The Type II barricade is a versatile and highly effective solution for directing traffic or marking hazardous areas. With two reflective panels, this barricade provides improved visibility compared to the Type I barricade, making it suitable for moderate to high-traffic zones. Constructed from durable materials like high-density plastic or steel, it can withstand environmental challenges such as rain, wind, and UV exposure, ensuring long-lasting use.
The barricade’s stable base prevents tipping, and it can be weighted further for use in areas with high winds or traffic speeds. Designed for portability, the Type II barricade is lightweight and foldable, making it easy to transport and store. Its reflective panels meet MUTCD guidelines, ensuring compliance with safety standards for optimal performance in guiding traffic.

A plastic expandable barrier is a flexible and lightweight safety device designed to temporarily block access to specific areas. Made from durable, UV-resistant materials, it can be easily expanded or contracted to fit different widths, making it ideal for various applications such as roadworks, construction sites, and event management.
OPTsigns offers two main types of expandable barriers: the plastic expandable barrier and the steel expandable barrier. The plastic option is lightweight and portable, ideal for temporary use, while the steel version offers enhanced durability for more demanding environments.
To install an expandable safety barrier fence, unfold the barrier, place it at the desired location, and secure it by extending its legs or fixing its base. For additional stability, water can be injected into certain plastic expandable barriers, especially for outdoor use.
A boom gate is a mechanized arm that rises and falls to control vehicle access, typically used at parking lots or toll booths. In contrast, an expandable barrier gate is a flexible, manual structure designed to block entry points temporarily, offering versatility in areas requiring quick deployment.
While not as strong as steel, a plastic expandable barrier provides sufficient protection for low-impact areas like parking lots, roadworks, or warehouses. Its lightweight design allows for easy transport, and water-injection features increase its stability for outdoor use.
