Traffic Control Systems
At HOM Automation Pvt. Ltd., we specialise in advanced traffic control equipment that secures access points, manages vehicle flow, and supports high-security operations. Our traffic control systems in India are known for their durability, ease of use, and long-term performance.
We offer a complete traffic control management system, including portable folding spikes (caltrops), one-way tyre killers, and portable temporary traffic signals. Built with heavy-duty steel and weather-resistant finishes, our systems integrate seamlessly with boom barriers and bollards for comprehensive perimeter defense. Contact us today!
Types of Traffic Control Systems Explained
Caltrops (Portable Folding Spikes)
Portable folding caltrops are rapidly deployable tactical road spikes designed for emergency checkpoints, temporary roadblocks, and high-security interception points, capable of immobilizing unauthorized vehicles instantly.
One-Way Tyre Killer
One-way tyre killers are heavy-duty, spring-loaded or motorized security mechanisms mounted at ground level to permit authorized vehicle movement in a single direction while puncturing tyres of wrong-way intruders.
Traffic Lights & Signaling Systems
High-intensity LED traffic lights and portable signaling units provide clear, energy-efficient visual directions for vehicular flow at industrial gates, toll lanes, and secure commercial entryways.
Understanding Traffic Control Systems & Why It Matters
Managing high-risk entry points and regulating directional traffic flow requires robust physical deterrents such as traffic control barriers. Unmonitored access and wrong-way driving pose serious safety hazards at industrial facilities, toll plazas, and defense perimeters, which is why an automatic tyre killer is often installed at one-way lanes.
Integrating specialized traffic control management systems, including an automated traffic control system, ensures absolute directional compliance, prevents gate rushes, and works in tandem with existing access control architecture like automatic boom barriers and hydraulic road blockers.

How to Choose the Right Traffic Control System
Evaluate whether your site requires temporary rapid-deployment tools (like caltrops) or permanent structural installations (like one-way tyre killers and synchronized traffic lights) based on your threat level and traffic volume.
Why Choose HOM Automation for Traffic Control Systems
Traffic control equipment is often deployed in a hurry, at checkpoints, temporary security cordons, and busy vehicle entrances, so it needs to work without fuss. HOM Automation has been manufacturing vehicle control and security equipment in India since 1993, and that experience shapes every product in this range.
More Than 30 Years of Experience
Over three decades, we have built equipment for the people who manage India’s most sensitive entrances, including defence, police and government users. Our caltrops (portable folding spikes), one-way tyre killers and LED traffic lights are designed around how these teams actually work in the field.
Trusted by Defence, Government and Industry
Our clients include Air Force stations, army cantonments, the Indian Coast Guard, police establishments, refineries and power plants. Our traffic control products are designed to work alongside our boom barriers and tyre killers, so these sites can build a complete, coordinated entry system from one manufacturer.
Designed and Manufactured In-House
Our three factories in Ghaziabad produce the steel components, housings, and controller cards in-house. This allows us to keep quality consistent, adapt products to your site, and supply at factory-direct prices, with OEM/ODM options for integrators.
Works With Your Existing Security Setup
Our traffic lights and one-way tyre killers can be synchronised with boom barriers, loop detectors, and access control systems, so drivers get a clear signal and your guards keep full control of vehicle movement.
Support After Installation
All products are backed by warranty and AMC options, a designed service life of 15 years, and lifetime support. We supply across India and export globally by sea and air, with spares available from our factory.
Trusted by the Indian Armed Forces, government departments, and major industrial sites. View our complete clientele.
Frequently Asked Questions
Caltrops are portable folding spikes used to stop vehicles instantly by puncturing tyres. Made from steel and easy to carry, they’re perfect for temporary checkpoints, emergency roadblocks, or quick deployment in high-risk zones.
The one-way tyre killer uses a spring-loaded mechanical system that allows vehicles to pass in one direction only. If a vehicle tries to move in the opposite direction, the steel spikes damage the tyres. It’s a fixed installation, mounted below ground level, and suitable for toll booths, parking exits, and restricted areas.
Yes, our traffic lights are compatible with 12V dry contact signals and can be integrated with boom barriers, bollards, and road blockers. They come with or without poles and feature high-intensity LED indicators for clear visibility. These portable temporary traffic signals are ideal for industrial gates and commercial spaces.
Yes, all our traffic control equipment is built with heavy-duty steel and weather-resistant finishes. Whether it’s the caltrops, tyre killers, or traffic lights, each product is designed to perform reliably in outdoor environments across India.
No, they require minimal maintenance. Our portable temporary traffic signals use energy-efficient LED lights and durable housings. Routine checks are enough to ensure smooth operation, making them cost-effective for long-term use.
Yes, our traffic control management system covers both needs. Caltrops are ideal for temporary roadblocks, while tyre killers and traffic lights are permanent solutions. Together, they form a complete automated traffic control system for varied environments.
Yes. Our heavy-duty one-way tyre killers are engineered with structural steel teeth and robust foundational bracing designed to withstand high axle loads, making them effective at stopping both light vehicles and heavy commercial trucks attempting wrong-way entry.
Yes. While mechanical systems like caltrops and spring-loaded tyre killers require no power, our automated traffic signaling and integrated electronic control units feature low power consumption and support backup power sources for continuous operation.
