Why Choose Metal Guard Rails?

Unmatched Durability

Metal guard rails are built to withstand harsh weather conditions, heavy impact, and daily wear and tear. Made from high-quality steel or aluminum, these barriers ensure long-lasting performance and reduced maintenance costs.

Enhanced Safety & Protection

Guard rails are strategically placed to prevent vehicles from veering off roads, protect pedestrians from high-traffic areas, and serve as an essential safety feature in construction sites, industrial areas, and commercial facilities.

Versatile Applications

From highways and bridges to parking lots and warehouses, metal guard rails can be used in a variety of settings. Custom designs are available to suit different levels of protection and aesthetic preferences.

Compliance with Industry Standards

Our guard rails meet local and federal safety regulations, ensuring that your property remains compliant with transportation, construction, and workplace safety guidelines.

Our Installation Process

At Hurricane Fence, we ensure a smooth and efficient installation process to meet your safety needs. Our expert team follows a structured approach for precision and compliance:

Site Assessment & Planning

Our professionals conduct a thorough evaluation of the site, identifying key safety concerns and determining the best placement for guard rails. This includes assessing traffic flow, terrain, and environmental conditions to ensure optimal placement and effectiveness. We also take into account local regulations and industry standards to guarantee compliance with safety guidelines.

Custom Design & Material Selection

Depending on the project’s requirements, we offer customized designs, materials, and finishes to ensure the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics. Clients can choose from various coatings, colors, and materials such as galvanized steel, powder-coated finishes, or stainless steel for enhanced durability. Additionally, we provide design options that integrate seamlessly with the surroundings, ensuring both protection and visual appeal.

Secure Installation

Our skilled installers use high-quality anchors and fastening systems to ensure that guard rails are securely positioned and capable of withstanding impact forces. The installation process includes precise measurements, post anchoring, and alignment adjustments to guarantee structural integrity. Whether installed on concrete, asphalt, or soil, our guard rails are firmly secured to prevent shifting, bending, or breakage over time.

Inspection & Quality Assurance

After installation, we perform thorough quality checks to confirm compliance with safety standards and ensure long-term reliability. This includes structural load testing, alignment verification, and surface inspections to identify any potential defects. Our team ensures that every installed guard rail meets or exceeds industry safety regulations, providing peace of mind to our clients.

Maintenance & Longevity of Metal Guard Rails

Proper maintenance is essential to maximize the lifespan and effectiveness of metal guard rails. Regular care helps prevent structural damage, corrosion, and deterioration caused by environmental factors. Follow these key maintenance tips to ensure long-term durability and safety:

Regular Inspections

Frequency: Conduct visual inspections at least twice a year and after extreme weather events.
Signs to Watch For:
- Rust or corrosion forming on the surface.
- Structural damage such as bends, cracks, or weakened joints.
- Loose bolts, screws, or fittings that may compromise stability.
Preventative Measures: Address minor issues early to prevent costly repairs and maintain the guard rail’s effectiveness

Cleaning & Protective Coating

Routine Cleaning:
- Remove dirt, road salt, and debris using a hose, mild detergent, and a soft brush.
- For stubborn grime, use a pressure washer on a moderate setting.
Protective Coating & Repainting:
- Apply anti-corrosion coatings or fresh paint as needed to protect against rust and wear.
- Use powder-coated or galvanized finishes for long-term durability.
- Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying a new coat of protective sealant.

Immediate Repairs & Structural Integrity

Address Damage Promptly:
- Fix dents, loose fittings, or misaligned sections to prevent further weakening.
- Replace damaged bolts and fasteners to maintain structural integrity.
Professional Assessments:
- For major structural damage, consult a specialist to ensure compliance with safety regulations.
- Regularly tighten and reinforce connections to avoid instability.

Rust Prevention & Corrosion Control

Choose Durable Finishes:
- Galvanized steel offers superior rust resistance and longevity.
- Powder-coating provides a protective barrier against harsh weather and chemicals.
Rust Spot Treatment:
- Sand off small rust patches and apply rust inhibitors to prevent further corrosion.
- Use weatherproof sealants to create an additional layer of protection.
Moisture Management:
- Ensure proper drainage around the guard rail to prevent standing water exposure.
- Avoid prolonged contact with de-icing salts or chemicals that accelerate corrosion.

By following these maintenance practices, metal guard rails will remain strong, secure, and visually appealing for years. Proper care reduces long-term repair costs and enhances safety, making them a reliable barrier for roadways, parking lots, and high-traffic areas.
