Wheel Stops in Your Parking Lot

​
Concrete Wheel Stops for Parking Lot
 
Wheel stops, also known as parking blocks, are physical barriers which are the major components of any well-maintained parking lot-be it inside or outside. They help in keeping the vehicles in order by sounding a notification to the driver that no forward movement is allowed.
 
Reasons Why Wheel Stops Are Needed for Your Parking Lot

• Warning and stopping drivers from causing structural damages installed in the lot
• Stooping improper vehicle encroachment in areas of pedestrian pathways
• Demarcating parking areas and loading zones
• Preventing collisions between vehicles, vehicles, and walls
• Easy accessibility of vehicles into the parking space
• Allow easy exit of vehicles out of the parking space

 
During the design of the parking lot and the installation of the parking blocks, the designer needs to do a risk-benefit analysis. Not every person that uses the parking lots has the same concentration and focus as they access the area irrespective of age. 
 
Despite the many benefits the parking blocks offer, there are usually pedestrian accidents that they pose if not well placed and marked. Hence, it can cause serious pedestrian injuries. 
 
Wheels stops should have a contrasting color from the surrounding environment.
Adjacent wheel stops should be appropriately positioned to maintain safe pedestrian passage.

​Three Types of Wheel Stops
 

• Concrete wheel stops - made from concrete. They are industry standards used for parking lots, commercial garages and truck stops
• Rubber wheel stops- made from rubber and are mostly used in institutions, hospitals, public parking areas
• Plastic wheel stops- made from recycled plastics
