Helping sub-contractors improve traffic control with durable gator teeth from Street Furniture Direct

Controlling vehicle access on public sector projects is a common challenge for sub-contractors, especially when working on car parks, service roads, or restricted areas around hospitals, schools, and council buildings.
Reliable traffic direction and access control are essential to keep sites safe and functioning properly.
Street Furniture Direct’s gator teeth range offers a simple, durable solution that are easy to install and built to withstand heavy, everyday use.
The increasing need for access control
The need for effective access control in the UK has grown significantly in recent years, particularly across public sector projects.
Whether it is a town centre pedestrianisation project that requires better separation between people and vehicles, or public sector buildings such as hospitals require a better traffic flow around sensitive areas; sub-contractors are commonly required to source and install some kind of access control products.
Access control is now an important specification factor in external works projects, and no longer an afterthought.
Why are sub-contractors choosing our gator teeth?
Manufactured from solid steel and securely bolted into a steel trough, Street Furniture Direct’s gator teeth are designed to withstand high volumes of traffic, including cars and HGVs.
The product’s fully welded assembly and galvanised, powder-coated yellow finish ensure long-term durability and high visibility, making them ideal for busy environments such as council car parks, transport hubs, and industrial estates.
Sub-contractors benefit from the option to specify tyre-deflating teeth for high-security sites, or select variable layouts to suit the unique requirements of each project.
Installation is practical and efficient, with root-fixed options that simplify site works and reduce time on site - a key consideration for sub-contractors managing multiple projects and tight schedules.
The modular design, with 3 unit and 4 unit troughs, allows for flexible coverage across different road widths, ensuring that access control is tailored to the specific needs of each public sector project.
