A Timber Guide rail system is a more aesthetic looking system as opposed to it’s galvanized steel counterpart. Whereas galvanized guard systems are what you would find on local and interstate highways. A timber guide rail system is most often found in parking lots of professional office buildings, shopping centers and recreational parks. They can also be found on local bike paths protecting bikers and pedestrians.
These are systems that have been designed to help restrain people and vehicles from entering dangerous or no access areas.
Materials are usually made from high strength pine and treated so they last for decades. Timber guide rails are surface treated to provide a clean and uniform appearance. Whether they are round posts or square posts, all timber guide rails have a great looking, attractive and very finished appearance. These are also a fairly non-complex assembly guide railing system. Timber guide rail systems also utilize weathered steel to give a rustic look where finishing joints are visible.
