal Parking Services Connecticut is best known for producing the Sentry Parking meter, a parking meter with a number of advanced capabilities. Based on Municipal Parking Services Connecticut’s design, the meter accepts payment by cash, coin, the SentryMobile consumer app, and when applicable, permit cards. It has a lighted touch screen display that is is easily visible at night, and features foreign language translation options in both on-screen text and audio playback.

The company protects against incidences of false vehicle detection that are sometimes common with traditional parking-meter solutions using two patented detection methods. This makes it easy to verify the current status of every car in every parking spot. It also offers its clients a range of metering formats, from one meter per parking space, to one meter for 30 or more parking spaces.

In addition to the Sentry Parking meter, the firm provides advanced kiosks for monitoring entire parking lots or garages, no-parking enforcement through its Sentry SafetyStick, public safety solutions through its Sentry MPS meters, and other innovative parking management solutions.
