Manual Parking Lock Post Oman, Key Operated, 600 mm

Description

A manual parking lock post is a plain, tough way to keep a bay free. This one is carbon steel, 76 mm across and 600 mm tall, standing on a 145 by 140 mm base plate that is 10 mm thick, with a lock core at the top and keys supplied. It needs no battery, no remote and no power.

One question decides whether it suits you, and the listing does not answer it. How does your own car get into the bay? We confirm that on the unit, and we show it to you in our Muscat shop before you order.

Manual parking lock post price in Oman, and what you get

Price: OMR 18.000, in stock at our Muscat shop. Fitting is quoted separately once we have seen the bay.

• One manual parking lock post, carbon steel
• Keys, number not published

Not included: anchors and fixing hardware unless we fit the post. The supplier does not list the box contents, so we confirm them before you order.

Key parking lock post Oman: how will your own car get in

The listing calls this a fixed parking barrier with a lock core at the top, and it does not say how the post moves. There are three possibilities, and each one changes how you live with the bay.

We confirm which kind this is on the unit. If it is fixed, it protects a space you do not drive into, such as a pedestrian walkway or a bay boundary.

Dimensions that matter: 76 mm, 600 mm and a 10 mm base plate

A 600 mm post is taller than the 400 mm arm on our automatic locks. Drivers see it easily from a car, and it is hard to miss in a dim basement. It is also tall enough to reach many bumpers, so tell neighbours before you fit one in a shared building.

The 10 mm base plate is substantial. A thick plate resists being kicked, bent or levered, which matters on a post that stands alone in an open car park. The number of anchor holes is not published.

Carbon steel in the Omani climate

Carbon steel is strong and it rusts. A post lasts only as long as its coating, and the listing does not say what the finish is. We confirm it. Coastal bays in Sohar, Sur and Salalah attack paint chips and weld joints first, so a coastal post needs a closer look.

The lock core at the top of the post is the weak point in sand and heat. Grit stiffens a key cylinder, and a core in direct summer sun gets hot to touch. A dry lubricant helps more than oil, which holds sand.

Parking space blocker post, ground lock or automatic lock

If you would rather raise the lock from the car, see our dry battery parking lock and rechargeable parking lock.

Underground car parks and shared buildings

The listing names parking lots, community bays and underground car parks. A shared basement brings its own issues. Lighting is poor, so we can add reflective strips to the post. Drilling through a basement slab can breach the waterproofing beneath it, so we check what is under the surface before we drill.

Agree who holds the keys. A building with several keys in circulation loses control of the bay quickly, and a lost key can leave a car boxed in.

What a lock post will and will not stop

A post stops a driver from parking in your bay. It does not stop a driver who reverses hard into it, and it can damage the car that hits it. The listing gives no rated load, so we quote none.
