Looking for protective guarding for your parking lot, around your property, or within your facilities? Highway Guardrail is the most common form of guardrail you’ll find on the market and we here at Ideal Shield are one of the top sellers of the steel guarding system as we carry an extensive inventory of standard Class A 12 Gauge components including W-Beams, I-Beams, and Ends.

But what if you want a stronger, easier-to-install alternative?
