Compact. Bright. Field-Ready. The perfect portable barricade for fast, reliable safety control.
Smart Safety You Can Carry Anywhere
Need a small barricade that still does big work? The Flex-Safe® 60-Inch Yellow Barricade gives you powerful visibility and dependable protection—without slowing you down.
This compact 60-inch model is designed for police officers, firefighters, event managers, campus safety teams, construction crews, and anyone responsible for fast, effective public safety.
Benefit: You get a barricade that sets up in seconds, travels light, and delivers professional-grade control on roads, sidewalks, campuses, job sites, or emergency zones.
Scenes change fast—traffic shifts, crowds move, weather turns, and hazards appear without warning. You need safety equipment that’s ready at a moment’s notice. The Flex-Safe® 60-inch barricade brings the strength and trust of the larger models, but in a more compact size that fits anywhere.
High Visibility for Safer Work Zones
The bright safety-yellow color stands out on busy streets, dim parking garages, and nighttime events. Pedestrians, drivers, and workers can spot it quickly—even from a distance.
The rugged, high-impact frame is engineered for real-world conditions. It remains stable against bumps, wind, and constant movement around the scene.
Because it meets MUTCD standards and features a FHWA-approved structural design, this 60-inch barricade is suitable for temporary traffic control, detours, closures, pedestrian guidance, and emergency response.
Compact but Strong—Built for Daily Field Use
The FS-BN1-60 folds flat in seconds and fits easily in patrol cars, utility trucks, emergency trailers, or facility carts. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for:
-
Narrow walkways
-
Event queues
-
Parking lots
-
Sidewalk closures
-
Maintenance areas
-
Indoor or outdoor crowd control
Even though it’s smaller, it handles tough environments with ease. This barricade is built to last—rain, sun, snow, or street-level wear.
Fast, Flexible Deployment
The folding A-frame design lets one person set it up almost instantly. No tools. No parts to lose. No complicated locks or pins.
When your scene expands, you can connect multiple barricades together for a more secure barrier line. This is ideal for traffic control, crowd guidance, and incident perimeter establishment.
