Pedestrian Handrail System (HR50)

Modular Safety Barrier for Defined Walkways and Zoned Protection

Brandsafe’s Pedestrian Handrail System (HR50) is a highly versatile and modular safety solution, designed to define pedestrian routes and create safe zones within busy industrial and commercial environments. Constructed from durable galvanised steel and enhanced with high-visibility polymer safety sleeves, the HR50 system ensures clear separation between pedestrians and potential hazards – ideal for use in areas such as walkways beneath conveyors, low-hanging structures, or alongside sensitive equipment zones.

This modular handrail system is engineered to help facilities proactively manage the flow of personnel and reduce the risk of head and limb clash injuries in low-clearance areas. By clearly delineating protected walkways, the HR50 system not only enhances safety but also contributes to a more organised and compliant workplace.

The system features robust steel uprights and 42.4mm galvanised rails, over which the components slide seamlessly. This allows for rapid, flexible on-site installation, with the ability to cut components to length using a simple chop-saw process – minimising downtime and fitting costs. The finished handrail stands at 1100mm high as standard, offering comfortable and compliant hand-level support in pedestrian zones.

To further enhance its safety credentials and visual appeal, the HR50 system is fitted with yellow and black polymer safety sleeves. These not only provide a warm-to-touch surface that meets DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) requirements, but also offer a smooth, snag-free finish with high visibility. The contrasting colour scheme naturally draws attention to pedestrian walkways, ensuring both compliance and strong visual reinforcement of safe movement areas.

Enhanced Safety and Accessibility Options

The HR50 system can be configured with a range of optional features, making it suitable for a variety of applications:

  • Pedestrian Sprung Return Gates: Offer controlled entry and exit points, automatically returning to a closed position to maintain protected areas.

  • Demountable Shoe Plates: Allow sections of the handrail to be temporarily removed for quick access to equipment or restricted zones during maintenance tasks.

  • Low-Level Barrier Rail Add-on: Can be installed to provide additional protection at foot-level, enhancing visual boundaries and preventing encroachment from mobile handling equipment.

This makes the HR50 system particularly suitable for protecting infrastructure such as LV (low voltage) and IT cabinets, where unauthorised access or incidental contact from MHE (Material Handling Equipment) could lead to damage or safety risks. The system effectively zones off these areas, preventing pedestrian or vehicle encroachment without restricting operational access.
