An aluminium swing barrier weighs considerably less than an equivalent steel barrier, which makes daily opening and closing easier, especially with the wider 5–6 metre models. Aluminium does not rust and its surface treatment never needs renewing, so it suits sites where the barrier is not regularly maintained. Reflective tapes come as standard on all models, so the barrier is clearly visible at dusk and in the dark without extra accessories. The 4–6 metre width range covers typical vehicle openings on cottage roads, car parks and industrial areas.
Aluminium or steel barrier?
A steel swing barrier is perfectly adequate for sites with low corrosion stress where the barrier is easy to maintain. Aluminium is worth choosing when the barrier is located on the coast, in a port area or in another environment where salt and moisture attack the metal. Aluminium weighs approx. a third of the weight of steel, so the hinge mechanism wears less and the opening movement is lighter. Over the long term an aluminium barrier needs less maintenance. The coating never needs renewing, and the structure stays intact for decades without corrosion damage.
Reflective tapes and visibility
The aluminium swing barrier is supplied with red reflective tapes that meet the visibility requirements of road traffic legislation without separate warning lights. The barrier is clearly visible at dusk and in the dark. The simple standard specification keeps the aluminium swing barrier the most affordable barrier option in the range.
Typical applications
The aluminium swing barrier suits sites where it is opened anything from a few times a week to a few times a day. On cottage plots and forest roads the barrier keeps out unauthorised traffic but opens quickly when residents arrive. As a car park boundary, the swing barrier directs traffic to the correct gateway and reduces shortcutting. At secondary entrances to industrial areas the aluminium barrier acts as a light obstacle while the main gate is an electric sliding gate or boom barrier.
Aluminium swing barrier price
The price of an aluminium swing barrier depends on the width and accessories. The 4 metre barrier is the most affordable, while the widest 6 metre models cost more due to the additional material and the reinforced hinge mechanism.
