Expandable Barriers - Safety Barriers for Pedestrians

We are excited to announce the expansion of our range of expandable safety barriers to include a new heavy-duty extendable barrier on wheels. Available in four sizes, this yellow expanding barrier, also known as a concertina barrier, is the ideal solution for restricting pedestrian access during events or when hazards arise. Designed for ease of use, this expandable barrier comes equipped with wheels, allowing for quick and easy repositioning whenever needed.

What are expandable barriers? 

Expandable barriers are flexible, portable solutions designed to temporarily restrict access to specific areas. Available in various materials and designs, these barriers are perfect for dynamic environments that require frequent adjustments. From metal barriers to plastic barriers, expanding barriers come with a variety of features to meet your needs, including lightweight models, interlocking designs, water-filled barriers, and units mounted on wheels.

What are expandable barriers used for & how can they improve safety?

Expandable barriers, or concertina barriers, offer an effective and temporary solution for enhancing safety in multiple environments. The barriers are ideal for event safety to limit pedestrian access to certain areas or to manage hazards at construction sites by allowing you to quickly mark off hazardous areas and prevent unauthorised access. The safety barriers are also used to enhance security as they restrict access to specific areas. 

Because they are designed to be easy to deploy and remove, expandable barriers can be quickly set up and adjusted in response to changing conditions, such as an emergency or the temporary need to mark off specific zones. The expandable design allows you to adjust the barrier’s length as needed, making it suitable for both small and large spaces. Furthermore, the interlocking design allows multiple units to be connected together, enabling you to cover a larger area when necessary.

Where are expandable barriers used? 

Expandable barriers are used in a variety of settings, from schools and shops to trade shows, music festivals, public events, and construction sites. Their flexibility, portability, and visibility make them ideal for managing foot traffic, securing hazardous areas, and enhancing safety in a range of environments. Whether you're planning an event, managing a construction project, or ensuring safety at public venues, expandable barriers are a practical, cost-effective solution.
