FAQs

Every site has different risks — and public spaces require even more control. Aremco manufactures heavy-duty access restriction products designed specifically for councils, developers and commercial premises. From school car parks to business estates and public green spaces, we provide UK-manufactured barriers and bollards built to last. We can supply direct or through contractors, with: Height restriction barriers Anti-traveller solutions Bollards for vehicle prevention Commercial swing gates Access control for car parks Powder-coated & galvanised finishes Site visits and technical drawings available Whether you’re securing one car park or specifying products for multiple locations — we can design, supply and support what you need, direct from our West Midlands facility.

Do you supply to councils, developers and contractors?

Yes. We regularly supply barriers, bollards and gates to local councils, housing developers, logistics centres, construction contractors and schools. We offer drawings, site visits and technical specifications to support tenders and approvals.

Can your barriers help prevent traveller or unauthorised encampments?

Yes. We supply height barriers, bollards and security gates specifically designed to prevent unauthorised vehicle access to parks, public spaces, vacant land and council-owned car parks. We’ve helped multiple locations reduce traveller encampments quickly and effectively.

Do your products meet any UK standards or regulations?

Our steel barriers and gates are galvanised to BS EN ISO 1461, with optional powder coating in RAL safety colours. Our swing gates can include BS EN 12604:2017 restrainers, and locking systems suitable for insurance compliance. Full specifications are available on request.

Can you provide drawings or documentation for planning/tender approval?

Yes. We can supply technical drawings, product specifications and datasheets to support tender submissions, council planning permission or contractor sign-off. Many projects begin with a site visit to assess the access point properly.

What security options do you recommend for car parks?

For public and commercial car parks we recommend:

  • Height barriers – prevent high/unauthorised vehicles
  • Bollards – stop vehicles entering pedestrian zones
  • Swing gates – for opening/closing times
  • Padlocks & access control – for staff-only entry
  • Reflective signage – visibility & compliance

Each site is different — we can advise based on width, traffic flow and vehicle types.

Do you offer multi-site installations or repeat supply across projects?

Yes. Many councils and contractors use us for repeat orders across multiple sites. Once dimensions and specifications are agreed, we can manufacture consistent products for different locations — often with faster lead times once the first site is approved.

Can you make barriers and bollards match existing site branding or colours?

Absolutely. We offer RAL colour-matching, ideal for schools, leisure centres and business parks that need to match existing fencing or branding. Reflective tape, height signage and hazard striping can also be added during manufacturing.
