Walkthrough Crowd Barrier - Advanced
Advanced Walkthrough Crowd Barriers are manufactured with a spring-loaded gate to help control pedestrian access on construction sites and at events. The walkthrough barriers are connected to standard crowd control barriers using the hooks & eyes on each end. Also referred to as pedestrian access gates, crowd control gates, and pedestrian walk-through barriers, these gated barriers are powder-coated red to increase their visibility to the public & members of staff.

Walkthrough barriers have become increasingly popular over the last few years. In particular, our advanced walkthrough barriers are particularly popular because they incorporate a gate to help maintain crowd control. As standard all of our advanced walkthroughs are also fitted with spring-loaded hinges. This means that the gate offers some resistance when opened and automatically closes itself adding an extra layer of security. The advanced walkthrough barriers are also fit with a bottom bar to increase the structural integrity of the walkthrough barrier and increase their life span on site.
Walkthrough barriers give you the versatility of having a strong crowd control system while having specific safe access points. They have helped address key health and safety issues surrounding crowd and pedestrian control by giving you definitive entry/exit points. Our walkthrough crowd control barriers fit alongside both Fixed Leg Pedestrian Barrier and Loose-Leg Pedestrian Barrier systems.
We chose this barrier because it is a round top walkthrough barrier, rather than a square top. By choosing a round top you reduce the number of joins and therefore eliminate weak spots. This should increase the lifespan of your Walkthrough Barriers. We are committed to providing high-quality products that don't compromise on quality, saving you from frequent replacements.
Our advanced walkthrough crowd control barrier is fitted with a bottom bar which holds the frame together more securely, and a spring-loaded gate with a slam plate. As a cheaper alternative, we also sell a Basic Walkthrough Crowd Barrier that is not fitted with a bottom bar, spring-loaded gate or slam plate.
Pedestrian Safety on Construction Sites
The movement of plant machinery, vehicles and pedestrians presents a significant hazard on larger projects. Sites must be organised so that pedestrians and vehicles can move around safely. The routes around the site need to be suitable for the people and vehicles using them. This includes implementing effective measures such as separating pedestrians from vehicle routes with fencing, ensuring wide enough routes for expected usage, positioning routes for easy access to work areas, implementing safety protocols at vehicle route crossing points, and marking routes with signage. By utilising our walkthrough barriers and adhering to proper safety protocols, you can create a secure environment for pedestrians and workers on construction sites.
Effective controls include:
- separation of pedestrians from vehicle routes by fencing etc.
- wide enough routes for the expected usage.
- routes positioned to allow easy access to work areas.
- steps to ensure safety at vehicle route crossing points.
- clearly marked routes that are well-signed.
Please note that powder-coated barriers have a superior finish, and the colours are commonly used to demark different zones or for branding purposes. However, it is worth noting due to the nature of the product, and its intended purpose, that there can be surface imperfections, such as scratches from time to time. This is because crowd barriers are moved in bulk (we handle over 5,000 a day) around our manufacturing & distribution centres, commonly with forklift trucks. If the finish is of utmost importance then please reach out to our team and we can do our best to ensure there are no imperfections.
