Glare screen improves visibility and helps delineate center barriers and lanes, keepingvehicles on track, reducing accidents and slow downs. The newest version of GlareGaard has a patent pending innovation that creates a defined flex zone so that impactscan bend rather than break the vertical blades. An impact modifying polymer is added to the base resin during molding that makes the finished product pliable and able to absorb impact.

GlareGaard’s integral construction is a large component of impact resistance. When your verticals and horizontals are connected by a large smooth continuous radius you don’t get the point loads and stress concentrators found in other assembled glare screens.
 
GlareGaard is stable and resistant to wind load because of its double walled construction. This stability enables us to use a pliable and flexible material that enables a ductile bend. A white line is left where the vertical blade is bent. This “battle scar” is a sign of success and actually makes that blade more likely to survive a further impact.
 
By eliminating brackets, bolts, lugs, etc. between vertical and horizontal elements, GlareGaard has reduced projectile danger inherent to other assembly-requiring glare screens.
 
Recessed Anchors:
Our molded-in holes are fully recessed meaning that bolts are invisible and less exposed to the public. This has practical, safety and aesthetic advantages.
 
Note that only the anchors connecting adjacent modules have to be attached; additional anchor positions are provided to be used if concrete or spacing issues make it advisable.
