Guard rails

Steel Guard Rails Designed for Safety and Strength

Guard rails are protective barriers installed along roads, warehouses, ramps, platforms, and industrial areas to prevent vehicles, equipment, or people from accidents. At Steel & Prefabs, we design guard rails to meet real-world load requirements, not just to look good.

A weak guard rail bends or fails under impact. That’s unacceptable in any environment.

Why Guard Rails Are Critical

Guard rails protect people, equipment, and property by containing errant movement. Poorly designed or installed safety guard rails become hazards instead of protection.

Proper industrial guard rails ensure:

• Impact resistance for vehicles and forklifts

• Protection for pedestrians in high-traffic areas

• Secure anchoring to steel structures or concrete

• Long-term durability with minimal maintenance

Ignoring load specifications is one of the easiest ways to ruin a project.

Engineered for Real-World Loads

Our steel guard rails are designed based on site use, expected impacts, and environmental exposure. Each system is engineered to handle repeated force without deformation or failure.

Key design considerations include:

• Expected impact and traffic load

• Mounting method on concrete or steel

• Rail height, spacing, and number of levels

• Corrosion protection for long-term use

This ensures safety without unnecessary overengineering.

Common Applications

We supply guard rails for:

• Industrial warehouses and loading bays

• Traffic control and parking areas

• Pedestrian walkways in commercial and public spaces

• Mezzanine floors and elevated platforms

• Factories and storage yards

Guard rails are integrated with floor layouts, decking sheets, and reinforced concrete to ensure full performance.

Safety Is Not Optional

Guard rails are not decorative barriers. Thin steel, weak fixings, or loose rails are liabilities, not assets.

If you need steel guard rails in Kenya that deliver real safety and durability, Steel & Prefabs provides solutions built for impact resistance and long-term reliability.
