Speed humps

From regulating traffic speed in car parks to providing protection for cables to be laid safely, speed bumps contribute significantly to the safety of your visitors, employees and company vehicles. Aside from commercial premises, speed bumps can also be used in residential and private areas to protect pedestrians and parked cars from accidents.

At Jungheinrich PROFISHOP, you’ll find a wide range of rubber and plastic speed bumps, humps and barriers that can be used for a variety of different purposes. You can buy speed bumps, wheel stops, kerb ramps, guard rails, and even cable fasteners all in our online store.

With attention-grabbing colours and yellow reflectors, our products ensure maximum visibility at any time of day or night and in all weather conditions. In fact, weather proves no issue for our robust products, as they’re made from high-quality materials like vulcanised rubber, polypropylene and PVC.

You can buy speed bumps from us either as a complete set or as individual elements that can be combined separately. The number of base elements, also called standard elements, determines the length of the speed bump, while the two rounded elements at each end protect pedestrians and cyclists from tripping over the humps. Since they come in modules, assembling them is easy and you can transport them with minimal effort.

1. Buying speed bumps: What to consider before making a purchase

Speed bumps are primarily used to reduce the maximum driving speed on residential streets, driveways, car parks and company premises. In other words, their aim is to calm traffic. The height and length of the bumps determine how slow the drivers go, so it’s important to take this into account when buying new speed bumps for your business site or residential area.

At Jungheinrich PROFISHOP, you’ll find a large selection of rubber and plastic speed bumps, each with their own benefits:

• Our speed bumps come in modules, making them quick and easy to set up.
• Bright colours and reflectors enable high visibility.
• You can choose from a variety of crossing speeds (5km/h, 10km/h, 20km/h or 30km/h)
• Structured and robust design provides stability underfoot and slip resistance even in wet conditions.
• Rounded end elements protect cyclists and pedestrians.
• High-quality materials guarantee durability and weather resistance.

2. Choose cable ramps that meet your needs

To safely supply warehouses or construction sites with electricity and water, you should look to use cable ramps. These speed bumps not only protect employees, visitors and customers from tripping, but also prevent vehicles from damaging exposed cables, hoses and pipes. Thanks to their eye-catching colours and robust design, cable ramps reduce the risk of injuries and short circuiting.

To select the right cable ramp for your needs, consider the following factors:

1. Size of the cable duct: The diameter of your cable, hose or pipe must not be larger than the cable duct on the ramp itself.
2. Load capacity: If you need heavy vehicles such as trucks, construction machinery and stacker trucks to drive over your cable ramps, you need them to be extremely robust and stable. Depending on the model, our cable ramps can withstand loads of up to 40 tonnes.

3. Speed bumps for kerbs

Kerb ramps are ideal for allowing wheelchairs, bicycles, cars and other vehicles to easily negotiate pavements and other raised platforms. Our kerb ramps boast excellent visibility, a textured anti-slip surface and a load-bearing capacity of up to 40 tonnes. These weather-resistant rubber ramps can be permanently fixed to the ground with dowels and can also be used as cable ducts.
