One-Way Control Flaps (OWF2) are a positive way to help enforce a one-way traffic flow system. Installed in two staggered rows for maximum deterrent value for drivers, the flaps simply bolt down on to a substantial concrete foundation. Each One Way Flap lowers independently as vehicles pass over and returns back to the upright position of 100mm in height. Not suitable for HGV traffic

Manufactured in heavy-duty steel checker plate with a bright yellow finish to make the flaps highly visible to drivers for extra safety, the steel flap is powered by an industrial strength spring. This product can only be installed in areas where the traffic consists of cars and lightweight vans. The traffic flaps will provide unattended 24-hour protection against traffic travelling in the wrong direction!

Maximum speed, the safe limit is 5 M.P.H. so speed ramps should be used to ensure that drivers pass over the traffic flaps correctly at a safe speed. Installed in a staggered row, please note that noise has proven an issue on some residential sites, this occurs when the metal flap hits the concrete or asphalt floor.



Foundation-type One-Way Flaps (OWFR) have been around since the early 60’s. A large counter balanced weight powers the flaps. When a vehicle drives over them, the wheel lowers the flap and the counter balanced weight returns the flap back to its full height of 100mm.

Installed in a staggered row, noise has proven an issue when the metal flap hits the concrete floor. Each flap has to be set in concrete so it is important to have drainage to prevent the flaps retaining surface water.

Bright reflective warning signs will make sure that drivers get the message about driving in a one-way system. The signs can be seen in all weather conditions and at nighttime. Reflective signfaces and the aluminium sign plate are designed to give the finished traffic sign a 10 to 15 year maintenance free life.
