Vertical panels are often used to designate a travel lane, close a shoulder, or narrow the footpath of a sidewalk when construction work is underway. Because vertical panels are functionally equivalent to drums and barricades, they are typically used when limited space prevents the placement of larger traffic control devices. With a rectangular panel of sheeting measuring 8” x 36” and providing 288 square inches of retroreflective material, vertical panels provide excellent visibility in all road conditions.
Details for Vertical Panel:
- Meets M.U.T.C.D. specifications.
- NCHRP-350 crash tested and approved.
- Rubber Base weighs 20 lbs.
- Sheeting area is 8"x36".
Our vertical panels are manufactured with resilient orange polyethylene plastic and a durable recycled rubber base. Stripes are available on front, or on both front and back. Bases and panels stack for ease of transport.
Made with heavy-duty, lightweight fluorescent orange polyethylene, vertical panels are durable, weather-resistant, and portable. The rectangular sheeting adhered onto the plastic panel is available in high-intensity prismatic or full-cube prismatic material. Alternating orange and white stripes measure 6 inches tall and slope downward at a 45-degree angle.
Vertical panels are available in two main styles, single-sided or double-sided, with slight differences in use. MUTCD guidelines note that the direction of the stripes’ downward slope must match the side that traffic is directed toward. When traffic is directed to the left, vertical panels should be oriented so that stripes slope downward to the left. When traffic is directed to the right, stripes should slope downward to the right. Single-sided vertical panels only show one of two sloping directions, while double-sided vertical panels feature stripes sloping downward to the left on the front and stripes sloping downward to the right on the back. With just one double-sided vertical panel, traffic flow can be directed toward either direction.

Vertical panels can be used any time a construction plan requires Type I, Type II, and Type III barricades or channelizer drums. The 8” x 36” rectangular panel of sheeting provides 288 square inches of retroreflective material, exceeding the minimum MUTCD requirements of 270 square inches of retroreflective materials for each barricade type. Similarly, vertical panels provide sufficient visibility to replace channelizer drums when construction zone layouts limit available space. When placed along roadsides with vehicular traffic, NCHRP-350 crash tested and approved vertical panels minimize potential crash damage to impacting vehicles. In addition, panels are specially designed to remain functional even after multiple vehicle impacts.
Each vertical panel purchase includes a tapered plastic panel paired with a 20-pound heavy-duty, recycled rubber base. The base stabilizes the panel and reduces the chances of tip-over from strong wind gusts or turbulence from passing vehicles. Molded handles and an indented grip on the underside of the base makes lifting and placing bases safe and easy, while a molded plastic lip at the bottom of the panel easily supports the weight of the rubber base and ensures the assembled vertical panel stays in place. Fully assembled vertical panels can be stacked for compact storage, or alternatively, panels and bases can be stored separately. The tapered design of the plastic panels allows for stacking without sticking when stored assembled or disassembled. Four stacking lugs and a raised ring minimize movement when rubber bases are stacked, carried, and transported.

Custom black lettering can be printed onto vertical panel sheeting upon request. Common sign messages include “SLOW,” “5 MPH,” or a directional arrow, providing drivers additional information about traffic flow changes when nearing a vertical panel. Additionally, one barricade light can be mounted to the handle of the vertical panel without significantly interfering with its grip.

Vertical Panels Setup and Installation
Vertical panels ship in two parts: a tapered plastic panel and a rubber base. Setting up the vertical panel for use is quick and easy.
Stand the plastic panel upright.
Securely grip rubber base handles on the underside of the base.
Raise the rubber base over the panel, and carefully lower base to the ground.
Once the rubber base has been installed, the vertical panel is ready for use.
