Two barricade systems
Crowd Control Barricade Rental Barriers
We offer two galvanized-steel crowd-control systems for a moving Merced crowd, our lighter barrier prevents drift while the heavier steel line is built to federal barricade specifications, providing stability for any rental duration, regardless of the pressure. The choice is yours.
16-Gauge Steel, 21 welded uprights, and 1.5-inch tube frames built for the front row.
Interlocking Bike-Rack Barricades
Our bike-rack barricade uses a simple "hook-and-loop" mechanism. These sections lock end-to-end to create a rigid, freestanding line for parades or festivals, requiring no drilling or heavy ballast to secure the perimeter. Call (866) 330-0268.
Heavy 8-Foot Steel Barricades
This heavy-duty steel barricade is designed for high-pressure crowds and controlled entries. It’s a taller, heavier perimeter that’s built to "hold like a wall," ensuring the line resists breaches and maintains security during demanding events.
Our per-section rental rates are $4–$6 per day, $28–$41 per week, or $41–$55 per month. Every quote includes site measurement, delivery, install, and pickup.
Layout planning
Queue, Lane, and Footprint Layouts
Crowd control is a plan, not a pile of steel. Tell us the footprint and the flow and say "here's the layout," so we can design a barricade run for your Merced event, separating vehicles from pedestrians, adding a printed windscreen wrap where sponsors need branding, and keeping access points open,
Queue & Entry Control
Use our Pedestrian Crowd Control Barricades to form efficient switchback lines for smooth entry management.
Traffic Lanes & Channels
Maintain orderly foot traffic and separate vehicle lanes to ensure safe, efficient flow during busy events.
Parade & Race Routes
We install Pedestrian Crowd Control Barricades for parades and road races, managing site perimeters before clearing the route quickly.
Stage & VIP Protection
Our heavy-duty concert barricade creates a secure steel line that keeps crowds away from stage and vendor zones.
Spec & safety
Weight, Wind Stability, and ADA Gaps
Windy Merced. Our barricades are designed heavy enough to stay upright in high winds, keeping accessible routes open and trip risks off the ground, even when the wind around Merced is exactly why they stand strong.
Built to stay put and stay safe
- Hot-dipped galvanized steel resists rust through rain, heat, and repeated event use.
- Freestanding bridge feet spread the weight low and wide, so the run resists wind and crowd pressure without drilling into pavement.
- Toe boards close the ground-level gap so nobody trips at a busy gate or crossing.
- ADA-width gaps planned into the layout keep accessible routes and emergency egress clear.
Type II or Type III — matched to your term
Short-term event or long-term perimeter, we deliver the right fence rating.
Lightweight Bike-Rack Barricades offer quick crowd control for busy 5Ks and local street parades.
Type III Barricade rentals provide an FHWA-accepted device for extended road-work and secure multi-week perimeter site traffic control.
Need barricades? We design site-specific barricade runs anywhere across the Merced metro once you identify the event footprint and section count.
Common questions
Barricade Rental Questions, Answered
Should I rent bike-rack or heavy 8-foot barricades?
We hear one question most: "which barricade do I actually need?" Interlocking bike-rack lines work for most crowd fencing for events, such as parades or queues, because they lock together quickly—but you should step up to a heavy 8-foot steel barrier if the crowd pushes hard, if you are controlling a main entry, or if the perimeter must act like a solid wall. Call (866) 330-0268.
How much do crowd control barricades cost to rent?
Barricades rent for $4–$6 per day, $28–$41 per week, or $41–$55 per month. Because longer terms lower the daily rate, securing a build site perimeter costs significantly less per section than a single-day festival rental. All delivery, setup, and teardown labor remains included with no surprise fees.
Are the barricades ADA compliant and code-right?
Access stays open. We maintain ADA-width gaps for accessible routes, ensure emergency egress remains clear, install toe boards at high-traffic crossings to prevent trip hazards, provide FHWA-accepted Type III Barricades for work zones, and check what Merced requires for a permit by viewing our delivery coverage map to confirm local regulations.
Will they tip over in wind or under a moving crowd?
Galvanized steel stands firm against the gusts common to Merced, where erratic weather often brings heavy winter rains that overwhelm local flood zones. During site measurement and install, we set our barricades on bridge feet that interlock into a continuous, stable line. This setup spreads wind pressure effectively across the entire run. Call (866) 330-0268.
Do you deliver, set up, and take everything down?
We run the whole job. We handle 24-48 hour delivery and on-site setup for your layout, ensuring crews get it "clean and on time," while we provide same-day dispatch for disaster site securing, delivering barricades across the Merced metro and the surrounding Merced area, then removing everything once finished.
