What Is a Walkthrough Barrier?
A walkthrough barrier is a taller barrier frame with an opening in the middle. It sits in a run of pedestrian barriers and shows people exactly where they can cross, for example a site entrance, a welfare cabin or a crossing point over a haul road. Because it is 2100mm high, it is visible above the 1100mm barrier line.
Which Walkthrough Do You Need?
| Walkthrough | Opening | Weight | Use it for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Walkthrough barrier, fixed leg | Open | 12kg | Marked crossing points where people pass freely |
| Walkthrough gated barrier, fixed leg | Spring-loaded self-closing gate | 19kg | Access points that should close behind each person |
| Walkthrough saloon barrier, fixed leg | Spring-loaded self-closing saloon gates | 19kg | Self-closing access with a pair of saloon-style gates. Exclusive to Securasite. |
| Walkthrough with accessories and signage | Open, gate or saloon gate | 22kg | Site entrances that need replaceable signs and a sanitiser station on the frame |
All of the above are 2300mm long, 2100mm high and 460mm wide across the feet, made from pre-galvanised steel with a powder-coated gloss finish.
Signs and Welfare Boards
The accessories walkthrough takes 485x550mm signs: Site Safety, Fire Assembly Point, Pedestrian Crossing Point / Beware Heavy Construction Plant and Health and Safety Law. A sun board and a hand soap board, each with dispenser and cartridge, fit the same frame. Signage is supplied separately, and we also offer a bespoke signage service.
Colours and Branding
Walkthroughs come powder coated in red, yellow, green, blue, orange or black, and we can coat to any RAL number to match your barrier fleet or company colours.
Planning Access Points
- Put a walkthrough at each place people need to cross the barrier line, so they are not tempted to move barriers themselves.
- Use a self-closing gate where the line protects plant or an excavation, so the gap does not stay open.
- Match the walkthrough connectors to your barriers: our walkthroughs use hook and eye connectors, the same as our HD pedestrian barriers.
