Updated: Oct 1, 2021

Choosing a Crowd Control Barrier, also known as a pedestrian barrier, can be a difficult process without knowing all the different options available. Here we will go through some of the different types of barrier available, and the types of situations they can be used for.



PLASTIC BARRIERS


Often seen in red and white, these barriers are easy to set up, and use. Can be used for temporary purposes such as road works, to improve social distancing, or for traffic control.


STEEL BARRIERS


Steel barriers are often used at large scale events such as festivals or situations requiring a more permanent solution.

RETRACTABLE BARRIERS


Retractable barriers are often used for temporary events to encourage pedestrians to form queues. Retractable barriers can look smarter than other types of barrier, and can often be used inside, as well as outside.


TURTLE GATE BARRIERS

Turtle gate barriers often come in a variety of dimensions, are expandable safety barriers that have a variety of uses. This includes public transport terminals, construction sites, town centre street works, shopping centres, events, festivals, warehouses, factories, sporting venues and emergency services.
