Wheelstop Block

There are several measures you can take to make sure wheel stops are not a trip hazard. First, ensure the area is well lit - the wheel stops need to be highly visible at all times, especially at night. Second, only install them in areas with prominent parking spaces in use. Finally, ensure you are purchasing wheel stops with reflective markings for increased visibility.

Wheel stops are one of our biggest selling ranges at Pittman®. We keep large stocks of GNR rubber Park It rubber wheel stops at our main warehouse so that they are ready for collection or overnight delivery nationwide. Our steel wheel stops come directly from the manufacturer, and are again available for speedy delivery to any site nationwide, normally in 2 to 3 days but express options are also possible.

Rubber wheel stops are much more durable than concrete designs. The rubber design is also much more cost-effective to install or replace if needed.

Made with a tough PPC plastic material for a hard-wearing design. Plastic wheel stops will not chip, rot or crack while in use. They are highly durable and suitable for use with cars and vans only. The plastic design reduces flexibility so they are only suitable for level surfaces. The non-reflective design also means that they are suitable for well-lit environments.

Wheel chocks are used to prevent vehicles from accidentally rolling. They can be used with cars and vans but are more common with HGVs, trailers, aircraft, and other large vehicles. Wheel chocks are available in rubber and plastic and are loose lay for easy insertion and removal from behind vehicle wheels. Some options can be equipped with chains to bolt them down into the area of use, such as loading bays or airport aprons.

For HGVs and larger vehicles you will require truck wheel stops. Truck wheel stops are a rubber kerb designed to stop trucks from colliding in loading bays. A single wheel stop will be required for each vehicle wheel.

Most wheel stops are suitable for installing into concrete or tarmac. However, it is advised never to install wheel stops into block paving.

It's important to note what vehicles the wheel stops are required for. Most standard rubber wheel stops will suffice for cars or vans, but HGVs will require a more robust option due to the size and weight of the vehicle wheels.

Be sure to note the surface type and integrity before installing wheel stops. Wheel stops are generally fine to install on concrete or tarmac but are not recommended into block paving. Complete a thorough risk assessment of the area and note any other obstacles or hazards that could effect the use of the wheel stops.

Rubber wheel stops should have their reflective markings moulded on. The XPT wheel stops come with high quality moulded markings for increased visibility and resistance to wear. Avoid cheaper alternatives that have markings glued on. Adhesive markings are more likely to come off over time.

Steel is a highly suitable material for truck wheel stops, ideal for heavy duty requirements. Truck wheel stops are common in warehouses, freight depots and most other industrial settings. Additionally, they can be used as wheel guides for truck parking bays, with a higher profile to suit HGVs and articulated lorries.
