A bollard system according to the invention comprises a mounting device and a pole. The mounting device has a mounting body defining a pole receiving passageway and a mounting attachment device disposed on the mounting body. The pole has a pole attachment device disposed on an insertion end of the pole. The pole attachment device removably engages the mounting attachment device to secure the pole within the pole receiving passageway.

An illuminated barrier apparatus used for crowd and vehicle control which offers guidance and notices for and to pedestrians and motorists and affords additional light to an area. The illuminated barrier apparatus has a base, cross-sectional members, a tent-like covering, a lighting system and adaptions to be an illuminated enclosure retrofit embodiment for a Jersey Barrier or adaptions to be a standalone illuminated barrier embodiment.

A collapsible boundary delineator includes a base for placement on a ground surface and a divider member that is movable relative to the base between a raised, operative position and a lowered, inoperative position. The base includes a pair of base members that are engageable with each other, and the divider member includes a pair of spaced apart ends secured one to each of the base members. When the base members are engaged together the divider member is in the raised, operative position and when the base members are disengaged from each other the divider member is in the lowered, inoperative position. A selectively releasable latch arrangement carried by the base members is movable between a latching position for selectively maintaining the base members in engagement with each other and a release position for selectively enabling the base members to be moved apart from each other.

A barrier system includes a handrail, and a connector to couple the handrail to a post extension that extends upward from a floor. The handrail has and end with a width measured in a direction transverse to an elongate length of the handrail. The connector includes a socket to hold the end of the handrail. The socket is defined by an elongate channel that extends in a direction substantially parallel to the post extension when the connector is attached to the post extension. The channel has a length that is greater than the width of the end of the handrail.

A barrier for use with a gate assembly includes a quadrilateral frame comprising top and bottom horizontal members and first and second vertical members, a horizontal gate beam extending longitudinally from a buttress end to a latch end, the gate beam constructed of a W-beam having a web oriented horizontally and extending laterally between first and second flanges, a first stop connected to the buttress end and extending perpendicular to the first and second flanges, a first latch connected to the latch end, the first latch forming a hook comprising a shank extending longitudinally from the latch end, a point located opposite the shank, a gap between the point and the shank, and an opening between the point and the latch end, and the gate beam connected to the frame between the top and bottom horizontal members.

A barrier system includes a plurality of barriers that can be used to form a barrier wall. Each barrier includes a first panel at least partially bounding a cavity and a first leg assembly supporting the first panel in an elevated position. A plurality of spikes are removably disposed on the first panel. A flexible snare is disposed within the cavity of the first panel, the snare being secured to the plurality of spikes so that when the spikes are removed from the first panel, the snare is drawn away from the first panel by the spikes.

The invention pertains to a portable fencing system that provides for easy and versatile positioning and removal. In one aspect, the portable fencing system includes sleeves that are pre-positioned in the ground so as to define a predetermined boundary suitable for a particular repetitive use. In another aspect, a portable fencing system that is without pre-positioned sleeves is described, which is more suitable for applications where the insertion of semi-permanent sleeves is impracticable, or where added positioning flexibility is desired.
