Barnacle Parking is reimagining vehicle immobilization with a simple idea: securing vehicles should be effective, humane, and efficient.

Born out of founder Colin Heffron Sr.’s real-world experience in the UK—where he repeatedly waited days for parking operators to remove traditional wheel clamps—Barnacle was created to solve a problem cities, operators, and drivers alike had quietly accepted as “just how it is.” The result is a smarter, safer alternative to towing and metal boots.

Barnacles are lightweight, windshield-mounted devices that immobilize vehicles without damaging them or escalating conflict. It’s fast to deploy, simple to remove once deactivated, and designed with both operators and drivers in mind. No tow trucks. No impound lots. No unnecessary friction.

Today, Barnacle supports a wide range of use cases. Municipalities, universities, and private operators use it to modernize parking enforcement and curb management. Fleet operators rely on Barnacle for peace of mind, using it to secure vehicles quickly and safely. Finance companies and lenders leverage Barnacle to reclaim auto assets efficiently, reducing recovery time, cost, and risk.
By combining thoughtful design, digital payment workflows, and real-world empathy, Barnacle transforms what is often a high-tension moment into a clear, controlled interaction.

Parking and vehicle security may seem routine—but they represent some of the most frequent touchpoints between people, organizations, and public systems. Barnacle believes those moments matter. When immobilization is fair, transparent, and efficient, everyone benefits.

Barnacles aren’t just a tool—they are a new way to think about how vehicles are secured in modern cities and operations.
