Height Barriers Ltd: UK manufacturing of vehicle access barriers

Height Barriers Ltd is a British manufacturer specialising in fixed and opening height restriction barriers. Its catalogue is aimed at car parks, schools, councils, retail parks and industrial sites, and the company states that it supplies nationwide and installs across the UK. The product range is complemented by related traffic-flow equipment such as gates, flow plates, speed ramps, signage, steel road plates, concrete stop blocks, automated barriers, bollards and cycle shelters.

Barrier types and configurations

The fixed barrier line includes standard and heavy-duty steel versions, with widths from 3 m to 9 m, multiple clearance heights, root-fixed or surface-mounted configurations, and galvanised or powder-coated finishes. The catalogue also lists fixed barriers with a lower gate, a ladder-style fixed barrier with lower gate, and an ultra heavy-duty fixed barrier. For controlled access with an opening section, the company offers single-leaf and double-leaf opening height barriers, with or without a lower gate, plus single-leaf and double-leaf manual gates. A heavy-duty manual raise barrier arm is available for spans of 3 m to 7 m.

In-house fabrication and finishing

According to the company, all fabrication is kept in-house and no part of the process is outsourced. The factory is equipped with a 3 m by 1.5 m plasma table with current software, folding facilities, and its own powder coating and spray shop. Products are made from various gauges of mild steel depending on weight requirements and are powder coated in yellow to European Standards BSEN13438 and BSDEN15773 for maximum visibility. The company describes its output as 100% British made.
