- Description
- A galvanised steel loose leg crowd control barrier that is frequently used for guiding pedestrian footfall on construction sites/events or providing a low-level perimeter. These loose leg barriers are made using a top tube bar, which is bent to form the shape of the loose leg crowd barrier. A second tube is then welded across the bottom of the barrier. Each barrier is 2.2 m, width, x 1.1 m, height, and is installed by inserting the feet into recycled feet or metal feet bases. Each barrier features a “J hook” connection, which ensures quick and simple installation. These barriers are supplied with a galvanised finish as standard, but can be powder coated in any colour of the customers choosing.
