Protect infrastructure and people with guardrails

Guardrails prevent damage to infrastructure, protect pedestrians and guide vehicles in a controlled manner. The choice of the right type of guardrail depends on the specific conditions of the parking lot, such as the type of traffic, risk zones and the strength required.

Analysis

When choosing the right guardrails, the specific needs of the outdoor or indoor parking lot must be identified. Some important considerations are:

  • Protection of infrastructure: Preventing damage to buildings, charging stations, light poles and other facilities.
  • Pedestrian safety: Delineation of walking areas and protection from vehicles.
  • Traffic Control: Clear delineation of driving routes to increase traffic safety.
  • Impact resistance: Depending on the type of vehicles and travel speeds, guardrails must withstand light or heavy collisions.
  • Weather resistance and durability: Materials must be resistant to corrosion, extreme weather conditions and wear and tear.

Different types of guardrails

There are several types of guardrails, each with its own uses and benefits:

  • Steel guardrails: Robust and durable, ideal for parking garages and high-traffic areas.
  • Concrete guardrails: Suitable for areas with heavy vehicles and permanent shielding.
  • Flexible guardrails: Made of plastic or elastic materials, absorb impact and are suitable for areas with light vehicles.
  • Modular guardrails: Dismountable and easy to move, ideal for temporary parking situations.
  • Galvanized guardrails: Weather resistant and low maintenance, suitable for long-term outdoor use.
  • Traffic Control: Clear delineation of driving routes to increase traffic safety.
  • Impact resistance: Depending on the type of vehicles and travel speeds, guardrails must withstand light or heavy collisions.
  • Weather resistance and durability: Materials must be resistant to corrosion, extreme weather conditions and wear and tear.

Expert installation and maintenance

Proper installation and regular maintenance are essential to the longevity and effectiveness of guardrails. This includes:

  • Strategic placement: Catch rails are placed on sensitive areas, such as curves, entrances and exits and along footpaths.
  • Expert fixing: Depending on the type of guardrail, they are anchored in concrete, with bolts or with flexible fastening systems.
  • Regular inspection: Check for damage, rust or loose parts.
  • Maintenance and replacement: Timely repair or replacement of damaged guardrails to ensure safety.
