Automatic Barriers
We are proud to be leading manufacturers and installers of automatic barriers in Huddersfield and the surrounding areas since 1993.
There are several types of automatic barriers available for different applications. Here are some common types:
- Boom Barriers: Boom barriers consist of a horizontal arm or boom that can be raised or lowered to control vehicle access. They are commonly used in car parks, toll booths, and checkpoints.
- Rising Arm Barriers: Rising arm barriers function similarly to boom barriers but have a vertical arm that rises up to allow vehicles to pass. They are often used in parking garages, residential complexes, and industrial areas.
- Sliding Barriers: Sliding barriers feature a sliding arm that moves horizontally to control vehicle access. They are suitable for locations with limited vertical space or areas where a rising arm barrier is not feasible.
- Swing Barriers: Swing barriers operate by swinging open and closed on hinges to allow or restrict vehicle passage. They are typically used in high-security areas, such as military bases or sensitive installations.
These different types of automatic barriers can be customised with additional features such as access control systems, vehicle detection sensors, and remote operation for enhanced security and convenience. The choice of barrier type depends on the specific requirements of the location and the desired level of access control.
Automatic barriers offer several benefits, making them a popular choice for controlling vehicle access in various settings. Here are some key advantages of automatic barriers:
- Access Control: Automatic barriers provide an effective means of controlling and managing vehicle access to specific areas. They allow authorised vehicles to enter while preventing unauthorised entry, enhancing security and protecting sensitive locations.
- Traffic Management: By using automatic barriers, traffic flow can be efficiently managed, ensuring orderly vehicle movement and minimising congestion. Automatic barriers help regulate the entry and exit of vehicles, maintaining smooth traffic patterns.
- Convenience and Efficiency: Automatic barriers offer a convenient solution for controlling access without requiring manual intervention. They can be integrated with access control systems, such as RFID cards or vehicle recognition systems, enabling quick and seamless entry for authorised vehicles.
- Safety and Security: Automatic barriers contribute to enhancing safety and security by preventing unauthorised vehicles from entering restricted areas. They act as a physical deterrent, discouraging unauthorised access and protecting people and property from potential threats.
- Customisation and Flexibility: Automatic barriers can be customised to suit specific requirements. They are available in various lengths, heights, and designs to accommodate different access points and site conditions. Additionally, they can be integrated with other security systems, such as CCTV cameras or intercoms, for enhanced functionality.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Automatic barriers offer a cost-effective solution for access control compared to manned security personnel. They provide a long-lasting and reliable means of managing vehicle access, reducing the need for manual monitoring and associated labor costs.
- Durability and Low Maintenance: Automatic barriers are designed to withstand constant use and adverse weather conditions. They are constructed with robust materials, such as steel or aluminium, ensuring durability and longevity. Additionally, they require minimal maintenance, resulting in long-term cost savings.
By providing effective access control, enhancing safety, and improving traffic management, automatic barriers offer a range of benefits for various applications, including parking lots, residential complexes, industrial areas, and commercial premises.
