Safegate Barrier for Manholes
The all new HDPE plastic street works and manhole safety barrier is here.
Using the latest moulding processes and made from plastic instead of steel, these gates can be battered and scraped all without the worry of weakening from rust corrosion and metal shape retention. Not only are they more durable, they are 30% lighter making these effortless to carry around. The all new design now incorporates top hinges for deploying in straight lines and increasing stability.
PLEASE NOTE: The Safegate no longer features a reflective panel along the bottom of each panel.
Key Details Of The Safegate:
- Ideal for ground works, and protecting pedestrianised areas.
- Prevent access to open manholes, drain, areas of wet flooring, trip hazards and spillages.
- Compact design makes it ideal for use in workshops and even supermarkets.
- One of the fastest barriers to deploy.
- All packages are supplied with chapter 8 reflective strips and all the necessary clips to use the gates.
- Won't get stolen for scrap metal.
- Compatible with SafeBase Foot

Why Use Plastic Instead of Metal?
The metal Safe Gate was an established product well suited to the job of protecting manholes and ground works from being disturbed by pedestrians. The downside to the metal Safe Gates is that after lots of use they start to discolour and rust. They are also prone to denting and bending.
After taking into consideration the issues of the metal safe gate, we now offer a new plastic safe workgate which is Chapter 8 Compliant and has all the same abilities as the metal Safe Gates.
Advantages of Plastic over Metal:
- Does not discolour
- Does not Rust
- Does not Dent/Bend
- Can be used in a straight line
The Metal Safe gate is a well-known and well-liked design, however, the new plastic safe gate surpasses the old safe gate being more durable, easier to use and is also cheaper.
Available Options

Three Gate
The three gate variant of the Safegate barrier is generally used to create a safety zone around open control panels.

Four Gate
Better for smaller open ground works and putting around spills and open manholes.
