RHINO-STOP® 240 Car Park Barrier | Metal Fencing Specialists

RHINO-STOP® 240 car park barrier is specifically designed to provide impact protection during high speed, high energy collisions. During crash testing, the guardrail complied with the 240kN impact requirement of AS/NZS 1170.1 for end of ramp locations. This compliance is a requirement for car park barriers installed at the bottom of ramps longer than 20 metres.

RHINOSTOP® 240 can also withstand vehicle impacts of up to 30km/h. The guardrail system only requires 2 fixtures per post due to the controlled absorption of vehicle energy by the post.
