Which Parking Barrier Do I Need?

Manual Raise-Arm Barriers

Manual raise-arm barriers are better for controlled entrances with moderate vehicle movements. They are a practical choice where a member of staff or authorised user can operate the barrier directly.

Automatic Raise-Arm Barriers

Automatic raise-arm barriers are usually used by busy commercial car parks, managed entrances and sites with regular vehicle movements. They can support controlled access without requiring someone to lift the arm manually.

Swing Access Gates

Swing access gates suit lower-traffic vehicle entrances where there is enough clear space for the gate arm to move horizontally. They may be used at private roads, industrial entrances, construction compounds and unmanned access points.

Rectangular Car Park Barriers

Rectangular car park barriers provide a visible manual closure across a wider entrance. They may be suitable for industrial yards, private roads and commercial car parks where a larger full-width barrier is preferred.

Automatic Rising Bollards

Automatic rising bollards are intended for managed access points where authorised vehicles need regular entry. They can provide an alternative to an automatic raise-arm barrier where space is limited or a horizontal boom is unsuitable.

Height-Restriction Barriers

Height-restriction barriers are used where vehicles above a defined clearance must be prevented from entering. They may suit car parks, loading areas, private roads and entrances leading towards structures with restricted headroom.

Manual or Automatic Car Park Barriers?

Manual Parking Barriers

Manual raise-arm barriers are a practical choice for entrances that do not require automated operation. They may suit construction compounds, industrial premises, private roads and staff-controlled car parks where access is managed manually by someone.Choose a manual barrier when: Vehicle movements are occasional or moderate. A member of staff can operate the barrier. Power is unavailable or undesirable at the entrance.

Automatic Parking Barriers

Automatic raise-arm barriers are better suited to entrances that are used regularly or need to work with a managed access-control system. The HERMEQ standard automatic model is intended for commercial car park access and uses an automated boom mechanism.Choose an automatic barrier when: The entrance handles frequent vehicle movements. Drivers need controlled access without manual lifting. Consistent opening and closing is required.

Parking Bollards for Controlled Access

Telescopic Security Bollards

Telescopic bollards can be hidden below the ground when the route is open or raised to block the route when access needs to be blocked. They are normally use on individual parking bays, driveways, private entrances and narrow access lanes when a large barrier arm would be impractical.

Automatic Rising Bollards

Automatic rising bollards allow an access point to be opened and closed without any manual intervention. They may suit controlled entrances where vehicles require regular authorised access but a horizontal barrier arm is unsuitable.

Common Applications

Commercial Car Parks

Parking barriers and bollards can be used to manage staff, visitor, permit-holder and customer access. The right product depends on traffic frequency and whether the entrance is supervised.

Construction Sites and Compounds

Manual barriers and gates may be used at site entrances to restrict unauthorised vehicle access outside working hours or direct drivers towards a controlled entry point.

Industrial Yards and Warehouses

Industrial premises may use access barriers to manage deliveries, staff vehicles and restricted operating areas. Wall guards and parking spacers can also be useful in these layouts.

Private Roads and Residential Parking

Retractable bollards, manual barriers and swing gates can help control access to private parking spaces, shared entrances and private roads.

Local Authority and Public-Sector Sites

Schools, depots, offices, public car parks and maintenance facilities may require a combination of access control, height restriction and vehicle guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose a manual or automatic car park barrier?

Choose a manual barrier for occasional or staff-controlled access where someone can operate it directly. Choose an automatic barrier for more frequent vehicle movements or where entry needs to work with an access-control system.

What is the difference between a raise-arm barrier and a swing gate?

A raise-arm barrier moves vertically and usually requires less space beside the entrance. A swing gate moves horizontally and needs a clear area into which the arm can open.

Can parking barriers stop a moving vehicle?

Do not assume that a standard parking barrier can safely stop a moving vehicle. Most parking and access barriers are intended to control entry rather than provide tested vehicle-impact protection. Use a suitably tested system where impact resistance is required.

Do automatic parking barriers need a power supply?

Yes, automatic raise-arm barriers and automatic rising bollards generally require power and a suitable control arrangement.

What is a parking spacer used for?

A parking spacer marks the intended stopping position within a parking bay. It can help drivers park more consistently and maintain clearance from walls, walkways or equipment.

When should I use a height-restriction barrier?

Use a height-restriction barrier where vehicles above a set clearance must be prevented from entering. Confirm the required height, entrance width and access needs before ordering.
