Features and Benefits

Proven Pedestrian Safety for High-Traffic Environments

RMS-Compliant Design for Public Safety 

Engineered for optimal pedestrian safety and effective traffic management, the Street-Guard® Type 2 is the go-to choice for councils and road authorities. It provides a standardised, RMS-compliant barrier that effectively guides foot traffic and prevents unauthorised road crossings in busy urban zones.

High-Strength Grade 300 Steel Construction 

Manufactured using Grade 300 steel sections (AS3679.1) and Grade 250 plates (AS3678), this fencing offers superior structural integrity. This industrial-grade strength ensures the system can withstand the daily rigours of high-traffic roadside environments without compromising safety.

AS1554-Compliant Precision Welding 

Every unit complies with AS1554 welding standards. For site project managers and civil contractors, this means a reliable, high-integrity barrier that maintains its structural form under pressure or accidental impact.

Superior Corrosion Resistance 

To ensure a long, low-maintenance service life, all components are hot-dip galvanised to AS4680 standards. This provides a robust protective coating against the elements, making it an ideal, cost-effective solution for coastal or high-exposure public infrastructure projects.

Customisable High-Visibility Powder Coating 

Compliant with AS4506, our optional powder coating adds an extra layer of protection while enhancing visibility for pedestrians and motorists. Available in a range of colours, it allows developers to meet specific aesthetic requirements without sacrificing the fence’s protective qualities.

DESIGN: Robust Protection. Clean Lines. Certified Compliance.

Grade 300 Structural Profiles for Durability

By utilizing Grade 300 steel sections (AS3679.1), the Street-Guard® Type 2 achieves high structural strength without the need for bulky, unsightly profiles. This allows urban developers to maintain a streamlined aesthetic along footpaths while ensuring a robust physical barrier.

The Type 2 configuration is specifically engineered for effective traffic management, providing a clear visual and physical boundary. Its design height and vertical infill spacing are optimised to guide pedestrians safely toward designated crossings, reducing the risk of roadside incidents.

Our commitment to AS1554 welding standards ensures that every joint is as clean as it is strong. For the designer, this means a professional, high-quality finish free from structural defects, maintaining the visual integrity of the public space over time.

Designed to incorporate AS1111.1 and AS1390 compliant bolts and washers, the system features a clean, standardised fastening method. This design choice ensures that hardware is unobtrusive and uniform, which is essential for high-visibility public infrastructure projects.

The hot-dip galvanised finish to AS4680 provides a classic, industrial aesthetic that requires minimal upkeep. This design feature is ideal for councils looking for a “set and forget” solution that retains its clean, professional look despite exposure to harsh weather or urban pollution.

The base plate design, utilizing Grade 250 steel (AS3678), is engineered for flexible installation across various public area gradients. Whether on a flat footpath or a sloped crossing, the Street-Guard® Type 2 adapts to the landscape while maintaining a consistent, level top-rail profile.

Uncompromising Protection for High-Traffic Pedestrian Zones

Engineered for optimal pedestrian safety and effective traffic management, Street-Guard Type 2 is the go-to choice for councils, road authorities, and urban developers. By combining AS/NZS-compliant Grade 300 steel with a hot-dip galvanised finish (AS4680), we deliver a solution that drastically reduces lifetime maintenance costs. This isn’t just a barrier; it’s a durable, pre-certified investment that streamlines project approvals and ensures public safety for decades to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TfNSW Type 2 pedestrian fencing?

TfNSW Type 2 is one of the six standard pedestrian-fence configurations in the R0800 Fencing Series. It performs the same core pedestrian-control function as the other R0800 types but has a different architectural profile, including distinctive round balusters above the main panel. It can be selected where the road authority, council, architect or landscape designer wants a more decorative appearance while retaining a recognised TfNSW fencing configuration.

The main difference is the panel profile rather than a simple increase in ‘strength’ or safety rating. Type 1 has the familiar flat-top appearance, while Type 2 incorporates additional decorative round balusters above the principal panel. Both sit within the TfNSW R0800 pedestrian-fencing family and are intended to control pedestrian movement. The required type should therefore be selected from the project drawings rather than substituted solely on appearance or price.

The TfNSW R0800 Fencing Series identifies Type 2 verge fencing on drawing R0800-17 and Type 2 median fencing on R0800-18, together with the general post and installation details that apply to the fence system. These drawing references are useful in specifications and tender schedules because they remove ambiguity over the required panel profile and traffic-side orientation.

Type 2 can be appropriate where pedestrian control is required but the streetscape calls for a more detailed architectural treatment than the standard Type 1 profile. This can include residential streets, shopping precincts, roundabouts, council upgrades and public-realm works. The selection should still be coordinated with the relevant road authority or asset owner because the visual preference does not replace the need to comply with the project’s TfNSW or council requirements.

For NSW classified-road applications, the key references include the current TfNSW R0800 Fencing Series and the current TfNSW technical direction for installation of pedestrian fencing on NSW classified roads. Fabrication requirements can also call up relevant Australian Standards such as AS/NZS 1554.1 for structural steel welding and the applicable coating standards. The contract documents should always be checked because project-specific requirements can add to the standard drawings.

The internal bar orientation is a deliberate sight-line feature. Verge and median panels face different traffic and pedestrian approach conditions, so the arrangement is configured to help maintain visibility through the fence from the appropriate direction. Correct orientation is therefore more than an aesthetic detail. Panels should be ordered and installed to match the verge or median designation shown on the road-design drawings.

Yes. Steel pedestrian fencing is commonly hot-dip galvanised for corrosion protection and can also be powder coated where the project calls for a particular streetscape colour. Satin black and heritage-style colours are common selections, while other colours can be project-specific. The required coating system, colour and any TfNSW or council coating requirements should be nominated before manufacture so the finish can be priced and documented correctly.

Request the applicable R0800 panel drawings, post and fixing details, product data, welding documentation, coating information and any project-specific supply drawings needed for the tender or construction package. For larger projects, also confirm the verge-versus-median quantities, mounting method and required finish. This gives the architect, civil engineer, contractor and fencing subcontractor a consistent basis for specification and procurement.
