Overview
Overhead clearance bars help drivers see height limits before entering a structure. Made from durable LDPE plastic, these clearance bars are highly visible, easy to read, and designed to be maintenance-free—so you never have to paint again. Solutions include hanging bars and a standard support apparatus, with color and lettering options to fit site needs.
Features and Benefits
Clearance bar are offered in two styles: a two‑piece spliced bar (4" or 6" diameter, available in many colors) and a tube style with end caps (safety yellow). Lettering or logos can be added for clear height messaging.
For structured installs, a clearance bar apparatus is available; standard specs list up to 13 ft. max height and 10 ft. max length for stable overhead warnings. These parking garage clearance bars are built from LDPE with UV and anti-static additives to resist fading, chipping, and cracking, delivering a maintenance-free solution.
Applications
Use clearance bars wherever overhead assets need protection and clear height communication:
- Drive‑thru lanes
- Parking lots and garages
- Overhead dock doors and forklift passages
- Car wash entrances
- Facility pass‑throughs and storefront overhangs
In these busy areas, drive through clearance bars act as early warnings to help prevent impact with awnings, ceilings, or equipment. The system’s visibility, custom lettering, and color options make it easy to standardize height messaging across sites.
