​Concrete Wheel Stops for Parking Lots

What Is A Wheel Stop?
Wheel stops are used to define a proper parking space for the motorists and car owners. They are used to allocate a proper parking space for all the vehicles thus ensuring the discipline in the parking lot.

They are used for multiple purposes such as to stop the vehicles from hitting the back or side barriers or to stop them from entering a certain space. They are also referred to as parking blocks or parking curbs. They are useful in regulating traffic in emergency situations.

They are useful in stopping the traffic from reaching the hazardous points and are useful when there is need to stop the traffic immediately. Wheel stops help the cars to stay in line at night time when there is little light to look up to and prevent them from over-speeding in crowded areas. 
 
Wheel Stop Dimensions
The dimensions of the wheel stops should be calibrated in such a way as to ensure safety for all types of vehicles and fulfilling the necessary purpose at the same time. They are available in three lengths i.e. three-foot, four foot and six feet.

Sometimes, parking lots of all sizes are placed one after the other thus to ensure that vehicles of all sorts are being stopped. Sometimes, they are used to prohibit certain vehicles from entering the parking lot or certain roads. They are designed so to fulfill the purpose in all sorts of weather conditions.

​The dimensions should be calibrated according to the dimensions of the tire so that the tire gets perfectly jammed and there is no possibility of any further movement. Improper dimensions can hurt the tires of the car badly and thus can be extremely risky for the travelers. Usually the wheel stops of all lengths and dimensions are made so as to help in controlling all types of traffic.  

Types of Wheel Stops

• Concrete wheel stops

These are the most popular ones and are less likely to crack in any condition. They are tougher than the other blocks but they require more maintenance than other wheel stops. Concrete parking stops are being used to regulate residential and commercial and VIP traffic. Concrete parking blocks are being used to find easy and safe solutions to parking complications outside churches, schools, banks and other important places where traffic remains high. 

• Plastic wheel stops

This type of wheel stop is useful to handle heavy and solid duty traffic. They can be installed by a single person and are usually installed on large highways. Parking stops made from plastic and can be recycled with little effort. Parking bumpers of such kind provide a considerable estimate to drivers to help them prevent from bumping into the next car.

•  Rubber Wheel stops 

These are the most commonly used blocks. Rubber parking blocks are usually made from recycled materials thus they are cheap. They are reflective as well. Rubber parking bumpers prevent vehicles from bumping into small trees, ditches, and places that are without proper boundary walls such as graveyards. They also help in preventing vehicles from entering into the parking space of other vehicles designed for another type of vehicle. ​
 
ADA Wheel Stop Requirements
Before the installation of wheel stops in parking lots, one must be aware of the ADA wheel stop requirements and restrictions. These restrictions must be kept in mind so as to make the use of wheel stops more effective. There are other laws regarding parking spaces which should also be followed. 

• The height of the wheel stop should not exceed 6.5 inches.
• The length of the wheel stop should not be more than 6 feet. 
• The gap between the wheel stop spacing should not exceed 3 feet.
