What is a Height Restrictor Barrier?
A height restrictor, height barrier, or height restriction barrier is a horizontal barrier mounted at the maximum allowed height, preventing taller vehicles from crossing. It is an artificial barrier. It may be placed some distance before something more substantial that imposes this limit (such as a roof), or may be used to enforce legal vehicle restrictions. Height restrictors can be found in front of underpasses, covered bridges, drive-throughs with overhanging roofs, parking garage entrances, and over-ground parking lots. The maximum height is usually posted either on the barrier itself or on a nearby sign.

The HSE advises on the safety precautions for car park height barriers to prevent accidents and potential fatalities. These swinging barriers, common in retail car parks and other establishments, consist of horizontal bars hinged on vertical posts, manually operated to allow or deny access.
Accidents have occurred due to inadequately secured barriers, resulting in partial openings and the protruding end profile impaling oncoming vehicles. Visibility issues may also contribute, with barriers striking vehicles as they swing into their path due to wind, gravity, or vandalism.
Users are reminded of their responsibilities: conducting risk assessments to identify hazards and taking precautions to eliminate or control them. Existing risk assessments should be reviewed to assess risk elimination possibilities. Horizontal barriers should be secured by human intervention, preventing vandalism and ensuring safety.
Barriers must be adequately secured at all times, whether open or closed, with a padlock sufficing. Enhance visibility by painting or marking them with alternate bands for drivers' awareness. Regular inspections are crucial to ensure securing methods and visibility remain intact.
Maintenance should follow manufacturer instructions, and consultation with suppliers is recommended if assessments reveal inadequacies in securing or visibility requirements.
