Hazard Protection with the McCue Pedestrian Barrier

Warehouses can be dangerous places, especially when forklifts and other machinery are buzzing around in proximity to pedestrians. Designating pedestrian walkways and installing pedestrian barriers and railings are some of the many safety measures OSHA recommends to business owners.

At McCue, our Pedestrian Barrier is the most innovative and advanced solution to the problem of pedestrian collisions in the material handling industry. Where traditional barriers or rails break or damage equipment, our guardrails stand up to the challenge.

Made of HDPE and zinc-plated steel, the barrier’s posts and rails provide complete protection by diverting the energy from impacts into the concrete floor. Its modular design can be adapted to fit any space, no matter how big or small.

The rails are a bright yellow and impossible to miss. If you need extra security, install it around areas also protected by our Crash Barrier.

When we tested the durability of our barrier, we found that the lowest tested Pedestrian Barrier Post can take a hit from a 6,500 lb. vehicle traveling at 2.2 miles per hour. It’s that strong.
