Preserve the presentation of your urban landscape with skateboard deterrents
Deterring the most determined skaters and riders from using your external areas as a free-for-all, Classic’s range of Skatestop skate deterrents maintain your property’s presentation and longevity.
With hard-wearing durability, you’ll commonly find our skate deterrents installed across public spaces and architectural features with continuous straight runs, such as retaining walls, planters, street furniture and handrails. Preventing property damage from skate activity, they can also help to minimise noise pollution from unwanted crowds.
Saving you time, money and stress, skateboard deterrents work hard to protect you from potential liabilities such as damage repairs and personal injury claims. A cost-effective asset protection measure that can be safely and discreetly installed, we offer versatile solutions to complement your architectural design goals.
What is a skateboard deterrent?
Available in a range of styles, they are designed to act as mini speed humps along long, smooth surfaces to deter skaters from ‘grinding’ the edges and causing unsightly scratches and chips. They are also commonly referred to as skate stops and anti-skate studs/fittings.
Aesthetically blending into your streetscape, skate deterrents are often machined from weather-resistant, marine-grade stainless steel to withstand the impact force from ‘grinding’.
How do you install skateboard deterrents?
With fast DIY and retro-fitting options available, some skateboard deterrents can be simple to install. Depending on your product, most anti-skate deterrents can be easily secured by pre-drilling the clean, marked areas and using an epoxy adhesive for reinforcement. The adhesive will require time to fully cure so you’ll need to keep people away from the area for the recommended amount of time.
