What is a clearance structure and why is it important?
A clearance structure is a fixed or adjustable post-and-arm system that displays the maximum vehicle height allowed in a drive-thru, parking lot, or restricted access area. It provides advance warning before vehicles reach canopies, signage, or building entrances, preventing costly collisions and property damage.
Where are clearance structures commonly used?
Clearance structures are most often installed at drive-thrus, parking garages, loading docks, warehouses, and covered entryways. They are critical in high-traffic areas where commercial trucks, delivery vans, or buses might exceed safe height limits.
Do clearance structures require professional installation?
Clearance structures should be installed by professionals, especially when anchoring into concrete or aligning with vehicle entry points. Proper installation ensures the clearance height is accurate, secure, and visible to approaching drivers.
Are clearance structures adjustable for different height limits?
Some clearance structures do feature adjustable heights, but fixed arm clearance structures are designed for permanent height restrictions. If your site has varying clearance needs, you can adjust how high or low the clearance bar beneath the structure hangs.
How does the clearance bar work with the clearance structure arm?
The clearance bar hangs down from the fixed arm of the clearance structure. While the arm provides a sturdy overhead frame at the set height limit, the hanging bar gives drivers a clear, visible warning of that restriction before they reach the actual structure. The Height Guard clearance bar is replaceable and customizable with the message of your choosing.
