BULL BARRIER Steel Barrier

Bull Barrier is a steel barrier consisting of hot dip galvanized elements powder coated in highly visible safety colours.

More Info

Bull Barrier is a heavy duty traffic/pedestrian separation barrier ideal for use in temporary  roadworks where the workforce will be in close proximity to moving vehicles. It consists hot dip galvanized elements powder coated in highly visible safety colours. Individual base units are 150 cm long x 50 cm wide x 42 cm high and weigh 46 kg.

M.A.S.S. Guard Barrier

M.A.S.S. base unit is a steel barrier consisting of hot dip galvanized elements powder coated in highly visible safety colours.
More Info
Individual base units are 150 cm long x 50 cm wide x 42 cm high and weigh 48 kg. Each unit links together via vertical pins. The various M.A.S.S. top sections can be added as specific jobs demand. Specially adapted units enable the system to rotate through 180°. When an errant vehicle drives on to the base of the system, it helps to stabilise the barrier during impact. M.A.S.S. 1 has been fully tested to T2 W5 providing protection to work force, vehicle drivers as well as pedestrians.

Barrierguard 800 Barrier

Barrierguard 800 can be used for temporary & permanent locations and meets NCHRP 350 TL4
More Info
BarrierGuard 800® is a lightweight, energy absorbing, longitudinal steel barrier for temporary or permanent installation. Positive protection allows workers to focus on their jobs instead of worrying about their safety. This barrier meets the highest safety standards, is the lowest deflecting steel barrier available and is rapidly deployable. On average a team of three will install a 1km length of barrier in one hour.

Pedestrian Barrier

Our pedestrian barriers provide both stability and security with an innovative lockable connector – facilitating crowds and road traffic effectively.

More Info

Our Chapter 8 compliant 2m barriers are wind-resistant barriers, both for indoor and outdoor use. These barriers are commonly used for roadworks, construction, street works and events.

The barriers also adapt to uneven ground to create a solid perimeter along pavements and roads and feature anti-trip barrier feet, which are low profile and made of a high visibility plastic.

Varioguard Barrier

Varioguard is galvanised steel safety barrier offers unique energy absorbing features and enables rapid installation.
More Info
The varioguard barrier has a unit length of 4,000 mm, a height of 900 mm, and a base width of 700 mm. A box beam on top of the unit is connected by SIGMA type posts to the unit base. These posts are bi-directional, and because the system is bolted together, they are field replaceable. The standard element has a weight of only 400 kg, and incorporates an integrated drainage section of 120 mm x 70 mm. Varioguard has been extensively tested, has a small footprint and can be rapidly deployed.

Water Filled Barrier

Slot Block barriers are water filled Traffic Management barriers that fit an industry standard 3.5m x2m mesh fencing panel.

More Info

Our water filled barriers are wind-resistant barriers that fit standard 3.5m x 2m temporary mesh fencing panels. The units are sized at 600mm in height and 1750mm in width, 3500mm when combined. 

The 2 barriers used to support the mesh panels  weigh 14kg when empty and over 300 when filled in, ensuring wind-resistance to up to 57mph.

Overview

Safety barriers are road safety systems which can be used deployed to separate vehicles from roadworks, pedestrians, other vehicles and anything which could potentially cause a collision in the situation where a vehicle loses control. There are many variables to consider when selecting a barrier system. For instance, in a roadworks scenario which is continually changing, the steel barrier will need to be one that can be re-deployed easily. A full height system may be required where pedestrians and vehicles require separation. M.A.S.S Guard has an option to add a mesh panel to the base unit which acts as extra safety for pedestrians and workers and also provides site security. A median barrier prevents collisions between opposing traffic and needs to absorb impact from both sides and should be easily re-deployable.
