Whether it’s in a bank, a construction site, or a parade, the type of crowd control barrier you choose needs to be correct for the job. So what kind of crowd control do you need?
- Post and rope, or tensabarrier, is the most frequently seen type of crowd control for most people. When you stand in line at the airport, the motor vehicle office, and any other number of places, moveable poles and ropes or straps between them guide the line and keep people from cutting in and out. This type of crowd control is subtle and professional.
- Temporary fence, or temporary construction fence, is good for keeping people out of certain areas such as construction sites. Temporary fences are also sometimes used to keep people IN certain areas, such as designated areas during a parade or event.
- Barriers are often made of heavy duty plastic, and can be positioned to keep vehicles as well as people from driving into certain areas. Since a jersey barrier is made of plastic, it can be moved and transported more easily, and is therefore a better temporary barrier than its concrete counterpart.
Like many other things, effective crowd control is all about choosing the right tool for the job!
