Chapter 8 Gate Barriers for Temporary Access Fencing and Traffic Management.
The Chapter 8 Gate Barrier is the most popular blow moulded barrier on the market and we realise that they are a necessary piece of building equipment for utility projects, construction sites, road works, and groundwork companies.
Known as ‘The Gate’, our Chapter 8 Gate Barrier is manufactured to provide incredible strength and durability and comes with free standing 360° degree swivel feet. It is manufactured in High Density Polyethylene and comes in hi-visibility orange as standard, although the barrier can be coloured to suit corporate identity, subject to minimum order quantities.
Ideal for use both indoors and outdoors, these barriers are quick and easy to assemble with the hook and eye system and connection from one to another is possible, even on very uneven ground.
The additional option of anti-trip feet offers a great alternative, especially for tight working areas that require enough room for passers-by.
Safety is a top priority at Elite GSS Ltd, therefore all of our products are rigorously tested.
As a result, our barriers conform to traffic sign regulations and general directions along with BSEN8442 and reflectivity requirements BSEN12899-1.
