Exploring the Functionality and Versatility of Throw Over Barricade Covers

In this blog, we will explore the versatile and stylish world of barricade covers. Our covers are designed to be both functional and practical while improving the barricade’s aesthetics and providing a platform for high visibility advertisements. In particular we will be reviewing our unique Throw Over barricade covers which provide all the functionality of a traditional cover but at a more economical price point.

Understanding Barricade Covers:

Barricade covers, also known as barricade jackets, serve as protective covers for steel barricades commonly used to guide pedestrians in large crowd settings such as parades and sports events or to restrict access in safety applications such as construction sites. When used for safety applications, covers printed with large safety messages help to make the danger clear and minimize the amount of workplace accidents. In crowd management situations, covers provide a large canvas for branding, advertisement, or informational purposes. By utilizing barricade covers for advertisement purposes, businesses can attract attention and generate interest among event attendees or passersby. This increased visibility can lead to enhanced brand recognition and ultimately drive more business.

Fitted or Universal:

Barricade covers can be made of a variety of material which we will cover in the next section, however they are made in two basic designs, fitted and universal. Fitted covers encase the entire barricade and are cut to provide a close fit. This makes for an attractive appearance but does require that you know what brand of barricade you have to get a cover that fits. Universal fit covers do not cover the radius corner (i.e. the curved ‘shoulder’) or the attachment hooks and loops at each end of the barricade. In this way, the cover can be used on any brand of barricade.

What Makes Our Throw Over Cover Unique:

Our Throw Over cover is a universal fit design that features high quality manufacturing and is fast and easy to fit onto the barricade. Additionally, The Throw Over is made from one piece of vinyl so there is very limited sewing in its construction significantly reducing its cost. Fitting this cover to a barricade you simple, you throw it over the barricade, attach the inside Velcro loops to the barricade’s top rail and then fasten the loops at the bottom using zip ties.

The Throw Over barricade covers are available in a standard size of 61 inches wide and 37 inches tall. Another option comes in a standard size of 87 inches wide and 37 inches tall providing an even larger surface for printing. Logos or messages can be printed onto one of our wide range of vinyl colors. Alternatively, the entire surface of the cover can be printed to match your specific color requirements.
