Park-It Curbs Installation Guide

 

 Components

1. •Park-It car stops
   

2. •1/2" (diameter), 14" (length) rebar spikes for asphalt or lag bolts with metal shields for concrete - available at GNR
   

 

What You Need

1. •Gloves, safety glasses
   

2. •Traffic cones, drums or barricades for securing the site
   

3. •Mallet
   

4. •Heavy duty electric drill
   

5. •1/2" masonry bit, and if installed with the lag bolts: a masonry bit required for the metal shields - consult bit size on side of shield
   

6. •A drive socket and a power tool for installation of the lag bolts
   

The flexible design of the Park-It parking curb allows the product to conform to the contour of uneven road surfaces and can be installed on both asphalt and concrete.

 

Step 1.

Drill 1/2" diameter holes (3 - 4" in depth) in the asphalt through the product's holes.

Step 2.

Drive 1/2" rebar spike (14" long) through the holes in the product.

 

Installation Instructions for Concrete:

Installation of Park-It car stops with lag bolts and metal shields

Step 1.

Use 1/2" or 5/8 lag bolts (6" long).

Step 2.

Drill 1/2" diameter pilot holes (3 - 4" in depth) through the product's installation holes.

Step 3.

Remove the product; re-drill the holes for the diameter and depth required by the metal shields

Step 4.

Install the metal shields, re-position the product and bolt with lag bolts. 

Maintenance

Park-It curbs require minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the bolts and tighten if necessary.

The rubber Park-It parking curb is used to effectively guide cars when pulling into a parking stall. It is profiled at 4" high, safeguarding potential damage to today's low, front end car designs. They are more resistant than concrete or plastic curbs.

The Home Park It is used to provide guidance to cars while parking as well as to protect the front of your vehicle. It provides worry free parking for garages, driveways, or carports.
