Fixed Leg Pedestrian Barrier

Our 2.3m fixed leg pedestrian barrier is generally used to segregate areas at events and control the flow of the general public.

This one-piece barrier stands 1.2m high from the ground and interlocks with hooks and eyes to produce a solid barrier line. The panels have offset feet making them easy to stack when not in use. They are specifically designed to be erected and dismantled quickly and to make handling easier.

Temporary Fencing

Standing 2m high by 3.5m wide, our GS7 anti climb fencing has a special close mesh aperture that is ideal for areas accessed by the general public.

Suitable for low to medium crowd densities, the panels can be used to secure areas at events or create a backstage compound, thanks to the three key elements in its anti-climb system – the panel itself, a foot or block and the coupler.

Our temporary fencing is portable and can be deployed quickly. It is also available with special sections, such as pedestrian gates, vehicle gates, back stays and anti-lift devices to form a secure line on virtually any terrain.

Hoarding

Hoarding is portable and quick to deploy. The 2m high by 2m wide panels sit into blocks and are coupled together. The only difference is their opaque front, which provides a solid line of screening. Often used in areas requiring privacy. When combined within fill panels, hoarding enables you to create a secure and private backstage compound and in order to prevent wind damage, the units are braced using grass pins or block trays.

Steel Shield

This alternative to hoarding creates a solid perimeter fence line measuring a lofty 3.4m high.

Unlike other fencing products, these sturdy panels do not slot into blocks–they sit almost flush to the ground. When stood together, the panels create a continuous fence line. If access to the protected area is required, we can also supply complementing vehicle and pedestrian gates.

Suitable for major Music and Sporting events where site security is essential. The panels can also be laid on their side to create a 2.4m high fence.

Concorde Barrier

Our concorde barrier can offer a strong, standalone barrier with maximum branding capacity enabling clients to create a high-profile branded line of barriers whilst not compromising the speed of deployment. Clients can slide in pre-branded reusable boards along the full 3 metre length of the barrier.

Concorde barriers are often used at the start and finish areas of cycle or running events with the angled nature of the barrier and heavy foot ensuring they are stable in windy conditions as well as keeping the crowd away from the athletes during the crucial final stages of the race.

Police Barrier

Our 1.5m steel police barrier is used most commonly in situations where medium to high crowd pressure is expected.

The triangular base is placed facing away from the crowd and is designed to prevent the panels sliding, enabling them to withstand greater pressure than a standard barrier. Subsequently, this type of fencing can be found at the side of stages, mixing positions and on disabled viewing platforms.
