Sleeping policeman ramps deter drivers from speeding in an area. The raised ramps provide a sharp bump for drivers if they drive over them too fast. Installing sleeping policemen in your area provides better road safety for drivers and pedestrians.
What is a Sleeping Policeman?
A sleeping policeman is essentially a speed bump or speed ramp. Once installed a speed ramp helps to reduce the speed of oncoming traffic where required. Sleeping policemen ramps are perfect for the likes of busy industrial estates, car parks, and warehouses.
Installing a sleeping policeman not only helps to slow down traffic it also helps to promote safe driving in busy environments. One of our best-selling sleeping policeman products is the XPT-50 Speed Bump Kit 50mm. This bump is ideal for both car and HGV traffic. They reduce car or truck speeds to as low as 10mph. These ramps come in 500mm sections which allow for quick installation where required. The kits will also include all fixings and a drillbit for quick and easy installation.
How easy is it to install sleeping policemen?
Sleeping policeman ramps can be installed quickly where needed.
1) Mark the holes for each piece including mid-sections and end-caps and drill down as required
2) Once ready you can then tighten each fixing into the hole
3) Repeat this process for the rest of the sections until complete
