TL-1, TL-2 and TL-3 Impact Attenuator Rental
Rental and sale of temporary impact attenuators to protect the end of your Jersey barriers. Delivery and installation included, in less than 24 hours near our depots in the Greater Montreal area, Montérégie, and Quebec City-Lévis. Service available throughout Quebec and Ontario.
The end of a barrier run is the most dangerous point of a work zone
The end of a concrete barrier run is a rigid obstacle: a vehicle that hits it head-on stops dead. An impact attenuator is placed in front of that end and absorbs the energy of the crash gradually, protecting the vehicle's occupants and your crews in the work zone.
Our temporary attenuators are MASH and NCHRP-350 certified, approved for MTQ and MTO work zones, and compatible with our MTQ-rated Jersey barriers. We deliver them and install them at the end of your barriers.
Four reasons to rent your attenuators from us
MTQ and MTO approved

Near our Napierville and LĂ©vis depots, we deliver in under 24 hours. 24/7 service for emergencies.
Rent or buy
Rental for the duration of your project, or purchase of new or used units if you need them long-term.
TL-1, TL-2 or TL-3: it all depends on the posted speed
TL-1: 50 km/h
Low-speed urban areas, parking lots, and pedestrian zones. The shortest configuration.
TL-2 : 70 km/h
Secondary roads, collector roads, and moderate-speed urban areas.
TL-3 : 100 km/h
Motorways, expressways, and high-speed roads. The longest configuration, with the most elements.
Where we install our attenuators
Highway work zones
Ends of barrier runs on highways and national roads, lane closures and detours.
Bridges and viaducts
No anchoring or drilling required: a solution suitable for bridge decks and surfaces requiring protection.
Urban construction sites
Work on boulevards and major roads, reserved lane entrances, and tunnel approaches.
Emergency
Accident, breakage, or last-minute closure: rapid response and 24/7 service.
Speed, space, surface and season
The right attenuator depends on the posted speed, the space available at the end of the barrier, the type of surface (concrete, asphalt or gravel) and the season. The cells are filled with water: in winter, a suitable antifreeze such as calcium chloride is essential, otherwise the attenuator freezes and no longer protects.
We recommend the right configuration with your quote. For all the technical details, read our article Understanding impact attenuators for concrete barriers.

Frequently asked questions
Concrete answers to questions from our entrepreneur, engineer and project manager clients.
Choose and rent
When is an impact attenuator required?
Generally whenever a barrier end is exposed to traffic on a road work zone. The required level is set by the traffic control plan and the project owner (MTQ, MTO or municipality). We can help you confirm it.
What is the difference between TL-1, TL-2 and TL-3?
TL stands for âTest Levelâ: this is the North American classification for impact attenuators based on the speed at which the system was tested. TL-1 (50 km/h), TL-2 (70 km/h), TL-3 (100 km/h). The choice depends on the posted speed limit of the road where you are installing it.
Should you rent or buy?
Rental is suitable for a project lasting a few weeks or a few months: installation is included and the equipment is collected at the end. Purchasing, whether new or used units, becomes attractive if you have ongoing projects.
Delivery and installation
What is the delivery time?
Less than 24 hours in the areas served by our warehouses: Greater Montreal, Montérégie, and Quebec City-Lévis. For other areas in Quebec and Ontario, we will confirm the delivery time with your quote. For emergencies, our 24/7 service can be reached at 514-701-5524, 418-570-2900, or 613-369-8383.
Is installation included?
Yes. Our operators deliver the attenuator and install it at the end of your barriers, day or night.
Should the attenuator be anchored to the ground?
No. Our temporary attenuators require neither anchoring nor drilling. They can be installed on concrete, asphalt, or gravel, making them ideal for bridges and surfaces that need protection.
What to do in winter?
The cells are filled with water. In winter, a suitable antifreeze such as calcium chloride is essential to prevent freezing. We will recommend the right preparation for the season.
