Street-Guard® Type 4 Pedestrian Fencing: RMS-Compliant Anti-Climb Barriers for Public Infrastructure & Roadside Safety

Designed for maximum deterrence, Street-Guard Type 4 features integrated balustrade spikes to protect pedestrians in busy urban zones. It is the preferred choice for road authorities and councils focused on safety and compliance. Engineered with AS4680-galvanised steel and AS4506 powder coating, this system withstands the harshest roadside conditions. Every component, from Grade 300 steel sections to AS1390-compliant bolts, is built for strength, reliability, and easy maintenance.

Features and Benefits

Built for Superior Pedestrian Deterrence & Traffic Management

Maximum Anti-Climb Deterrence 

Integrated balustrade spikes and a triple-rail design provide a high-security barrier that prevents pedestrians from climbing into hazardous areas. It is the go-to choice for schools, overpasses, and busy urban crossings where restricted access is critical.

Certified RMS Compliance 

Every component, from Grade 250 steel plates to Grade 300 sections, meets AS3678 and AS3679.1 requirements, ensuring seamless approval for government and council projects.

High-Tensile Secure Fixings 

We only use AS1111.1 and AS1390-compliant bolts, nuts, and washers to ensure every connection point is as strong as the steel itself. This prevents loosening due to vibration from heavy road traffic or environmental stress.

Structural Integrity & Precision Welding 

Each Street-Guard unit features welding that complies with AS1554, providing the structural rigidity needed for high-impact urban zones. This robust construction ensures the barrier remains stable and effective under constant public use.

Optimised for Urban Developers 

Street-Guard balances heavy-duty safety with a sleek, professional profile that complements modern public infrastructure. It allows civil contractors to deliver projects that meet strict safety mandates without compromising on urban aesthetics.

DESIGN: Infrastructure-Grade Protection for Busy Urban Corridors

Integrated Anti-Climb Profile

The Type 4 design features a top rail equipped with integrated balustrade spikes. This specific geometry is engineered to prevent scaling and unauthorised access, making it the ideal architectural choice for protecting steep embankments or restricted roadside zones.

By combining Grade 250 steel plates (AS3678) with Grade 300 sections (AS3679.1), the Street-Guard® offers an optimised strength-to-weight ratio. This thoughtful material selection ensures maximum structural rigidity without unnecessary bulk in narrow urban footpaths.

The triple-rail configuration (top, bottom, and feature rails) provides a cohesive, professional look that fits modern streetscapes. It allows urban developers to maintain a consistent visual language across public infrastructure while meeting strict safety mandates.

Our design prioritises clean, continuous welds compliant with AS1554 standards. This not only ensures the barrier can withstand physical stress and vibration from passing heavy vehicles but also provides a smooth, snag-free surface for pedestrians.

Engineered for versatility, the base plate design allows for efficient installation across various terrain types. Whether bolting to existing concrete or casting into new footings, the Street-Guard system integrates seamlessly into any civil construction workflow.

Every unit is designed for the Australian climate, featuring AS4680 galvanising and AS4506-compliant powder coating. This design choice allows for a wide range of colour customisation to match council branding while ensuring the steel remains impervious to coastal or industrial corrosion.

Superior Protection. Seamless Integration. Zero Compromise.

For urban developers and civil contractors, Street-Guard Type 4 represents the perfect balance of rapid integration and extreme durability. Specifically designed for high-traffic zones, this system offers a “set-and-forget” solution that withstands the rigours of busy roadside environments. With its low-maintenance AS4680-compliant finish and robust Grade 300 steel construction, you can deliver a high-quality project that remains functional and visually professional for decades.

APPLICATIONS: Field-Proven Reliability Across Modern Public Infrastructure

For urban developers and government buyers, Street-Guard represents a high-value, low-maintenance asset. Engineered for optimal pedestrian safety, it exceeds AS4680 and AS4506 standards for corrosion resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TfNSW Type 4 pedestrian fencing?

Type 4 is a decorative pedestrian-fencing configuration within the TfNSW R0800 Fencing Series. It combines the recognised pedestrian-control layout with a more ornate visual treatment than the simpler Type 1 and Type 2 profiles. It is therefore well suited to civic, heritage and high-visibility streetscape projects where the fence needs to complement the surrounding urban design as well as guide pedestrian movement.

The standard Type 4 verge configuration is identified by TfNSW drawing R0800-21 and the median configuration by R0800-22. Specifications should also refer to the relevant general, post, footing, base-plate and embellishment details where applicable. Stating the R0800 drawing reference helps ensure the tendered product matches the intended TfNSW profile rather than a visually similar generic fence.

Types 3, 4 and 5 are separate standard configurations in the R0800 series, with different upper profiles and decorative details. The numbering is not a hierarchy of strength or vehicle-containment performance. The correct type is normally chosen by the road authority, architect, landscape architect or civil designer to suit the project drawings and streetscape intent. Substituting one type for another should be approved before procurement.

Yes. Type 4 is particularly relevant where public-domain appearance is important, including town centres, heritage precincts, civic streets and landscaped road upgrades. A more decorative fence can provide pedestrian control without looking like an industrial barrier. Designers should coordinate colour, post caps, adjacent balustrades, street furniture and landscape elements so the fencing forms part of the overall streetscape rather than being treated as an afterthought.

The project specification and R0800 requirements should be followed, with structural steel welding commonly referenced to AS/NZS 1554.1. For safety-critical fencing, the quality of welds matters because the fence is a fabricated system rather than a collection of loose ornamental components. Specifiers can request welding documentation or supporting test information from the supplier where required for project QA and handover.

Hot-dip galvanising requirements should be stated in accordance with the current project specification and the current applicable galvanising standard. AS/NZS 4680 was updated in 2025, so new specifications should avoid automatically copying superseded edition years from older drawings, brochures or tender templates. Where TfNSW coating clauses impose additional requirements, those project-specific requirements should also be included in the procurement documentation.

No. Pedestrian fencing is intended to guide and separate pedestrians; it is not a substitute for a road safety barrier designed to contain or redirect an errant vehicle. Where vehicle containment is required, the road designer must select an accepted road safety barrier system and coordinate the pedestrian fence around it. This distinction is important when fencing is located close to high-speed or high-risk traffic environments.

Include the project drawings, approximate linear metres, R0800 type, verge and median quantities, base-plated versus in-ground posts, required finish, project location and delivery programme. If decorative caps or embellishments are shown, include those details as well. A complete enquiry lets the supplier price the actual specified configuration rather than relying on a generic per-metre allowance that may omit posts, finishes or non-standard components.
