Armco barriers are not a whole lot to look at; they are made of robust steel & designed to fully withstand the impact of an oncoming vehicle. The crash barriers are often located on motorways across the United Kingdom, keeping our drivers safe from oncoming collisions, however they can be used for a range of different purposes, including protecting livestock & machinery.
Versatility & Benefits
Armco barriers are designed to reduce and limit the impact of a vehicle collision. This is because the barriers are made from British Safety Standard corrugated steel that helps to absorb the energy from the impact and in comparison with other forms of safety protection, Armco barriers are an inexpensive solution to gaps in health and safety at the workplace whether in the warehouse, in the car park or on the forecourt.
Armco barriers are made up of standard parts that can be customised to suit your circumstances, this means that installation is quick – there is no need to wait for specialist parts to arrive, there are no complex plans or drawings to be considered.
Armco barriers are a versatile option for protecting people, assets and property against potential harm and damage from a moving vehicle – either accidental or intentional. The barriers are not limited to roadside protection. They can be used to protect utility areas such as electricity pylons, car parks, schools, warehouses – where ever there is a need for collision protection, Armco barriers can be used.
Last but not least, they are a strong and stable protection and a security feature that can be adapted to any environment. Made with standard manufactured parts, the barrier system that you need can be assembled and installed quickly and efficiently, and it can be customised to suit the environment.
Installation
Before installing an Armco barrier, you should consider whether the collision, which could occur, would be more or less dangerous with the barrier in place. Armco barriers do come in a multitude of different shapes and sizes.
