When raised and locked into position, the device physically blocks unauthorized vehicles from parking in your reserved space. When you need to park, simply unlock and lower the device (either via manual key, remote control, or smartphone app, depending on your model) so it sits flat against the ground, allowing your vehicle to drive safely over it.
Our anti-parking devices are built with heavy-duty materials designed to withstand substantial pressure. Many models feature built-in safety mechanisms—such as an internal alarm or flexible joint—that trigger when external force is applied, preventing severe damage to both the device and the vehicle. However, forcing or driving over a raised barrier can still cause property damage, which is not covered by warranty.
Yes. Designed to handle harsh New Zealand weather—including heavy rain, high UV levels, and coastal salt air—our devices are constructed from corrosion-resistant, powder-coated or galvanized steel and sealed against moisture and dust.
Yes! Most surface-mounted folding or automatic devices can be installed by a confident DIYer or local handyman. Installation generally involves marking the hole locations, drilling into solid concrete or asphalt with a masonry drill, and securing the unit using the included expansion anchor bolts.
Depending on your model, the device is powered by either rechargeable batteries or heavy-duty alkaline batteries. Under normal usage (4–6 cycles per day), a full charge typically lasts 3 to 6 months.
Automatic units feature a low-battery alert (a series of beeps or an indicator light) to remind you that it’s time to recharge or replace the battery before it completely runs out.
Every automatic model comes with a manual override key. You can unlock the outer casing manually, lower the barrier by hand, and access the battery compartment to recharge it.
