Installing Rubber Speed Bumps On Asphalt
Installing Rubber Speed Bumps on Asphalt surfaces is literally as easy as 1-2-3.
And it does not require any special machinery or equipment either.
The only equipment you’ll need to install rubber speed bumps on asphalt surfaces are:
1. Mallet
2. 1/2 inch diameter x 14 inch long rebar spikes
3. Hammer Drill with 1/2 inch diameter drill bit.
4. Broom
Once you’ve assembled all the tools and equipment, installing speed bumps is very simple and can be done by one person in less than 10 minutes .
Step 1 - Position the rubber speed bump in the location you desire.
Step 2 - With at least one foot on the rubber speed bump at all times, to keep the speed bump from moving, use the hammer drill to drill a 1/2 inch diameter hole, 3 to 4 inches in depth, in each of the speed bumps recessed installation holes.
Step 3 - Remove the Speed Bump from the desired location after pre-drilling all holes.
Step 4 - Redrill each hole if necessary and sweep clean the asphalt surface before resetting the speed bump.
Step 5 - Use the mallet to pound the 1/2 inch diameter rebar spikes down into the recessed pocket provided on the speed bump. Always keep weight on the speed bump while pounding to ensure the bump does not move prior to completion.
That’s it. That’s all there is too installing a rubber speed bump!
