Barriers

Regulate traffic flow quickly, flexibly and effectively

Manage vehicle entry with barriers

If you regularly have vehicles passing through your premises, controlling traffic can be critical to safe and efficient operations. Rising-arm barriers help you ensure that only authorised vehicles can enter and exit your site.

Why should I choose barriers?

At any site that contains car parks, delivery bays, or pick-up and drop-off points, you’ll often need to manage significant volumes of vehicle traffic. Road barriers can be an ideal solution for these use cases.

Barriers are fast and responsive

In situations where it’s important to be able to grant or deny access to specific vehicles, you need an entry system that is fast and responsive. Automatic rising-arm barriers can open and close in seconds, making it almost impossible for more than one vehicle to get through in a single cycle.

Barriers can be vehicle-specific

Depending on the security level of your site, you may want an entry system that doesn’t fully close off your perimeter. For example, you may want to allow pedestrians to pass, while regulating the flow of vehicles. In these situations, traffic barriers can be a much more flexible option than gates, which block the entire entry point when closed.

Barriers can resist attack

For high-security environments such as airports and military bases, you may need to implement strategies for hostile vehicle mitigation and sealing off your perimeter. Heavy-duty barriers with security features such as multiple beams and anti-pedestrian skirting can resist attack, while still offering the speed to handle high volumes of traffic.

What types of barriers are available?

Whether you need a simple car park barrier or need to secure your site against hostile vehicles, Heras can help. We offer entrance barriers with a range of designs, dimensions, and security features. That means we can ensure the right level of protection for your premises.
