Our most frequently asked questions for Wheel Stops & Parking Posts
What are wheel stops used for?
Wheel stops are low, fixed units placed at the front of a parking bay to stop a vehicle rolling too far forward and hitting a wall, fence or pedestrian area. They help protect building frontages, landscaping and adjacent vehicles, and also give drivers a clear visual guide for where to stop. They're a standard fitting in most car parks.
What materials are wheel stops made from?
Wheel stops are commonly made from recycled rubber, concrete or galvanised steel, each suited to slightly different needs. Rubber wheel stops are lightweight and forgiving on tyres and vehicle bumpers, concrete ones are heavier and more static, and steel options offer a slim, durable profile. The choice often comes down to expected traffic and site preference.
How are wheel stops fixed to the ground?
Wheel stops are usually bolted down to an existing hard surface such as tarmac or concrete using ground anchors or expanding bolts through pre-formed holes. This makes installation straightforward without excavation. On looser or unsuitable surfaces, additional fixing preparation may be needed to keep the wheel stop secure under repeated vehicle contact.
What's the difference between a wheel stop and a parking post?
A wheel stop is a low unit that physically stops a vehicle's wheel rolling forward, while a parking post is a taller upright marker used to define bay boundaries, restrict access or protect specific spaces such as those reserved for disabled or electric vehicle users. Many car parks use both together for clear demarcation and protection.
Do wheel stops come in different colours for visibility?
Yes, wheel stops are often available in yellow, or with yellow reflective strips, to improve visibility for drivers, particularly in poorly lit car parks or multi-storey structures. Concrete and steel versions can usually be painted or powder coated to suit, while rubber wheel stops commonly come with moulded yellow markings as standard.
Are rubber wheel stops as durable as concrete ones?
Rubber wheel stops are durable and weather resistant, and their flexibility means they're less likely to crack on impact compared with concrete, though concrete wheel stops are heavier and harder to dislodge. Which lasts longer in practice depends on traffic levels and how the units are fixed down. Both are widely used and it often comes down to site preference.
What length wheel stop do I need for a standard parking bay?
Wheel stop length varies by product and is generally chosen to sit centrally within a standard bay rather than span its full width, though exact sizing depends on the bay dimensions and vehicle types using the site. There isn't a single length that suits every car park, so it's best to check your bay layout with us before ordering.
