The advantages to using the VANGUARD system are clear

Guide Strip Blue

All Vanguard Detectable Warnings / TWSI’s are liquid applied. This allows them to not only follow the existing contours of your applied surface, but more importantly, Vanguard products will continue to follow the contours of the surface over time. Because Vanguard products are installed using liquid plastic, Vanguard products “become one” with the surface, conforming to every nuance to the applied surface.

Always nonskid, and liquid applied, always “zero clearance” (same height as the applied surface itself).

No more replacing tiles due to freeze / thaw heave, no more trip hazards from edges curling or thick backing plates, and because VANGUARD products literally attach to every micron of the applied surface, water can’t get underneath allowing moisture to degrade the structural surface below.

Due to variations in the surface applied to, GuideStrip may range from 0.18″ to 0.22″ in installed height.
