Designed to be flexible, the Quick-Guard fencing system is ideal for a variety of applications from machine enclosures to preventing access to hazardous areas.
Consisting of different components, such as aluminium profiles, patented assembly parts, netlocks, mesh, solid or noise reduction panels the Quick-Guard system can be tailored to meet any requirement.
Thanks to ABB’s patented screw-lock system, all the brackets are supplied premounted with fixing screws and nuts. Due to the profile’s T‑slot, assembly and any further modifications can be easily made.

Applications
ABB’s Quick-Guard fencing system has been designed to be used in a multitude of applications and can easily be customised to suit any requirement. Quick-Guard can be supplied in two formats: Quick-Guard Express and Quick-Guard Standard.
Quick-Guard Express can be installed quickly and is ideal as a cost-effective fencing solution. The customer orders ready-made sections consisting of a few components which makes it easy to install on-site.
Quick-Guard Standard is more advanced than the Express version and uses a sketch or an AutoCAD file of how the user wants the fencing system to look. The information is then transferred to SafeCAD (ABB’s free AutoCAD plugin) and a 3D model of the user’s requirements is rendered with cutting, component lists and quotations automatically generated.
What’s more, these two fencing systems can be combined to achieve a complete system.
Patented assembly function
ABB’s patented guide and locking method allows for simple assembly while keeping expansion easy. The integrated fixing nut can be easily be located within the profile and automatically positions itself when the screw is turned 90 degrees clockwise to allow adjustments. While the fixing nut is in this position, the bracket being fitted can be adjusted and then locked by turning the screw clockwise. To remove the bracket the fixing screw is turned counterclockwise.
Customisable and integrated components
ABB offers a wide range of sensors and control devices specifically designed for the Quick-Guard fencing system. Devices such as Sensors, light grids and emergency stops are easy to mount, adjust and dismount thanks to the profile’s T‑slot and special nuts. The patented assembly means no holes have been drilled so there’s no holes or damage when adjustments are made – keeping the system professional, safe and secure.
