Coyote Traffic’s Ultra Low-Profile Spikes
When it comes to securing high-end properties or facilities frequented by exotic cars, traditional traffic spikes can pose a significant challenge. Vehicles with low ground clearance, such as sports cars and luxury sedans, are at risk of damage from standard traffic spikes, which typically protrude too high above the ground. At Coyote Traffic, we understand the need for an effective traffic control solution that accommodates these unique vehicles without compromising on security. That’s why we’ve developed our ultra low-profile spikes, designed to provide maximum protection with minimal height, making them the ideal choice for environments with low-clearance vehicles.
A Closer Look at Our Ultra Low-Profile Spikes
Our ultra low-profile spikes are engineered to sit just 3.4 inches above the ground, significantly lower than traditional spikes, which can reach up to 5 or 6 inches in height. To put this into perspective, the minimum ground clearance of the Lamborghini Aventador, one of the world’s most iconic supercars, is approximately 4 inches. This means that our spikes are specifically designed to ensure that even the lowest-profile vehicles can pass over them safely and securely when moving in the correct direction. Other exotic cars, like the Ferrari 488 GTB, which has a ground clearance of about 4.1 inches, and the McLaren 720S, with a clearance of around 4.2 inches, can also navigate our ultra low-profile spikes without risk of damage, provided they adhere to proper driving instructions.
Why Clearance Matters
For luxury car owners and high-end facilities, vehicle clearance is more than just a number—it’s a critical aspect of maintaining the integrity and value of these vehicles. Standard traffic spikes, which rise significantly higher, can scrape the undercarriage of these low-clearance cars, causing costly damage and potential legal liabilities. Our ultra low-profile spikes eliminate this risk while still providing the robust vehicle access control you expect from Coyote Traffic. They are ideal for locations like luxury car dealerships, private estates, exclusive clubs, and high-security areas where both aesthetics and functionality are paramount.
Robust Security Without Compromise
Despite their low height, our ultra low-profile spikes do not compromise on security or durability. They are constructed from high-grade materials capable of withstanding heavy loads, ensuring they perform reliably even in high-traffic environments. With a weight capacity of up to 50 tons per axle, they can handle everything from everyday vehicles to large trucks, making them versatile enough for a wide range of applications. The spikes are spring-loaded to retract seamlessly when vehicles travel in the correct direction, providing secure, controlled access without causing damage to authorized vehicles.
Our spikes are also designed to be easily integrated into existing security systems, including automated gates and access
