Kwik-Guard® Class 3 brings verified, standards-backed safety to high-movement environments. Crash-tested to withstand 30 kN impacts under AS/NZS 1170.1 and designed in line with AS/NZS 2890.1 for pedestrian guidance, the forward handrail system strengthens car parks and public areas with dependable containment, stable performance, and long-term compliance you can specify with confidence.
Engineered for verified safety performance, the Kwik-Guard® Class 3 Forward Handrail Guardrail is certified to AS/NZS 1170.1:2002, meeting the 30 kN structural impact load required for car parks and public environments. Independent crash testing confirms the system’s stability, energy absorption, and ability to mitigate collisions in low to medium traffic zones.
The forward-positioned handrail undergoes additional validation to AS/NZS 2890.1, ensuring compliant pedestrian guidance, safe circulation paths, and reliable performance in off-street parking facilities. Together, these certifications give specifiers confidence that the system delivers consistent, standards-aligned protection across commercial, industrial, and multi-storey car park applications.
Impact-Rated Protection to AS/NZS 1170.1
Certified to withstand the 30 kN impact load defined in AS/NZS 1170.1:2002 – Structural Design Actions, the Class 3 guardrail delivers dependable crash performance in low to medium traffic environments.
Lightweight Design for Faster Installation
Manufactured with a streamlined W-Beam configuration, the system remains lightweight and easy to handle, allowing quicker installation with standard hardware and reducing labour time on site.
Forward-Handrail for Pedestrian Guidance
The integrated forward-facing handrail supports safer pedestrian movement and aligns with AS/NZS 2890.1 for car park layout and user pathways, improving visibility and guidance in high-movement zones.
Easy to Maintain, Long-Term Reliability
Once installed, the barrier requires minimal upkeep thanks to robust construction and corrosion-resistant finishes, ensuring ongoing protection for car parks, industrial facilities, and public-facing sites.
The Kwik-Guard® Class 3 guardrail is crash-tested and certified to AS/NZS 1170.1:2002, supporting a 30 kN impact load. This ensures the system reliably absorbs collision energy while maintaining structural integrity, providing robust protection for pedestrians and property in low to medium traffic areas.
The robust W-Beam and post assembly acts as a secondary barrier during vehicle impacts, effectively limiting vehicle overrun and deflecting collision forces. Its design also contains debris and small projectiles, safeguarding pedestrians, nearby vehicles, and surrounding infrastructure from potential damage.
At 1000 mm high, the single-height guardrail balances toughness with ease of installation. Lightweight W-Beam construction and pre-configured posts reduce installation time and minimise post-installation maintenance while still providing strong, durable protection.
Engineered and crash-tested to withstand 30 kN impact loads in accordance with AS/NZS 1170.1:2002, the guardrail maintains structural integrity under repeated low-to-medium traffic impacts. This ensures consistent barrier performance, even in high-movement areas such as multi-level carparks and industrial zones.
The system’s lightweight, modular design simplifies transport, handling, and assembly on-site, reducing risk to installers. Standardised anchoring with M16 wedge anchors, cup-head bolts, and base plates ensures secure mounting, while the intuitive modularity prevents installation errors and minimizes operational hazards.
The integrated handrail is positioned forward to guide pedestrians safely, enhancing compliance with AS/NZS 2890.1 off-street car parking standards. This design helps prevent accidents and ensures consistent protection across multi-storey and surface car parks.
Engineered to deliver measurable safety outcomes, the Kwik-Guard® Class 3 guardrail ensures pedestrian and vehicle protection across high-movement zones. It complies with AS/NZS 1170.1:2002 for structural loads and AS/NZS 2890.1 for car park layout and pedestrian guidance. Crash tests confirm its ability to absorb 30 kN impact loads, contain debris, and maintain structural integrity in low-to-medium traffic environments, making it ideal for car parks, industrial facilities, and service corridors.
Forward-facing handrail ensures pedestrian safety and vehicle impact resistance in multi-level carparks.
