FRP Platform Edges

Innovative Design for Train Platform Edges

CCG specializes in the meticulous design of train track border panels, featuring an ingenious retractable edge engineered to adapt to the varying widths of trains. When the edge descends, it transforms into a smooth bridge for commuter trains, allowing for seamless passenger boarding and enhancing the overall travel experience. The clever hinged mechanism empowers the edge to rise, effortlessly accommodating the broader dimensions of freight trains, ensuring safe passage without interruptions. Furthermore, our platforms are outfitted with a durable epoxy-aggregate non-slip overlay, significantly improving traction even in adverse weather conditions, such as rain or ice.

A Commitment to Commuter Accessibility and Safety

In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), our state-of-the-art retractable edges are equipped with vibrant yellow warning tiles at the platform's edge. These ADA-compliant warning pads are thoughtfully designed with raised bumps, serving as a tactile guide for visually impaired individuals, helping them navigate traffic patterns and awareness of any changes in their environment. Moreover, our innovative mini-high platforms facilitate level boarding for individuals with disabilities, strategically located at the ends of low-level platforms to ensure easy access through both the front and back doors of trains. These platforms incorporate thoughtfully designed ramps and elevated loading sections to ease the boarding process.

Streamlined Installation of Retractable Platform Edges

Modernizing outdated, corroded concrete structures with our advanced elevations and angles is essential for guaranteeing the long-term durability of the infrastructure supporting our FRP platforms and ramps. Our efficient installation process allows contractors to replace these structures over a weekend, significantly reducing disruption during peak commuter times. The lightweight composition of our panels not only simplifies the installation process but also accelerates it, standing in stark contrast to the heavier traditional materials. The panels can be quickly placed on sturdy concrete piers using robust stainless steel angles for dependable support and easy connection. For added convenience, clip plates can be bolted to the underside of the FRP panels, while the retractable edges are designed for straightforward attachment to the main platform panels. Our panels incorporate warning tactile indicators to enhance safety further, ensuring a secure commuting experience for all passengers.
