Swing Car Park Barrier - Single Leaf - 5.5m
Product Description
Swing Car Park Barrier – Single Leaf – 5.5m
The Swing Car Park Barrier – Single Leaf – 5.5m is a practical and cost-effective solution for securing private entrances, car parks, and restricted sites. Designed to provide controlled vehicle access, this barrier is suited to a wide range of environments including commercial premises, industrial yards, retail parks, and residential complexes. With its extended 5.5m width, it allows for the smooth entry and exit of two lanes of small to medium-sized vehicles at the same time, making it an excellent choice for busier locations where access flow is important.
Strong and Durable Construction
Each 5.5m single leaf barrier is fabricated from high-quality galvanised steel by our in-house team of skilled fabricators. The galvanisation process applies a zinc coating to the steel, creating a robust layer of protection against rust, corrosion, and weather damage. This ensures the barrier remains durable, low-maintenance, and suitable for long-term outdoor use. The result is a strong, reliable access control system that maintains its clean silver finish for longer than untreated steel.
Secure and Practical Operation
The swing barrier operates on a simple pivot mechanism, allowing it to be opened and closed smoothly. A sliding bolt latch is included as standard, which can hold the barrier securely shut when not in use or keep it fixed in the open position when access is required. For additional peace of mind, the latch can be padlocked closed, preventing unauthorised vehicle entry. (Please note: padlocks are sold separately as an optional accessory.)
Flexible Installation Options
To suit different site conditions, the Swing Car Park Barrier – Single Leaf – 5.5m is available with either dig in or bolt down posts:
Dig in posts – Designed for installation on softer or loose ground where excavating holes is straightforward. These posts are manufactured longer than bolt down versions to ensure they can be set deeply and securely in place with the use of post cement (sold separately).
Bolt down posts – A practical alternative for harder ground types such as concrete. These posts feature pre-drilled base plates which can be quickly fixed in place using ground anchor bolts (sold separately).
Both options provide a stable, secure installation, ensuring the barrier remains firmly in position once fitted.
Customisation and Finish Options
As standard, the barrier is supplied in a galvanised steel finish, offering excellent long-term protection. However, for sites where aesthetics are equally important as security, the barrier can also be supplied Polyester Powder Coated (PPC) in a wide range of RAL colours. This additional finish not only enhances protection but also allows the barrier to match existing fencing, gates, or corporate branding. Please note that lead times may vary depending on the chosen colour.
