Flexible additions to our systems for enhanced safety, accessibility, and efficiency
Not every level crossing or track area can be fully addressed with standard solutions. KRAIBURG STRAIL therefore offers purpose-built supplementary solutions designed to meet specific structural, safety, or operational requirements. Whether to enhance accessibility, secure sensitive areas, or improve visibility at crossings, all systems integrate seamlessly with existing STRAIL installations and can be installed just as quickly and easily as our standard level crossing systems.
Our supplementary solutions are versatile, robust, and low-maintenance, providing functionality precisely where conventional solutions reach their limits.
Despite an existing access ban, pedestrians and cyclists were using two railway bridges in Sion as a shortcut. To reduce the risk of accidents, grid panels now provide an effective barrier against unauthorised access to the tracks – flexibly adapted to the site conditions and installed quickly.
To ensure optimal safety and comfort for passengers at the 15 stops of Florence’s Tram Line 1, the gaps between the platforms and the trams needed to be closed. KRAIBURG STRAIL’s flexible and durable edge system provided the perfect solution: it acts as a sturdy cushion while bridging the gap, significantly enhancing boarding safety.
The innovative and sustainable pedeSOLAR system provides self-contained, solar-powered lighting. It delivers clear, additional guidance for cyclists and pedestrians, particularly in school zones in Kaltenkirchen South, Germany. By harnessing solar energy, it helps minimize accident risk in low-light conditions and sustainably enhances traffic safety in an environmentally friendly way.
Massive container cranes require large recesses in the quay to move along their rails. At the Port of Antwerp, these gaps—up to 55 cm deep—posed a significant obstacle and a safety risk for other traffic. Discover how the STRAIL system profil safely bridges the gap, optimizes logistics, and ensures the safety of all vehicles and personnel.
Effective protection against unauthorized access to the track area: At the busy Ulzburg Süd station in Schleswig-Holstein, it only took 3.5 hours to install grid over a 30 m² area. The rubber panels enhance safety and convinced AKN Eisenbahn GmbH of its effectiveness.
The advantages of STRAIL’s supplementary solutions
Safe. Visible. More accessible.
KRAIBURG STRAIL provides tailored supplementary solutions for challenging track environments. They enhance pedestrian safety, increase visibility at night, and ensure barrier-free crossings—all without the need for extensive retrofitting.
grid prevents people from walking on the tracks thanks to its irregular pyramid structure – ideal for protecting people and animals.
pedeSOLAR enhances the visibility of pedestrian crossings with solar-powered LED lights. The system operates autonomously, is durable, and works without any power connection.
edge provides accessible boarding and alighting through flexible, profiled rubber edges, and can also be used at bus stops.
Advantages for operators, maintenance and infrastructure
In addition to safety-focused solutions, KRAIBURG STRAIL offers functional system enhancements: carefully designed, durable features for everyday use.
profile runs alongside the track and is ideal for use in and around maintenance halls and on service roads, ensuring safe and comfortable passage for delivery vehicles and forklifts.
The drainage set drains surface water in the flange groove in a targeted manner and protects level crossings from standing water.
All systems are fast to install, robust, and, when needed, fully compatible with existing STRAIL level crossings.
FAQ on STRAIL’s Supplementary Solutions
What sets grid apart from conventional track barriers?
grid reliably prevents unauthorized access to the tracks thanks to its special pyramid structure, without visual barriers or complex installation. It can be used flexibly between or next to tracks, can be laid by hand and requires no foundations.
Where can edge be used?
edge is ideal for platforms, stops and tram areas where barrier-free access is required. The elastic rubber edge protects vehicles, makes it easier for people with limited mobility to board and alight and can also be used at bus stops.
How do pedeSOLAR’s solar-powered LEDs work?
pedeSOLAR is an autonomous LED system for marking pedestrian crossings. It requires no power connection, charges itself using sunlight, and provides up to 240 hours of illumination—even in low-light conditions. The system significantly improves the visibility of crossings, particularly at night or in poor weather.
How does the drainage kit protect a level crossing?
The integrated drainage system diverts rainwater and surface water away from the level crossings. This improves drainage and reduces the formation of puddles and ice. The set can also be used to ensure optimum drainage of surface water on extremely sloping level crossings.
