Why You Should Consider Using A Manhole Barricade?

As a construction worker, you are always going to run into some manhole covers from time to time. Those things are horrible to deal with: they’re heavy, awkward, and even worse, they’re always in the way. So, what should you do when you come across a manhole cover?
The last thing you want to do is trip over it and fall on top of it, injuring yourself or worse, crushing a coworker. The best solution is to barricade it: drop a barricade behind the manhole cover so that nobody can trip over it.

What Is A Manhole Barricade?
A manhole barricade is a kind of barricade made from steel and plastic. It’s used to block manholes in every country in the world. The Manhole barricade was invented by a man named John Rice, who was the president of a manhole barricade company called barricade corporation.
He invented the manhole barricade after he was nearly killed by a manhole cover, which was also invented by him.
The design of the barricade is a hinged lid, alternatively located on the top of the manhole cover. The lid is typically made of durable iron or thick plastic and is built to withstand a substantial load. There are many advantages to this design, the most notable being the fact that it is much safer than the standard manhole cover.


Benefits Of Using A Manhole Fence

Manhole barriers are a versatile tool in the daily lives of many people. They are used for a wide variety of public and private functions, including construction, application, and warning signs, as well as warning the public of hazardous conditions. Manhole barricades are often used to protect pedestrians from dangerous manholes or other hazards such as trip hazards and open trenches. They are also used to protect utilities from damage by traffic.

Protects The Public: Manhole barricades have been around for centuries in some form or another. They are used to protect public safety, utility workers, and the environment by preventing unauthorized access to a manhole. Manhole barricades are designed to allow authorized personnel to gain access to a manhole by providing a barrier to unauthorized users and vehicle traffic.
Prevents Accident: One of the biggest benefits of barricading manholes is that it helps prevent potential accidents from happening. It can also prevent people from falling into the manhole.
The reason for this is because when people are walking around on sidewalks, it is easy for them to slip and fall. In addition to this, a manhole guardrail may also be used to prevent slippery accidents resulting from water and moisture.
Improves The Area: Additionally, a manhole guardrail may also be used to improve the aesthetics of an area as a barrier against unsightly manholes and other underground infrastructure.
Construction worker's safety: While almost everyone has heard of construction barricades, not everyone knows their purpose. Construction barricades are meant to keep construction workers and others safe when working in a construction area.
Each year, hundreds of construction workers are injured or killed in on-the-job accidents. While there are many causes for construction zone accidents, one way construction workers can be protected from these types of accidents is by the use of construction barricades.

Key Features Of A Manhole Barricade:

  • Lightweight: Even though a manhole barrier is made of sturdy material, it is quite lightweight to carry. You can install and handle it with ease and can put it away without any issue after completing your work.
  • Easy to Install: Installing a manhole barricade is hassle-free. The top of each section of the barricade is integrated with a hinged locking mechanism that helps to form a straight line barrier and by keeping them locked together.
  • Foldable: One of the most beneficial features of a manhole rail guard is it can be folded easily, which makes it convenient to store it at the back of a pickup or van. It won't occupy much space in your vehicle. So it can be used in different work sites. 
  • Durable and Rust-free: Made of aluminum alloy, the manhole guard rail is not only strong and durable but also bright in color and high in corrosion resistance, which is the best replacement for the steel guard rail.

Manhole barricades are a common way to ensure the safety of pedestrians and workers from the dangers of manhole covers. In addition to protecting pedestrians, these barricades also protect the manhole itself from being run over and damaged.
