Crowd Control Barricade Photos

For decades, Friedrichs crowd control barricades have been used at major events throughout the United States. From concerts and festivals to parades, marathons, races and large public gatherings, our portable galvanized steel barricades provide a dependable way to manage pedestrian traffic and create secure crowd control boundaries.

Friedrichs has been manufacturing in the United States since 1938 and has specialized in crowd control barricades for decades. More than 10,000 Friedrichs-made barricades were used at the 1996 Olympic Games, and our barricades have also been used at Presidential Inaugurations in 2001, 2005, 2009, 2013 and 2017, as well as during the 2015 Papal Visit.

Concert & Festival Barricades

Concerts, festivals, fairs and other large public events require effective crowd management without permanently restricting pedestrian areas. Portable steel barricades can be quickly positioned to establish entrances, organize lines, separate spectators from restricted areas and direct pedestrian traffic.

Parade & Mardi Gras Barricades

Parades present unique crowd control challenges because large numbers of spectators often gather along streets and intersections for extended periods. Interlocking steel barricades create a visible, continuous boundary while helping event organizers and public safety personnel manage pedestrian movement along a parade route.

Friedrichs has extensive experience supplying barricades for parades and major public events, including the demanding crowd control requirements of Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Our barricades are designed for repeated setup, removal, transportation and storage—important considerations for municipalities, event companies and organizations that use barricades year after year.

Race, Marathon & Triathlon Barricades

Road races, marathons, triathlons and similar sporting events often require temporary pedestrian barriers along courses, intersections, start and finish areas, and other high-traffic locations. Portable barricades allow organizers to establish temporary crowd control areas while maintaining the flexibility needed for setup and removal.
