The basics are shade, security and organization. A podium umbrella keeps the team and the counter out of the sun and rain, locks and tip boxes protect keys and cash, and valet tickets and storage cases keep every car matched to its keys. Replacement casters, lights and a convex mirror for blind corners round out the setup.
What should I know about the podium umbrellas?
The aluminum frame valet umbrellas are 6 feet across and 87 inches tall, water resistant, and come in several colors, many with VALET printed on three sides. Close the umbrella whenever the stand is not in use, since wind is the most common way an umbrella gets damaged. A square base, filled with water or sand, keeps it steady.
Which lock or replacement part fits my podium?
Many parts here are made for a specific SD2K podium, like the tip boxes for the Smart and Elite podiums and the caster sets for the Elite and Smart models. Lock options run from a standard cam lock with keys to keyless digital, mechanical code and fingerprint locks. Check the product details for the podium model before ordering, or ask the team to confirm the fit.
What valet equipment is available?
Gear for running a polished valet stand: podiums and key boxes, key hook boards, podium umbrellas, locks and tip boxes, valet tickets, vertical sign panels and directional signs, and cones and delineators in upscale colors like black and white. Many items are SD2K Valet products built for hotels, restaurants and venues.
Can valet gear match my property's brand?
Yes. Podiums take front or full wrap custom artwork, vertical panels can carry a custom message or logo, and black or white panels and cones give a clean, upscale look. Send the artwork or wording to the team to get started.
