Stop Fatal Accidents
When individual level crossing panels gap and a cyclist's bicycle wheels drop into one of those gaps, the impending accident can be, and has been, extremely serious. Dangerous gaps inevitably do occur unless a small 'work force' attend the same level crossings time and time again to shunt up panels to close the gaps.

Network Rail Approved
Following successful trials with the support of Network Rail and a subcontractor, the HoldFast End Restraint has now been specified by Network Rail.

Designed and manufactured by HoldFast, a Patent application has been applied for throughout Europe and the Americas. It is an ingenious design permitting simple installation by one man. It is guaranteed not to 'back off' once all the joints in the crossing have been closed up.

Commended

"...The HoldFast End Restraint offers an elegant solution to the long standing problem of longitudinal movement of level crossing slabs leading to dangerous gaps opening up in the road surface. This simple device which mounts under the rail flange will hold slabs in position and has been found capable of closing panel gaps in existing crossings."
