Navigating indoor parking lots can be difficult.

By helping drivers maneuver parking lots, our garage stops can also prevent damage to personal belongings and interior walls.

Concrete Wheel Stop Solutions That Withstand Wear and Tear

For decades we have continued to use the same excellent engineering to produce high-quality concrete products for our customers. A garage parking stop from American Precast is, therefore, not only cost-efficient but is also built to last. All our concrete is cylinder tested to a minimum psi of 3000 at seven days and 4000 psi at 28 days.

Every wheel stop has tied steel rebar for reinforcement. We also install the rebar using our unique vibration settling technique to remove any voids in the concrete. This fortification means the garage parking stops can handle impacts from large vehicles without chipping or cracking.

At American Precast, We Offer Two Different Ways to Install Our Wheel Stops Depending on the Site Conditions:

  • The first is an installation using steel rebar pins drilled through the asphalt to secure the wheel stop or parking bumper. This option is best used in sites where drilling into the asphalt is not a concern.
  • The second installation method of garage parking stop is using a durable two-part epoxy to secure the wheel stop to the surface. Our garage parking blocks are manufactured with a smooth base to ensure the epoxy bonds well with both surfaces. Since there is no drilling with this method, this can be used on surfaces that cannot handle the damage from drilling – like in parking garages.

Wheel Stop Specifications

Here are some tips on determining the appropriate size for concrete parking garage stops:

  • Consider the types of vehicles using the garage. Larger vehicles like trucks and SUVs will require taller stops than small passenger cars.
  • Look at the width of the parking spaces. Wider spaces can accommodate longer parking stops. Standard parking spaces are usually 8.5-9 feet wide.
  • Account for overhang. Most vehicles will overhang the stop by 1-2 feet. Make sure to allow for this so the rear of the vehicle clears the stop.
  • Check any building codes or regulations for minimum stop size requirements. Many municipalities dictate a minimum 4-6 inch height.
  • Measure existing stops if replacing old ones. This will give you a good benchmark.
  • Allow room for drainage. Garage stops should have a gap underneath to allow water to drain.
  • Factor in speed control needs. Shorter stops are less jarring for low speeds (5 mph), while taller stops are more effective for 10+ mph.
  • Consult with APC. Our team can assess your garage and recommend the ideal concrete stop dimensions to safely manage vehicles and pedestrians.

The most common garage stop size is 4 feet long by 6 inches high. But APC can custom create stops to fit any garage requirements. Contact us today for help determining the perfect stop size for your facility.
