Park It Parking Curb

The rubber Park-It parking curb is used to effectively guide cars when pulling into a parking stall. It is profiled at 10 cm high, safeguarding potential damage to today's low, front end car designs. 

 
         

Features

Unlike concrete or plastic, which necessitate frequent replacements, recycled rubber car stops are safer and more durable. In-molded highly reflective tape (available in yellow or white) ensures visibility and pedestrian safety. The GNR Park-It® car stop is constructed of 100% recycled rubber.

The Park It® comes with pre-molded holes and can be shipped with anchoring spikes or lag bolts for installation. They are lightweight (15,5 kg.) and flexible; conforming to the contour of uneven road surfaces.

Park-It® car stops are available in 55 cm, 90 cm, 120 cm, and 180 cm lengths and are covered by a 3 year warranty.
