Whether you manage a retail center, office park, or commercial lot, we’ll help you choose the right type of wheel stops and install them correctly for maximum durability and effectiveness.

What Is a Wheel Stop?

A wheel stop—also called a parking stop or parking block—is a low barrier placed at the end of a parking space to keep vehicles from pulling too far forward. Typically made from concrete or rubber, they’re anchored directly to the pavement to prevent movement. Wheel stops are commonly found in commercial parking lots, retail centers, HOAs, and anywhere vehicle control and protection are needed.

They may look simple, but wheel stops play a key role in protecting people, property, and pavement when installed correctly.

Why Install Wheel Stops?

Wheel stops—also known as parking stops—do more than mark the end of a parking space. They help prevent vehicles from rolling too far and damaging sidewalks, curbs, buildings, or landscaped areas. They’re especially useful in high-traffic lots with tight space and limited visibility.

By guiding vehicles to stop in the right place, wheel stops also improve pedestrian safety and help maintain a clean, organized appearance across your lot. They’re a small addition that delivers great value, especially when professionally installed.

Concrete vs. Rubber: Which Parking Stop Is Right for You?

We install concrete and rubber parking stops, depending on what works best for your property. Each type has its strengths:

  • Concrete Wheel Stops are heavy-duty, long-lasting, and ideal for high-traffic commercial lots. They’re a popular choice for businesses that want a permanent solution with maximum stability.
  • Rubber Wheel Stops are lighter, easier to install, and made from recycled materials. They offer more flexibility and are often preferred for areas where vehicles park close to storefronts, curbs, or pedestrian zones.

So, which one is better? It depends on your needs. Concrete is a solid choice for long-term durability in a busy parking lot. Rubber might be the better fit if you’re looking for something easier to handle or reduce the impact on surrounding areas.

Not sure what to choose? We’ll help you decide based on your site layout, usage, and budget.
