The Traffic Height Restriction Kit by HERMEQ is the industry standard for managing overhead clearance on UK roads and work zones. Designed to help crews safely navigate beneath cable runs, scaffolding, or other elevated hazards, this system delivers robust support and visual warning in one streamlined package.
Each kit includes two telescopic poles made from non-conductive fibreglass that extend up to 7.3 metres high. A hand-operated quick-release clamping system allows for fast on-site adjustments and single-person setup, helping to improve deployment times without compromising on stability or safety.
Key Features:
- HSE GS6 compliant – Fully meets Health and Safety Executive guidance for working near overhead lines.
- Wind tested at MIRA – The only product in its class proven to withstand wind speeds up to 60mph.
- High-stability water bases – 120kg per base when filled; ideal for use on live roads and highways.
- Bright red/white bunting – Enhances visibility for approaching drivers and machine operators.
- Compact transport profile – Poles collapse to 1720mm for space-efficient storage and mobility.
This traffic barrier system is particularly well-suited for construction access points, telecom infrastructure zones, bridge inspections and civil engineering projects where height restriction is mandatory. Unlike traditional 25kg metal bases, HERMEQ’s water-filled solution offers significantly better anchoring power while remaining easy to empty and transport between jobs.
Thanks to its non-conductive materials, this height restriction kit is safe for use near live electrical infrastructure. The lightweight design and intuitive clamp mechanism make it easy for a single operative to deploy, adjust and remove without requiring special equipment or assistance.
HERMEQ stock a wide-range of Vehicle Height Restrictors, Traffic Management, Car Park and Entrance Barriers & Road Barriers conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.
