Expandable Barriers - Safety Barriers & Crowd Control Barriers
We have recently expanded our range of expandable safety barriers to include our new heavy-duty extendable safety barrier on wheels which is available in four sizes. This yellow expanding barrier, or Concertina Barrier, is perfect for restricting pedestrian access during events or when hazards occur. Provided on wheels, the safety barrier can quickly be moved and positioned into place.
What are expandable barriers?
Expandable barriers are designed to temporarily restrict access to specific areas. The temporary barriers are available in various different designs including metal barriers and plastic barriers. The barriers offer a range of features to meet the users needs incluiding lightweight barriers, interlocking barriers, water filled barriers and barriers on wheels.
What are expandable barriers used for & how can they improve safety?
Expandable barriers, or Concertina barriers, are a perfect solution to improve safety at events or during construction works. Used as a temporary solution, the highly visible barriers can provide a cost effective solution to restrict access to certain areas of sites, for example where hazards can be found or for security purposes. They can also be used to encourage the flow of pedestrians or as crowd control barriers during events.
As they are quick and easily to deploy, the barriers can quickly be set up and removed when required, for example, if an emergency occurs or if you temporarily wish to mark off areas. The expanding design allows you to expand the barrier as much, or as little, as required making them suitable for a wide range of areas and, of course, reuseable. Various barriers offer an interlocking design allows you to connect multiple units together to cover your area.
Where are expandable barriers used?
Expandable barriers are used in a wide range of settings including at schools, shops, trade shows, music festivals, public events, building sites and more.

Plastic Expandable Barriers
At The Ramp People we also offer a wide selection of plastic expandable barriers. Our plastic barriers include a range of solutions including barriers on wheels, interlocking barriers and water-filled barriers which can be filled with water or sand to weigh the barriers down. These lightweight barriers are easy to transport and provided with carry handles. Easy to use, they are a popular choice for marking off hazards in schools, offices and shops including spillages on shop floors or to highlight wet floors after cleaning has occurred.
