NCLD Lite in Action

NCLD Lite FAQ

Can one person install NCLD Lite?

Yes. At 24kg per unit, NCLD Lite is designed for single-installer handling without mechanical lifting equipment.

Is NCLD Lite suitable for permanent installations?

Yes. While it is well suited to trials and temporary schemes, NCLD Lite is equally appropriate for permanent cycle lane protection where lighter units and faster handling are preferred.

What is the difference between NCLD and NCLD Lite?

NCLD Lite is half the length (1m vs 2m) and less than half the weight (24kg vs 60kg). It offers more precise positioning on tighter corners but provides the same 130mm height separation.

Does NCLD Lite include reflective elements?

Yes. A retroreflective glass eye is included as standard, along with an M24 anchor thread for additional sign or bollard mounting.

Can NCLD Lite be mixed with standard NCLD on the same route?

Yes. The two products share the same width and height, so they can be combined on schemes that need heavier units on straight sections and lighter units on curves or junctions.
