At Barriers Direct, we sell Car Park Barriers that are suitable in a variety of environments.
Automatic and manual Car Park Barriers
To help you monitor and control vehicle entry and exit in car parks and restricted areas, Barriers Direct's offers versatile range of manual and automatic car park barriers. Designed with durability and ease of use in mind, our barriers are ideal for both commercial and residential applications, providing enhanced security, traffic flow management, and a welcoming experience for visitors.
Manual Raise Arm Barriers
Our Hi-Vis manual arm barrier is a robust, heavy-duty option crafted with a steel construction for enhanced stability and resilience. Featuring a double-legged pedestal, this barrier provides added support and durability. The aluminium boom, equipped with a counterweight and a comfortable handle grip, is available in lengths from 3 to 6 metres. This allows for secure entry control in various sized car parks and entry points.
For larger entrances, our heavy-duty manual arm barrier offers extended coverage with booms up to 9 metres long. Despite its reach, the barrier remains well-balanced, making it easy to raise and lower. Built with high-quality steel, it requires locking in an upright position for safety and can be customised with signage upon request.
Automatic Raise Arm Barriers
Our automatic car park barrier is a high visibility cost-effective, smooth-operating solution powered by an integral Telemecanique inverter-driven motor and gearbox. With a boom length of up to 4 metres, this barrier is ideal for medium-sized entry points and requires only a single-phase power supply, ensuring ease of installation and operation. Its aluminium cabinet is both sleek and sturdy, designed to house and protect the control unit and electric powered motors for years to come.
For versatile applications, our automatic raise arm barriers offer high durability and compatibility with a wide range of access control systems, suitable for both residential and commercial sites. Available with arm lengths between 3 and 6 metres, these barriers are designed to handle frequent use, are easy to install, allowing for reliable entry and exit management to prevent unauthorised access.
Our compact electronic boom barrier is another innovative option, perfect for smaller entrances or locations with limited access to power. This security barrier is constructed from aluminium, operates with either an internal battery or solar power, and is suitable for environments where channelling a traditional power supply might be challenging.
Automatic Bollards and Chain Barrier
One of our most advanced access control solutions is the automatic Bollards and Chain Barrier. This unique barrier system consists of two bollards equipped with an integrated gear motor and control panel, with a chain that raises and lowers below ground level to grant access. Ideal for private parking facilities, this barrier can also be used to manage pedestrian traffic and control access of vehicles selectively.
FAQs for Car Park Barriers
Q: What types of car park barriers are available?
At Barriers Direct, we offer both manual and automatic car park barriers. Our manual barriers are robust and cost-effective, ideal for environments where automatic power is not necessary. Our automatic barriers provide smooth operation and are well-suited for sites requiring frequent vehicle access control, such as commercial car parks or gated communities.
Q: How do manual arm barriers work?
Manual arm barriers are operated by lifting the barrier arm by hand. Our manual barriers are equipped with a counterweight and comfortable grip, making them easy to raise and lower, even with heavier-duty models. They are securely fixed to the ground and can be locked in both the raised and lowered positions.
Q: What are the power requirements for automatic car park barriers?
Most of our automatic barriers only require a single-phase power supply for easy installation. Some models, like our compact electronic boom barrier, offer alternative power sources, such as internal batteries or solar power, making them ideal for areas without easy access to a power source.
Q: Can car park barriers be customised?
Yes, our barriers can be customised to suit your specific needs. Options include boom lengths (from 3 to 9 metres depending on the model), colour finishes for visibility or aesthetics, and additional signage for clear instruction to users. Customisation options vary by model, so contact us for specific requests.
