The benefits of a good car park barrier entry system

A car park entry barrier system is often underappreciated. However, they play a vital role that can have an impact not only on your business but also on neighbouring streets, shopping districts, and pedestrians. A good car park entry barrier system has benefits such as safety and security, controls traffic flow, and ensures payment for parking from all drivers.

What are the benefits of a well-chosen car park barrier entry system?

1.  Safety and Security

In high-security areas, a well-installed security barrier can really improve the safety of your business site. You can include single-direction flow spikes, bollard blockers, and green light systems to add weight to your security barrier and improve peace of mind when leaving the site at high-risk times such as overnight or holidays.

2.  Controls traffic flow

A car park barrier can use elements such as flow plates to help maintain traffic flow in the right direction and deter larger vehicles. Once installed they are very hard-wearing and need very little maintenance.

3.  Ensures payment

A security barrier also ensures that any car park payments take place. As parking can be expensive, a car park barrier helps prevent unwanted drivers from parking for free in your car park. When installed and designed well, the whole car park barrier entry system should work seamlessly with the whole security system and be a headache-free solution.

How do I choose the right car park barrier entry system?

There are several things to consider when choosing the right car park barrier entry system for your individual business needs. You’ll need to consider what size and level of security you will need for your car park barrier. This will depend on the length and width of your access point and your individual security barrier needs. For example, for a business with high traffic flow, such as a shopping centre, you may wish to consider an automatic gate barrier. Whereas for a business with a narrower access point, you may prefer a folding parking barrier. It is also important to consider the aesthetic needs of your car park barrier. A folding parking barrier may be more visually pleasing but an automatic gate barrier may be overall more practical.
