HERMEQ’s standard traffic flow plates provide a simple, effective way to control one-way traffic. Commonly used in commercial car parks, retail access points, and private developments, they physically prevent vehicles from travelling in the wrong direction without the need for electronic control systems.

Built from high-strength chequer plate steel and powder-coated in high-visibility yellow, they enhance driver awareness while delivering lasting durability. Each unit is surface-mounted using six bolts—ideal for installation in areas where excavation isn’t feasible.

  • Supports 1 tonne per axle – Designed for cars and light vans in commercial sites.
  • Bolt-down fixing – Installs on aged tarmac or concrete without specialist tools.
  • Bright finish for awareness – Yellow paint enhances safety by alerting approaching vehicles.
  • Modular placement – Can be installed in sequence to suit road width and lane configuration.
  • Optional use with signage – Complements HERMEQ speed ramps and warning signs.

Standard traffic direction plates are often specified on multi-storey car parks, loading bays, and gated estates to keep vehicles flowing safely. To maximise lifespan, vehicles should pass over in a straight line. Where tight turns or inclines exist, it’s advised to position plates on flat sections of road.

When paired with speed bumps or control signage, flow plates offer added security for facility managers, warehouse operators, and local councils who need to prevent unauthorised entry and reduce risk of collision. For larger vehicles or high-frequency use, HERMEQ also supplies heavy-duty flow plate options.

HERMEQ stock a wide-range of Entrace Barriers, Traffic Management, Permanent Fencing & Temporary Fencing conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

  • Positioning advice: Avoid fitting on slopes or loose gravel as this can cause mechanical failure or early wear.
  • Vehicle guidance: Designed for light commercial traffic only (max 1 tonne per axle).
  • Recommended pairing: Use with Speed Ramps and warning signage for best results.

Surface installation:
Fit directly to concrete or aged tarmac using M12 x 100mm fixings. Drilled holes must reach full 100mm depth before mounting to prevent loose anchoring. Do not over-tighten bolts during final fit.

Safety guidance:
Not intended for pedestrian zones. Ensure users cross plates slowly and in line to avoid excessive impact. Misuse (e.g., sharp turns) may reduce service life.
