With highly visible reflective tape and clearly displayed ‘low clearance’ height warnings, Height Bars will deter oversized vehicles entering areas not designed to accommodate them. Exposed assets can be protected, and costly structural damage can be avoided with this simple, yet affective, solution. Suspend from existing ceilings or alternatively choose a surface mount, below ground, or post mount option.

    Minimise the risk of damaging vehicles and property caused by oversize vehicles entering areas of restricted height by installing suspended Height Bars.
    Height bars are available in a range of standard lengths from 2 metres all the way up to 6 metres. Each height bar is supplied with the necessary chain (2 X 1mt) , suspension kits and “LOW CLEARANCE” text, with your specified height in Black lettering on a White vinyl background.
    Use height bars at locations where vehicles first enter an undercover area or encounter an overhead obstruction, where the clearance in either case is: (i) 3 metres or less if only cars or light vans are likely to use the facility or (ii) 4.6 metres or less in all other areas.

Why Do I Need A Height Bar In My Car Park?

Height bars are hanging bars that prevent vehicles from entering or exiting a driveway or parking lot without an adequate amount of clearance. They are a visual deterrent as well as being a physical indicator, if hit, that your vehicle will not be able to drive in or through the designated area. A sign should be installed near any height bar clearly telling drivers how much clearance is needed to safely enter/exit.

What Height Should A Low Clearance Bar Be?

Prior to installation measure from ground level to the height you need the height bar to be placed in. The most important thing to remember when measuring from ground level is that it must be accurate, as even a few centimetres of variance can be detrimental to the operational success of the hanging bar.

The other most important factor to consider is what the lowest point of your ceiling or overhead obstruction is. This measurement is what the entrance to the area, and the height bar clearance, should be installed at. The low clearance height must be displayed on the height bar.

What Colour Should A Maximum Clearance Height Bar be?

Generally, a maximum clearance or low clearance height bar will be safety yellow with red/white striped reflective tape. The wording of ‘maximum clearance’ or ‘low clearance’ will be written in black bold text in the middle of the bar with the height limit clearly stated next to the text.
