This RSJ Armco post comes complete with a built-in handrail extension, allowing for the installation of a 48.3mm diameter handrail above the barrier run. This can be exceptionally useful in areas such as car parks as it prevents pedestrians from climbing over the barrier, and also give them something to steady themselves on should they lose their balance.
Made from the same P224 posts as the rest of our RSJ bolt down posts this upright can be installed in much the same way requiring no excavation. All that is required is a good solid foundation, this can be purpose installed, or a suitable pre-existing hard standing, such as the floor of a multistory car park.
The handrail on this barrier extends above the level of the upright adding to its overall height and putting the rail about waist height. This simple addition to your Armco crash barrier can vastly improve safety and is ideally suited to use in warehouses, in areas where both forklifts and pedestrians operate.
With choices between bolt down, cast in (dig in) z section and RSJ configurations selecting the right post can be daunting. A few considerations can easily help you decide on which system is the most appropriate.
The I-Beam (RSJ) profile Armco post offers improved strength over Z section posts. RSJ posts are ideal for applications where heavier vehicles are present. For Lighter low-speed applications Z-section posts offer plenty of stopping power.
Z-section beams are the post of choice for those who have budget restrictions, as they offer a significant cost saving over their RSJ Counterparts whilst still delivering excellent vehicle restraint performance.
More costly to purchase but generally cheaper to install. Requires a good solid foundation to be installed into such as an existing thick concrete pad. This is the best option for multi-story car parks.
Cheaper to purchase, but requires excavations to install which can add to installation costs. This option is perfect for adding barrier on grassed verges or areas where there is no existing concrete foundation.
