Multi-Rail Pedestrian Safety Barrier for Waterside Protection
This quayside safety barrier features a five-rail arrangement to provide enhanced containment and visual definition along waterfront edges.
The post is designed to accommodate:
• 3 x 48.3mm diameter rails in polyurethane (straight runs only), galvanised mild steel or grade 316 stainless steel
• 2 x 25mm diameter rails in galvanised mild steel or grade 316 stainless steel
This combination of rail sizes creates a strong and structured pedestrian guardrail system, offering increased safety in high-footfall waterside locations.
Durable Duracastâ„¢ Polyurethane Construction
Each post is manufactured from Duracastâ„¢ polyurethane, selected for its durability and resistance to corrosion. Unlike traditional cast iron, polyurethane does not rust, making it particularly suitable for exposed marine and coastal environments.
Key features include:
• Duracast™ polyurethane post
• Supplied painted in a single standard Broxap colour
• Curved post profile
• Available root fixed or baseplated
• Also available in ductile iron
As waterside railings, these systems must withstand harsh environmental conditions, including salt air and high moisture levels. The material selection ensures long-term performance with minimal maintenance.
Designed for Quayside and Public Realm Applications
The Quayside Curved PU 5 Rail system is frequently specified in environments where pedestrian safety and boundary definition are critical.
Typical applications include:
• Harbours and marinas
• Canal towpaths
• Riverside promenades
• Coastal walkways
• Regeneration and waterfront developments
• Leisure and hospitality schemes near water
As a pedestrian safety barrier, it provides reassurance for users while supporting open views across the water.
Installation Options for Site Flexibility
To accommodate varying ground conditions and structural requirements, the quayside railings are available with:
• Root fixed installation for maximum stability
• Baseplate fixing for installation onto prepared concrete surfaces
This flexibility supports both new-build waterfront schemes and refurbishment of existing quayside infrastructure.
Integrated Streetscape Design
The Quayside Curved PU 5 Rail system can be specified alongside complementary polyurethane bollards, heritage lighting columns and other pedestrian guardrail systems to create a cohesive waterfront design.
The option of galvanised or stainless steel rails allows further coordination with surrounding materials and finishes.
Key Features
• Quayside railings with five-rail configuration
• Duracast™ polyurethane post
• Combination of 48.3mm and 25mm diameter rails
• Rail options in polyurethane, galvanised mild steel or grade 316 stainless steel
• Root fixed or baseplated installation
• Also available in ductile iron
The Quayside Curved PU 5 Rail system offers a durable and visually appropriate solution for waterside railings, delivering dependable pedestrian safety in demanding waterfront environments.
