Trusted Timber Guardrail Systems Across New Zealand
Since 2005, Arco’s Timber Faced Guardrail systems have been protecting roads, bridges, pedestrian pathways, parks and public spaces throughout New Zealand. Trusted by councils, civil contractors and infrastructure professionals, our guardrail systems have been installed in projects from Northland to Southland, delivering long-lasting roadside safety in a wide range of environments.
Major installations include the 2.6 km Zig-Zag section of the Crown Range near Queenstown, 800 metres at Waitawa Regional Park in Auckland, 1,250 metres along Te Mata Peak Road in Hawke’s Bay, and 600 metres on Highcliff Road in Dunedin.
Our G2m and G4m Timber Faced Guardrail systems can be customised to meet the specific requirements of each project, with options including integrated handrails, bridge and abutment terminations, transitions to W-beam guardrail systems, and painted galvanised steel components to complement the surrounding landscape.
To support projects nationwide, we maintain a comprehensive stock of rails, posts and replacement components at our central warehouse in Feilding, enabling fast supply for new installations and ongoing maintenance. If you’re planning a project, we’d be happy to share photographs of similar installations and help you select the most suitable guardrail solution for your site.
