Barriers designed for flexibility and efficient site layouts
Staunton® Barriers are a unique addition to our precast range. Each unit is 3.85m long, 850mm high, and weighs 2.25 tonnes, making them longer and slimmer than conventional Jersey barriers. Their curved, interlocking ends form a pivot joint, enabling you to angle units up to 90° to create corners, bends, or zig-zag configurations without the need for cutting or custom blocks.
With chamfered edges, a high-quality mould finish, and no reinforcement, these barriers are durable, low-maintenance, and easy to install. Suitable for construction sites, events, compounds, and pedestrian zones, they can also be arranged to form small storage bays if required.
