Crowd control barriers

Our fixed-leg crowd control barriers effectively direct pedestrian and vehicle traffic, preventing access to unsafe or restricted areas. These barriers are indispensable for safely managing crowds at various events, including large-scale indoor and outdoor events, festivals, demonstrations, sporting events, and public gatherings.

All crowd barriers are approximately 2.3m long, 1.1m high and weigh between 10.6kg and 11.5kg. Our pedestrian barriers utilise a single-tube design with localised welding and heavy-duty offset-fixed legs. To ensure structural integrity, the hook-and-eye connection system facilitates rapid deployment. These barriers can also be called crowd, barricade, pedestrian, event or security barriers, and crowd control fencing.

*We sell these barriers in 3 different colours: standard galvanised, white and red RAL; you can choose your preferred colour in the drop-down on this page and then add them to the cart.*

Description

What is a crowd control barrier?

Standard fixed-leg crowd control barriers provide a simple and effective boundary and perimeter line to protect people from hazards and manage pedestrian flow, preventing overcrowding and accidents. Made from galvanised steel, they are suitable for many scenarios.

The length of a fixed-leg metal crowd control barrier is typically 2.3m.

The standard height of a fixed-leg metal crowd control barrier is 1.1 meters.

The weight of a metal crowd control barrier can vary depending on the specific model, as the standard galvanised barriers are slightly lighter than the painted ones.

  • The galvanised steel barriers weigh approximately 10.6kg.
  • White and red crowd control barriers weigh approximately 11.5kg.

Fixed-leg crowd control barriers are typically made from durable, galvanised steel, which is resistant to rust and corrosion.

For efficient storage and transportation, consider using a crowd control barrier stillage. Stillages can accommodate up to 25 barriers and be stacked for space-saving storage.

These barriers are essential pieces of safety equipment to direct pedestrian flow, create queue lines, and provide clear pathways, entrances and emergency exits. Ideal for large-scale indoor and outdoor events, festivals, demonstrations, protests, marathons, parades, carnivals, airports, bus and train stations, events, road closures, farms, zoos, football games and other sports events.

Here are the main features of fixed-leg crowd control barriers:

  • Each barrier has 2 locking hooks and eyes that interlock them to each other and prevent unauthorised dismantling on-site.
  • They are lightweight to handle and quick to install and disassemble.
  • They have fixed feet that have a domed finish to help prevent crushing.
  • A strengthening bar between the legs is also featured to avoid splaying.
  • They can also be known as metal barriers, “A” frame barriers, barricades and pedestrian barriers.

Fixed leg crowd control barriers can be used both indoors and outdoors.  Here are some examples of indoor and outdoor uses:

Indoor:

Conference centres: Securing meeting rooms and VIP areas.

Retail stores: Guiding customers and managing lines.

Hospitals and clinics: Controlling patient movement and establishing temporary boundaries to optimise workflow and infection control.

Event and exhibition halls: Creating clear aisles, defining exhibit spaces, and managing crowd flow to optimise visitor experience.

Outdoor:

Concerts and festivals: Managing crowd flow, organising queue lines, and delineating stage areas to ensure safety and enjoyment.

Sporting events: Controlling stadium entry, guiding pedestrian traffic, and providing a positive fan experience.

Construction sites: Defining work areas and safeguarding pedestrians from hazards.

Public events and demonstrations: Managing crowds and prioritising public safety.

Our crowd barriers conform to British standards BS EN 10244-2.

How can I make the metal crowd barriers more visible?

You can purchase red and white barriers from ourselves that will stand out. Alternatively, you can add red and white tape to the barrier or personalise the barriers with custom paint to match your company’s branding.  

There are minimal accessories to use with the crowd control barriers; however, you can purchase the 2.5m walkthrough crowd barrier gate and the 16kg ballast blocks that sit over the fixed legs to weigh them down.

They are built using electric resistance welding technology, which minimises zinc disruption, enhancing the barrier’s corrosion resistance.

To ensure stability, you must position the barriers on a flat surface. Installation is a simple, one-person job requiring no tools. Each barrier features hooks and eyes which connect to each other for easy interlocking, allowing for rapid setup of 100 linear meters in approximately 1.5 hours.

No additional fixings are required to connect the crowd barriers.

Before deploying the crowd control barriers, a wind loading risk assessment should be conducted to ensure safe usage. For increased stability in high-wind environments, 16kg ballast blocks can be attached to the fixed legs.

  • The red RAL colour code is RAL3020.
  • The white RAL colour code is RAL 9016.

Red and white crowd control barriers are generally used for increased visibility. A 50/50 red-and-white option is usually a requirement on construction sites and other high-risk areas.

The galvanised crowd barriers are suitable for general use, whereas the red or white barriers are more suited for high-risk locations.

The white barriers are easy to see and less distracting, and the red barriers stand out and are used to alert danger.
