AS1170-Compliant Kwik-Guard® Class 5 Guardrails: Edge-Mounted, 30kN Impact-Tested Vehicle Impact & Pedestrian Safety System for Commercial & Industrial Zones

Engineered for uncompromising safety, the Kwik-Guard Class 5 system provides a robust, dual-purpose barrier for elevated car parks and industrial zones. Independently crash-tested to surpass AS1170.1 30kN impact loads, it offers superior vehicle containment while the integrated 1300mm handrail ensures pedestrian security. Its innovative edge-mount design fixes to a 150mm minimum slab using PRO Stud Wedge Anchors, maximising floor space without sacrificing structural integrity.

Engineered for Elevated and High-Risk Environments

In high-traffic environments like airports, transport hubs, and industrial mezzanines, compliance is non-negotiable. The Kwik-Guard Class 5 system is specifically designed to exceed AS1170 Clause 3.8 requirements, delivering a certified 30kN impact force resistance that protects both the structure and its occupants. 

This dual-action system functions as both a heavy-duty vehicle barrier and a 1300mm pedestrian safety rail, streamlining the installation process by replacing the need for separate systems. 

The hardware (featuring a 20mm drill diameter and 125mm drill depth) is engineered for rapid, secure deployment by civil contractors. 

Whether you are managing a roadside urban project or a high-clearance warehouse, the galvanised finish and robust fixing profile ensure this system withstands the rigours of heavy-duty daily use.

Features

Optimised for Superior Infrastructure Safety

Certified 30kN Impact Resistance 

Exceeding AS/NZS 1170.1 Standards: Independently crash-tested to surpass 30kN impact loads, this system provides a high-tensile shield against vehicle over-run. It offers mission-critical containment for multi-level car parks and loading docks where structural failure is not an option.

Dual-Purpose Safety with Integrated  1300mm Handrail: 

Combining a robust vehicle guardrail with a 1300mm high pedestrian handrail, this system provides comprehensive fall protection. The galvanised 32NB pipe construction ensures a durable, compliant boundary for foot traffic in elevated environments.

High-Strength Precision Anchoring 

Engineered for stability, the system uses PRO Stud Wedge Anchors with an 114mm embedment depth. This ensures the barrier remains immovable under stress, providing long-term structural integrity even in high-vibration industrial zones.

Versatile Substrate Compatibility  

Designed to perform on a 150mm minimum slab thickness, the Kwik-Guard fits seamlessly into most modern architectural specifications. With a 125mm drill depth, it offers a deep-set, reliable fix without compromising the concrete’s reinforcement.

DESIGN: Maximum Protection, Minimal Footprint

Low-Profile Edge-Mount Configuration

Unlike traditional surface-mounted barriers that eat into drive aisles, this system fixes directly to the slab edge. This is critical for multi-level car parks where every centimetre of width allows for safer vehicle maneuvering and increased parking yields.

Designed to withstand and dissipate forces exceeding 30kN impact loads, the system’s geometry ensures the slab remains intact during a collision. This makes it a dependable design choice for high-risk areas like warehouse mezzanines and loading docks.

The use of heavy-duty galvanised steel ensures the system maintains its structural and aesthetic integrity in harsh roadside or industrial environments. The design prioritises longevity, reducing the need for frequent maintenance or costly replacements in public infrastructure.

The design seamlessly merges a high-impact vehicle barrier with a 1300mm pedestrian handrail. By providing a single, streamlined unit rather than two separate systems, you achieve a cleaner architectural look while meeting fall-protection requirements in elevated zones.

The system is specifically engineered for a 114mm fixing embedment depth, providing superior pull-out resistance. This design allows for secure installation on standard 150mm minimum slabs, making it compatible with a wide range of modern commercial concrete specifications.

APPLICATIONS: From Multi-Level Car Parks to Industrial Traffic Zones

The Kwik-Guard Class 5 system is engineered for environments where maximising space and delivering heavy-duty protection are equally critical. Independently crash-tested to exceed AS/NZS 1170.1 30kN impact requirements, it provides reliable protection for both vehicles and pedestrians in demanding applications. The edge-mounted configuration paired with a 1300mm handrail creates a compliant, high-performance barrier solution for elevated slabs, supporting long-term structural integrity.
