    Benefits of vehicle height restriction barriers

    1. Access control for smaller car parks
    When you have limited space to work with, you need to make sure that there is always easy access to your premises. Large vehicles are not always ideal, and can actually hinder your day-to-day productivity by causing unnecessary obstructions to the entrances and exits of your premises. With car park height restriction barriers, you can prevent these large vehicles from entering your site and disrupting traffic flow, which is ideal for smaller car parks that can’t accommodate vehicles like tall lorries.

    2. Fully adjustable and customisable

    Our height restriction barriers can be adjusted to suit the needs of your site, whether it’s an outdoor car park or an underground parking structure. With single and double-leaf options available, you can choose a span from between 2 metres and 12 metres. That way, you can make sure both narrow channels and wide entrances are catered for.

     

    Thankfully, our car park height restriction barriers are also available with a swinging cross beam. This allows authorised tall sided vehicles to safely enter your premises, without needing to remove the restriction.

    Frequently asked questions

    • What is a height restriction barrier?

      Height restriction barriers feature a fixed or swinging cross beam on top of two steel posts fixed into the ground. This cross beam (adjustable height) prevents vehicles over a certain height from entering a car park or premises. The width between the two fixed posts will vary between sites, meaning that both wide and narrow entrances can be catered for.

    • What are the benefits of height restriction barriers?

      Vehicle height restriction barriers are essential in areas where there’s not enough space to accommodate larger vehicles, or there’s a risk that larger vehicles could cause congestion, delays or obstructions. These barriers prevent vehicles over a certain height from entering.

    • What are traffic height barriers?

      Vehicle height restriction barriers can also be called traffic height barriers.

    • Where might you find vehicle height restriction barriers?

      These height restriction barriers are commonly found in smaller car parks that can’t accommodate larger vehicles or busy commercial car parks that don’t want larger vehicles to cause congestion and obstructions – these sites may have separate spaces for large vehicles elsewhere.

    • How long will height restriction barrier installation take?

      Delivery and installation of your traffic barriers will depend on your particular site and project. Get in touch with us today for more personalised information.
