Traffic spikes, also known as tire deflation devices or road spikes, are highly effective tools used to control vehicle access in secure areas. They consist of a series of sharp, upward-facing spikes that puncture the tires of vehicles driving in the wrong direction, effectively immobilizing them. Traffic spikes are typically installed in locations such as parking lots, gated communities, and high-security facilities where controlled vehicle access is essential. Their primary function is to prevent unauthorized entry or exit by enforcing one-way traffic flow.
Traffic spikes are installed flush with the road surface, allowing vehicles to safely pass over them in one direction. If a vehicle attempts to drive over them in the opposite direction, the spikes rise and puncture the tires. These spikes are often spring-loaded, which ensures they return to their original position after each use, ready to stop any vehicle moving in the wrong direction.
Our traffic spikes at Coyote Traffic are designed with durability and longevity in mind. The springs used in our systems are rated for up to 300,000 pass-overs before requiring inspection, offering unmatched performance and reducing maintenance needs. This makes our traffic spikes some of the most durable and reliable on the market, ensuring that your traffic control systems remain effective over long periods of heavy use.
Traffic spikes are used in a variety of settings, including:
One of the main advantages of traffic spikes over other vehicle deterrents is that they stop vehicles without causing excessive damage beyond deflating tires. Unlike crash barriers or other physical obstructions, spikes offer a less risky way of stopping unauthorized vehicles. This is particularly valuable in environments where liability is a concern and ensuring minimal damage to both property and vehicles is crucial.
