Quik-Gard Guardrail Delineator: Features & Benefits Video PSS 2013-11-13 | My predecessor created most of this video in 2003 or early 2004. The video explains the benefits of Quik-Gard, as you might guess from the title.In the Summer of 2004, I shot some video of a "Before and After" Quik-Gard installation, and added that footage to my predecessor's. Chuck Mettler, PSS Design Engineer and I had installed Quik-Gard on both sides of Pekin Rd., Newbury OH, the road on which I lived then, and now. Pekin is a two lane township road, with a posted speed limit of 45 MPH. It's very hilly in a lot of stretches. That section of guardrail needed delineation; it's at the bottom of a hill, both east and west-bound, with ponds on both sides. It can get pretty dicey in the winter.My son, then 6 years old, helped me shoot some footage. I remember vividly that I drove while he worked the camera from the front passenger seat.One of these days, I keep telling myself, I will shoot new video of the very same installation. I drive by it a couple times a week; all of the Quik-Gards look the same now, almost 10 years later, as they do in the video. That's 10 years, with no significant wear or damage; they remain in place and are as secure as they were the day we installed them. That's a remarkable testimony to Quik-Gard!
