Steel Hoop Barrier

Step into a new era of workplace safety with the Steel Hoop Barrier, designed to shield your racking and assets from the rigours of daily operations. This robust rack protector strikes the perfect balance between industrial-grade strength and user-friendly installation, delivering peace of mind without compromising on space.

Beyond mere obstruction, the Steel Hoop Barrier serves as a proactive guardian: it intercepts impacts that would otherwise dent machinery, damage columns or risk injury to personnel. Built to thrive in busy environments, it delivers reliable performance day after day, cutting downtime and maintenance costs.

A sturdy 4 mm steel plate integrated between the legs blocks low-level intrusions by pallet trucks and forklift forks, preventing unseen damage to racking bases and vulnerable equipment. By eliminating gaps beneath the main hoop, it safeguards floor-level assets that are often overlooked by standard barriers.

This thoughtful defence layer also shields personnel from errant prongs that might slip under conventional guards, reducing the risk of leg or shin injuries. Fully engineered for busy loading zones, it offers comprehensive coverage from every angle, so nothing sneaks past unnoticed. 

Every joint and base plate on the barrier is fully welded to deliver unmatched rigidity and prevent loosening over time. By eliminating bolts or rivets that could become weak points, it ensures the structure remains rock-solid even under repeated impacts.

Because the barrier is built as a single, cohesive unit, there’s no need for regular checks on fasteners or worry about parts coming undone. This design choice translates into lower maintenance demands and greater long-term reliability for your workplace. 

Each base plate measures 140 (W) × 160 (D) × 10 (H) mm and is drilled with four 10 mm fixing holes, allowing the barrier to be bolted flush to the floor. Including eight M10 anchor bolts simplifies installation, ensuring a stable foundation without extra hardware. Once secured, the barrier withstands repeated impacts without shifting or loosening, protecting racking and surrounding assets.

By distributing force evenly across both plates, the design minimises stress on the floor and prevents unwanted movement during heavy collisions. This solid anchoring also reduces maintenance needs, as there are no loose components to tighten regularly. The result is a reliable rack protector that remains steadfast under continuous warehouse activity. 

Designed for distribution depots, warehouses and factories, this barrier excels where machinery and personnel share indoor space. Its finish and materials are optimised to resist abrasion and chemical exposure typical of interior industrial settings. This tailored approach ensures consistent performance and safety, even under demanding conditions.

By accounting for lighting, floor types and traffic patterns, the design minimises disruptions while maximising protection. The barrier’s dimensions and installation method integrate smoothly into existing layouts, preserving aisle width and workflow efficiency. This makes it an ideal rack protector for organisations seeking practical, dependable indoor safeguarding solutions.
