Armco Corners

When installing an Armco crash barrier it is very rare not to need to navigate some sort of change in direction. Depending on the site you are installing the barriers at, there may be a need to go around a piece of expensive equipment, or just to follow the perimeter of the car park. For these instances, corner fittings make the installation process easier, neater and more effective.

All our corner sections are designed to be installed with the support of two posts, these are usually at the termination of the two adjacent barrier runs. Depending on the type of corner you are looking to install these will be secured with either post bolts or post and lap bolts in combination with each other.

All our corners are intended to work at 90 degree angles, however, some of our “flexible” options allow you to bend them to suit more acute, or obtuse angles for sites where a strict right angle would not suit.

Internal Corners

Imagine you wanted to surround the car park in barriers to stop cars from leaving. Internal Armco corners would be used to face traffic inside the car park. If you were to use four corners you would end up with a close loop or barrier, with the face of the barrier facing inwards with the supporting posts on the outside.

External Corners

Now imagine that you wanted to stop cars getting into the car park by putting a barrier around the outside. Using external corners would result in the barrier face pointing outwards, with the supporting legs being on the inside of the barrier.

In reality, most car parks are complex shapes and require a mix and match of Armco barrier corner sections to navigate around pillars, ramps, entrances and exit points.

Galvanised Steel

This is the “standard” finish that these corners are supplied in. The hot-dip galvanised finish offers superior corrosion protection.

Powder Coated

If you want to make your install stand out then powder coated yellow corner sections are the way to go. All powder coated Armco is galvanised before coating.

Plastic Corners

Lightweight with embedded reflectors. These plastic corners are available in vibrant colours and will inflict less damage to any vehicles that make contact with the corner as they are softer than steel.

Fixed Corners

Fixed corner sections are locked at a 90-degree angle and rely on the runs being true and square to align correctly.

Flexible Corners

For installations where a bit of flexibility is required then flexible corners are ideal. They allow more obtuse and acute angles to be formed with ease.
