Heavy-Duty Steel Crowd Control Barricades
Friedrichs manufactures barricades for organizations that need durable crowd control equipment designed for repeated use.
Our steel barricades are available in several lengths, heights, foot configurations and coupling styles. Multiple configurations allow you to select a barricade that fits your particular crowd control requirements.
Popular Friedrichs Crowd Control Barricades
F2-B Heavy-Duty Barricade
Our original heavy-duty police-style crowd control barricade. The standard F2-B is approximately 8' 7" long and 43" high and uses our F2 interlocking system.
F2-B-FF Flat-Foot Barricade
The F2-B-FF uses the same heavy-duty frame as our original F2-B with a low-profile flat-foot design. Flat feet are particularly useful when barricades are being used to funnel or direct pedestrian traffic.
FX-7 Barricade
A 7-foot barricade designed to stack straight. Its shorter length and stacking configuration can make transportation easier, including transportation in standard pickup trucks.
F-45 and F45-FF Barricades
These models use narrow couplings designed for compatibility with similarly configured barricade systems. Bridge-foot, flat-foot and other configurations are available depending on the model.
F-48 High-Security Barricade
A heavier 48-inch-high steel barricade designed for applications requiring a more substantial crowd control barrier.
F-72 High-Security Barricade
Our six-foot-high portable steel barrier for applications requiring a taller crowd control perimeter. Available in multiple lengths.
F-38 Low Barricade
A lower-profile steel barricade designed for situations where visibility over the barrier is important, including applications involving seated audiences.

Choose the Right Crowd Control Barricade
Not every application requires the same barricade. Before ordering, consider the length, height, coupling system and foot configuration that will work best for your location and intended use.
Barricade Length
Friedrichs barricades are available in several lengths, with many models offered in 4-foot, 6-foot and 8-foot configurations.
Eight-foot barricades are a popular choice when creating long continuous barricade runs because fewer individual barricades are required. Shorter barricades can be useful for completing runs of specific lengths or where transportation and handling are important considerations.
Flat-Foot Barricades
Flat feet create a lower-profile footprint and are particularly well suited for directing and funneling pedestrian traffic. Their design also makes them a popular choice for many event and crowd management applications.
Bridge-Foot Barricades
Traditional bridge feet work well on uneven terrain and softer surfaces such as grass. They are a practical option for outdoor applications where the barricades may not always be positioned on level pavement.
Roller-Foot Barricades
Roller feet make barricades easier to reposition when a crowd control layout needs to be opened, closed or changed frequently.

Frequently Asked Questions About Buying Barricades
How much do crowd control barricades cost?
Pricing depends on the barricade model, size, foot configuration, quantity and any optional features. Contact Friedrichs for current pricing and a quote based on your requirements.
What size barricades should I buy?
The best size depends on your application. Eight-foot barricades are commonly used for long barricade runs, while shorter 4-foot and 6-foot models can provide additional flexibility and may be easier to transport in certain situations.
Should I buy flat-foot or bridge-foot barricades?
Flat-foot barricades are generally a good choice for funneling and directing pedestrian traffic because of their low-profile footprint. Bridge-foot barricades are particularly useful on uneven or softer surfaces.
