Urban Edge Protectors

In today’s modern landscape, seats, benches and garden beds are exposed to damage caused by skateboards, rollerblades and
BMX bikes.

The damage and, in the most extreme cases, destruction of these unprotected surfaces, often render the exposed edge of a seat or bench unsafe and hazardous, costing thousands of dollars to repair or totally replace. In the case of timber seats, splinters are likely to occur. With stone and masonry cracks and chunks of material eventuate leaving the surface unsightly and very uncomfortable for the resting pedestrian.

DTAC Urban Edge Protectors assist in the deterrence and prevention of damage to exposed edges in urban environments.
Without DTAC Urban Edge Protectors, damage and injury
may result requiring a vigilant monthly maintenance program to repair the constant destruction including chipping paint, cracked capping, waxed/marked walls and damaged handrails.

Positioned on the side of ledges, steps, planter boxes, garden edges, seating, benches and even handrails, the DTAC range of Urban Edge Protectors can be placed at regular intervals in critical locations that are likely to be prone to damage. Installing DTAC bars and buttons will enable those in these situations to reclaim their spaces and avoid vast sums of time and money that would otherwise
be spent cleaning and repairing their property.

DTAC’s Urban Edge Protector range combines deterrence with asset protection. Their appearance is discreetly blended within their environment but pronounced enough to deter. Good building and urban design coupled with planning and appropriate installation can make DTAC Urban Edge Protectors a design feature promoting a safe environment for all persons.

Prevention is always better than the cure. DTAC Urban Edge Protectors, whether incorporated at the conception of a project or retrofitted to an existing environment, provide the opportunity for seamless integration through design, product selection and placement.
