| Company Description |
Berry Systems manufacture and supply vehicle safety barriers that can truly be relied upon. Since developing an innovative spring steel barrier system for multi-storey car parks in the 1970s, Berry Systems has grown its product portfolio to include a comprehensive range of barriers, bollards, speed restraints and wheel guides for both car parks and industrial situations. Our products are designed, developed and engineered to offer optimum protection from accidents involving cars, vans, HGVs, fork lift trucks and pallet trucks. As health and safety standards have become increasingly important, so has the strength and integrity of our solutions. Today, our vehicle safety barriers can be found in car parks, logistics yards, loading bays, distribution centres, and warehouses all over the UK. Every one of our products is independently tested to meet relevant BS regulations. And now Berry Systems also offer a design and installation service for car park cladding to enable you to be confident that the systems meet the latest standards, requirements and relevant recommendations for car parks of all shapes and sizes.

Here at Berry Systems, we have developed three different kinds of flexible column mounted barrier systems which offer dependable, stylish and cost-effective vehicle and pedestrian protection. The Berry Brisafe system consists of three lengths of wire rope that are anchored under tension to the car park structure. The wire ropes are then fitted with in-fill panels which are available in a selection of colours. System 3 works in much the same way, but uses tensioned steel bars instead of wire ropes and features anti-climb mesh and handrails attached to the in-fill panels.
Lastly, our Flexi-Panel system offers a fast fit solution and includes vehicle barrier, pedestrian handrails and anti-climb mesh. Flexi-panels are preassembled for faster installation and are bolted to columns rather than the car park deck. To find out about how these barriers work and what other in-fill options are available, please follow the link to the Berry Systems website.

The latest ICE/ISE recommendations outline the need for a ‘twice force’ (i.e. 300kN) system in car parks where traffic travel can exceed 20m in length. Twice force barriers need to withstand a 1500kg car travelling head-on at 14.4mph. Primarily this relates to traffic flow aisle ends and opposite down ramps. This requirement is achieved by either using heavier duty systems or, in some cases reducing post centres on standard systems.
