Benefits of Expandable Barricades

Versa-Guard® barriers are sturdy, modular accordion barricades that maximize safety and prevent damage with minimal risk to people. Key benefits include:

1. Easy to Add Sections. Create customized, modular configurations or add additional barricade sections quickly. The carrying handles also function as interlocking end posts to connect with additional units for fast adjustments as needs change. No tools or extra hardware is required.
2. Easy to Use, Store, and Move. Versa-Guard^® accordion gates quickly contract and expand for easy setup and tear-down. They are lightweight and nest efficiently in storage.
3. Highly Portable & Durable Construction. Versa-Guard® expandable barricades are constructed of aluminum and steel that can withstand extreme conditions indoors and outdoors. They are designed with portability in mind, weighing only 25 pounds and with an easy-carry handle like a toolbox.
