We frequently get asked if our speed bumps are suitable for use with sports cars and other vehicles with low ground clearance.  Well, the quick answer to this is YES, our PVC speed bumps are perfectly suitable for use with low vehicles and sports cars.  We have all approached a Tarmac speed bump on a public road in our much loved car, and stared at it wondering how much of the underside of our car will be removed as we carefully try to traverse the speed bump. With our PVC speed bumps this is not an issue, (so long as...

Our speed bumps are great for slowing down traffic, and ideal for use on private roads. But we do strongly suggest you also use our speed bump warning signs to warn people of the speed bumps before they get to them.  We wonder whether these speed bumps in Dubai had warning signs, or whether the Lamborghini was just going too fast to see them? either way I bet the repair bill was fairly expensive. These are not our speed bumps in the video, but we were amazed that people would drive like this!

With the summer months coming we are getting more and more enquiries from caravan sites who want to ensure that people within their sites are safe. We have all been to a caravan site and seen people racing around keen to get to the shops or the pub, whilst children play only feet away. It’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

The old road surface needs to be keyed and cut at so the additional tarmac that forms the hump will stick to the surface. This all takes time and a lot of equipment, so the bill normally works our 4 - 5 times the price of a PVC Speed Bump.   2. Installation Time. Well as stated above,...

If you were wondering how tough our Speed Bumps are, then this should answer your question... This week a customer of ours emailed us these photographs, the speed bumps pictured have been fitted on an entrance to a private industrial estate for the last 7 years. The site has frequent access by all manner of vehicles including HGV's and as there is a Plant Hire company on the estate, JCB's and Low loaders also make frequent trips though the entrance.  Now you may notice in the image that only 2 of the four fixing holes where used when securing the...
