What are vehicle loop detectors?
An induction loop is a cable cut into the road surface that detects metal vehicles. The loop detector in the control panel opens a gate or barrier, holds it open, or stops it closing.
Where they are used
Used on barriers, gates, bollards and car park exits.
Pros

Cons
- Saw-cutting needed

Standards and regulations
Loops form part of the safety and control system assessed under BS EN 12453.
Installation considerations
We plan loop size, saw-cut depth, feeder length and detector channels.
Every installation starts with a free survey. We confirm the specification, give you a written quote, install and commission the system, and hand over with test records and instructions.
Maintenance of vehicle loop detectors
Planned maintenance keeps vehicle loop detectors safe and reliable and gives you records for insurers and inspections. We service CAME and all other makes: we check fixings, wear, power and battery backup, controls and safety devices, adjust and lubricate where needed, test operation end to end and leave a written report with any recommended actions.
Repairs
If your vehicle loop detectors has stopped working, is noisy, is opening or closing on its own or is showing a fault, we fault-find on site and repair it, often on the first visit using parts from our shop. We repair systems we did not install and work on all common makes.
Servicing
Servicing intervals depend on use and risk; most sites have a service at least once a year, busy or safety-critical systems more often. We can set up a service contract with reminders so it is never missed. Installation, maintenance, repair and service prices are POA after a free survey and quote.
