Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about our Gate Barriers, their functionality, and their applications.
What are safety barriers, and why are they important?
Safety barriers are physical structures designed to protect people, vehicles, and property from potential hazards. These barriers are commonly used on roads, highways, and construction zones to prevent accidents and direct traffic safely. They can be made from materials such as steel, concrete, or plastic and are often placed along roadsides, around work sites, or near dangerous curves. The primary purpose of safety barriers is to absorb impact, reduce the severity of collisions, and guide traffic in the correct direction, improving overall safety for both drivers and pedestrians.
What types of road barriers are commonly used?
Common types of road barriers include guardrails, concrete barriers, plastic barriers, and bollards. Guardrails are typically metal and used along highways to prevent vehicles from veering off the road. Concrete barriers are often used in construction zones or on highways for higher impact resistance and stability. Plastic barriers are lightweight and flexible, often used for temporary setups like roadwork zones. Bollards, short vertical posts, are used to protect pedestrians or restrict vehicle access in specific areas. Each barrier type is selected based on the area’s needs, impact risk, and traffic conditions.
How do safety barriers reduce the impact of accidents?
Safety barriers help reduce the impact of accidents by absorbing and redirecting the force of a collision. In the event of a crash, barriers are designed to slow down or stop the vehicle in a controlled manner, minimizing injury to occupants and damage to the vehicle. For instance, guardrails deform upon impact to absorb energy, while concrete barriers prevent vehicles from crossing into oncoming traffic. The strategic placement of barriers on roads and highways helps ensure that crashes are less likely to result in severe injuries or fatal accidents, making them essential for road safety.
