●     Always install security barriers according to the manufacturer's instructions. Security barriers should be installed by a security company that is experienced and knows what they are doing. Doing it yourself could lead to damage or injury.

●     Make sure that security barriers are properly maintained and in good working order. The installation company will likely offer maintenance packages to ensure the upkeep of your barriers.
