Q: What is a surface-mount wedge barrier?
A: A surface-mount wedge barrier from Barrier Stop is a strong safety tool that helps block vehicles from going in or out of certain places. When it’s raised, it forms a wedge shape that blocks the road and stops cars, especially ones trying to break through without permission.
There are two main types of wedge barriers:
- Fixed surface-mount wedge barriers – These are attached to the road and stay in one place.
- Mobile wedge barriers – These can be moved and set up quickly using a trailer. They’re great for temporary use or in areas where it’s hard to dig underground.
