Specifications

Sections that hook into one continuous line.

Clients ask for this section under four names — bike rack barricades, bike rack barriers, metal barriers or event fence. All four are the galvanised run on this page. Each section carries a hook at one end and an eye at the other, so a run assembles by hand in the order it comes off the truck and comes apart the same way. Nothing is bolted, nothing is pinned and a corner is made by standing the next section at an angle rather than by ordering a corner piece. This is the one item in the category built to be leaned on: stanchions mark a route for people who are willing to follow it and barricades hold a line that is under pressure.

In action

Steel on sites we have closed.

  • Steel sections hooked end to end into a continuous perimeter around the working side of an event site
  • Bike rack barricade sections dressed in blue BMO-branded covers, a black sandbag over every foot, closing off an outdoor site in a car park

What it is good at

Six jobs a steel run is sent to do.

  • Site perimeters

    Closing an event footprint and keeping the public out of the working side of it. Most sites have a wall already doing part of that, so measure the line you need to hold rather than the whole boundary.

  • Branded street closures

    A road or laneway held for an activation, with printed scrim over the sections so the perimeter carries the campaign instead of looking like roadworks.

  • Stage fronts and pit lines

    A run across the front of a stage, holding an audience off the deck and leaving crew a working lane behind it.

  • Gates and bag check

    Splitting arrivals into search lanes and holding the queue clear of the scanning point. Every opening you leave is a gap you design in rather than discover on the day.

  • Media pens and vehicle reveals

    A held line with a fixed distance behind it, for the moment when everyone in the room moves forward at once because something has just been uncovered.

  • Load-in, generators and production

    Fencing off trucks, cabling and power once the crowd is inside — the part of the site plan nobody photographs and every inspector looks at.

The usual add-on

Weight at the feet, on the sections that need it.

Sandbags are 25 lb each, black, water-resistant and they carry nylon straps so they fasten to a barricade foot the same way they fasten to a tent leg. They keep a run standing where the surface is smooth, where the ground falls away or where the site is open to wind. Tell us the surface and how exposed the line is and we will say how many the run wants.
