Reliable Access Control for Car Parks & Restricted Zones
An ideal solution for controlling access to unauthorised areas, this heavy-duty single swinging leaf height restrictor is specifically designed to prevent high-sided vehicles, such as HGVs and caravans, from entering staff or public car parks. The swing-opening crossbar offers the flexibility to grant occasional access to larger vehicles when required for deliveries, refuse collections, or emergency services.
Robust and reliable, this barrier serves as the perfect physical deterrent for shopping centres, recreational grounds, and commercial properties.
Key Features
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from heavy-duty structural steel for long-lasting durability, engineered to withstand harsh weather conditions and frequent operation.
- Fitting Options: Available as a sunken fixture (concrete in) or surface mounted (bolt down). Note: Concrete-in is strongly recommended for maximum post rigidity and operational stability.
- Standard Sizing: Standard clear openings from 3m to 6m with clearance heights from 1.9m to 2.3m.
- Signage Options: Choose between flush-mounted Static Signs fixed directly to the crossbar, or suspended Nudge Bars that swing freely on impact to alert drivers before contact with the main frame.
- Access Control: Secure locking facility integrated as standard to padlock the gate securely in the closed position.
- Safety in Open Position: Compatible with dedicated latch-back catch posts to secure the arm open during scheduled deliveries or emergency vehicle access.
Available Finishes
- Zinc Primed & Powder Coated: Durable baked colour finish available in standard RAL colours, with bespoke hues available on request.
- Galvanised Only: Hot-dip galvanised for superior rust and corrosion resistance across exposed outdoor sites.
- Double Finish: Hot-dip galvanised and powder coated for maximum corrosion defence combined with high corporate visibility.

Delivery & Fabrication Notice
These heavy-duty barriers are made to order to ensure the highest quality finish. Standard manufacturing takes between 7 to 14 working days for single finishes (Galvanised or Powder Coated) and 14 to 21 working days for double finishes. Please allow an additional 2 to 3 working days for delivery once fabrication is complete. While our checkout provides an estimated lead time based on minimum schedules, exact delivery dates are confirmed upon order processing and scheduling with our transport team.
IMPORTANT DELIVERY NOTE: Please be aware that these are substantial units. Offloading beyond the kerbside is the customer's responsibility. Ensure suitable equipment or personnel are available on-site at the time of delivery.
SAFETY RECOMMENDATION: To maximize visibility and prevent accidental collisions, we strongly advise installing warning signage and nudge bars on all opening barriers.
LATCH-BACK POST LIABILITY: Latch-back posts are critical for safely securing the gate in the open position. Please note: Customers opting out of these recommended posts assume full liability for safe operation, as unsecured gates can swing into traffic or pedestrians.
