Surface Mount Tire Spike Barriers
Q: What is a surface-mount tire spike barrier??
A: A surface-mount tire spike barrier—also known as a tire shredder or tiger teeth barrier—is a special safety tool used to stop cars going the wrong way or trying to enter a place without permission.
These barriers have metal teeth that stick up to pop the tires of vehicles that aren’t supposed to be there. This helps stop cars that are trying to speed through gates or enter secure areas without approval.
Types of Tire Spike Barriers from Barrier Stop:
Surface-mount:
These sit right on top of the ground, so there’s no need to dig or disturb underground utilities like pipes or wires.
Flush-mount:
These are set into the ground, making the surface smoother for cars that are driving in the correct direction.
Barrier Stop provides both kinds of tire spike barriers to help protect parking lots, driveways, and secure zones from unauthorized vehicles.
How Do Tire Spike Systems Work?
Manual, One‑Way Spike Systems
These have spring‑loaded spikes that pop up from a plate on the road.
They stop cars that try to drive the wrong direction or sneak into places they shouldn’t go.
Advanced Electric or Hydraulic Systems
These spike barriers are built into the ground.
They use motors or hydraulics to raise and lower the spikes when needed.
