Barricades for outdoor facilities capable of stopping truck travelling at 50 mph


photo-barrier-3 Barricades for outdoor facilities capable of stopping truck travelling at 50 mphPolice are searching for sheep thieves after two incidents that took place last week. The animals are estimated to be worth around £2,700 and they all belonged to the same farmer in East Lothian. Police urge anyone who has been offered the sheep for sale to get in touch. Anyone with any information should contact Crimestoppers in confidence and complete anonymity on 0800 555 111.

Today’s barriers and bollards for outdoor facilities are capable of stopping a truck weighing up to 65,000 pounds and travelling at 50 mph. Such barricades from Carpark Barriers & Turnstiles can be raised or lowered at will to stop traffic or let it through. When integrated properly into a total security system, including alarms, gates and other components, vehicle barriers are a key measure in preventing threats to sensitive resources. Normally, an active system keeps the barrier in the active or ‘up’ position, which must be deactivated to permit access. Active systems are more secure than ones that must be activated to prevent access.
