Horizontal Beam Barrier
The HORIZONTAL BEAM BARRIER (HBB) features a structural steel beam that lowers to surface level to permit traffic flow and rises to a beam height of 36” to stop traffic. This beam is anchored in place between two end wells, able to secure multiple lanes of traffic or wide checkpoints. The HBB offers a unique solution for properties where the widths of the entrance are wider than most conventional gates can cover, up to 34 feet.
The HBB’s compact footprint is perfectly suited for close-quarters installation sites where a high level of security is required. The HBB requires minimum excavation across the roadway itself, and primary excavation is outside the roadway opening, easily avoiding underground utilities and other obstructions.
Boasting a 3 second operating speed, the HBB allows for fast processing of vehicles. The HBB features a warning horn, flashing light, edge sensor, and photoelectric sensor in accordance with UL 325 standards. It is preconfigured for easy integration of additional access control and safety devices as well as integration of barrier command and control from multiple control locations.
