Wheel stops: coordinate parking geometry before ordering
Select and position a wheel stop using the parking layout, vehicle use and pedestrian interfaces. A long rubber profile does not determine the correct location within every bay.
Selection considerations
Review wall clearance, overhang, bay depth and access routes with the project designer. Identify whether different vehicle classes use the spaces. Keep accessible parking and crossing areas visible on the layout so stops do not obstruct them.
Compare length, height, material and fixing in the BULDX record. Check the actual substrate before specifying anchors. Reflective details may support visibility, but they should be considered with lighting and markings. Include position references in the installation schedule instead of allowing a repeated site spacing to become an undocumented layout decision.
Before you specify or order
- Use the approved bay layout
- Review vehicle overhang and routes
- Confirm substrate-compatible fixings

Common question
Can one wheel stop position be repeated for all vehicles?
Not automatically. Bay geometry and the intended vehicle range need review.
