Portable plate barricade

December 2001 Access Control & Identity Management

Able to be deployed in high traffic locations for full manual or automatic operation within two hours, Delta Scientific's quick deployment modular series DSC 900 barrier can be rapidly set up on existing concrete or asphalt roads, level compacted soils and other hard surfaces. No excavation or sub-surface preparation is required.

The plate barrier lies level to the ground to allow vehicles to pass and is raised or lowered into position either hydraulically or manually. The weight of the plate barrier is balanced by a patented Delta Scientific hydraulic/pneumatic system.

"As a result of the 11 September strikes against the Pentagon and World Trade Center, both the government and private organisations have asked us to create a personnel protection barrier that can be installed quickly and easily for heavily travelled entrances," explains David Dickinson, Delta Scientific Senior Vice President. "Using our successful DSC 500 portable drop-arm beam barrier, employed successfully by NATO in Kosovo and elsewhere, as the basis of the new design, our DSC 900 portable plate barrier provides security against vehicle-based terrorism or thefts for high-cycle locations such as the entrances to large office facilities, government agencies and military bases."
