Retract-A-Spike

 

Temporary Vehicle Theft Deterrence. Permanent Peace of Mind.

Protect your fleet when it matters most with the Spike Systems Retract-A-Spike™ (RAS), a patent-pending, low-profile, removable vehicle access deterrent engineered for today’s fleet operations.

Designed specifically for fleet yards, rental car facilities, service centers, logistics hubs, dealerships, and secured vehicle storage lots, the Retract-A-Spike provides an effective physical theft deterrent without the permanence or disruption of traditional vehicle barriers.

When security is needed, simply deploy the system. When it’s not, the Retract-A-Spike collapses into itself, remaining virtually out of sight while allowing normal vehicle traffic to continue uninterrupted.

Standard Spike Lane Length: 15 Feet
