Skate deterrents are a cost-effective solution for protecting public and private properties against damage caused by skateboarders and skaters.

We can install these devices or structures on a variety of surfaces. Such as ledges, handrails, and other areas that are popular among skaters.

Types

One common type is the skateboard deterrents for handrails, which use metal spikes or studs. Installers put these spikes on surfaces, which makes it difficult or impossible for skaters to grind or slide on the surface because it will damage their decks and trucks. Manufacturers use marine-grade stainless steel, which is known for its durability and resistance to corrosion, to make it a perfect material for outdoor use. They are also fitted with safe rounded edges, preventing any injury to skaters or the general public.

Another type is skateboard deterrents for concrete which uses rough surfaces, such as textured concrete or gravel. These surfaces make it difficult for skaters to maintain control and maneuver, discouraging them from using the area.

Advantages

One of the main advantages of skate deterrents is that they can effectively prevent damage to public and private properties caused by skateboarding. Skateboarders often use ledges, handrails, and other surfaces for tricks and stunts. That results in scratches, chips, and other types of damage. By installing deterrents, such as metal spikes or rough surfaces, property owners can protect these surfaces from damage and maintain the appearance of their property.

Another advantage is that they can help to prevent accidents and injuries caused by skateboarding. Skateboarders are often unaware of the potential hazards of using certain areas and may not be aware of the risks of falling or colliding with others. By installing deterrents, property owners and municipalities can help to reduce the risk of accidents and injuries.

Finally, skate deterrents can be a more constructive way of addressing the issue of unwanted skateboarding than simply banning it from public spaces. If property owners and local government work together with skateboarders to create specific places for skateboarding, it can encourage healthy and active recreation for young people. People can do this while still ensuring that they keep public and private properties safe.
