Types of Security Gates, Barriers, Bollards and Blockers

Our security barrier design and installation services are customised to meet your unique requirements and business schedule. We work with you to minimise downtime and maximise efficiency, ensuring your security systems are operational as quickly as possible. We offer a wide range of security gates and barriers to meet the needs of businesses of all sizes.

  • Gates

    We provide three main types of gates: sliding gates, swing gates, and bi-folding gates. These gates are ideal for sites with existing fences and walls, offering automatic opening for added convenience.

    Types of bollards:

    Sliding gates: On tracks, do not intrude on the roadside; ideal for limited-space sites.
    Swing gates: Maximum height: 3m x 6m, requires 30 seconds to open; best for medium-traffic areas.
    Bi-folding gates: Ideal for large entrances, quick to open, do not require tracks.

  • Barriers

    Barriers are essential for controlling vehicle access, especially in car parks. They can be integrated with access control and intercom systems, as well as CCTV and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) for seamless entry of registered personnel or visitors.

    Types of bollards:

    Straight Beams: Simple, reliable, with minimal moving parts.
    Beam and Security Kits: Enhanced security options.

  • Bollards

    Security bollards offer versatile solutions for controlling car parking and pedestrian access and can integrate seamlessly with access control, security, and fire systems. They can be programmed for timed activation, enhancing control and security. Proper installation requires groundwork to ensure optimal functionality and durability.

    Types of bollards:

    Fixed Bollards: Permanent installations ideal for high-security areas.
    Semi-Fixed Bollards: Can be removed or repositioned as needed.
    Rising Bollards: Retractable bollards that can be lowered or raised as required.

  • Road Blockers and Rising Curbs (Cheese Wedges)

    Road blockers and rising curbs, also known as cheese wedges, are robust security solutions designed to control vehicle flow and enhance the safety of your premises. Available in both surface mount and trench mount variations, offering stronger deterrence than standard car park barriers and meeting the PAS 68 counter-terrorism standard, capable of stopping a fully loaded 7,500kg lorry travelling at speeds up to 50mph.

    Trench-mounted systems require a site survey and extensive groundwork to ensure the mechanisms are securely installed underground. ACCL can provide comprehensive site surveys and groundwork for such systems.

Security Barrier Installation – FAQs

Q: What types of security barrier do you install?

ACCL installs automated and manual security gates (sliding, swing, speed), rising arm barriers, fixed and retractable bollards, and road blockers/rising kerbs. We recommend the appropriate solution based on your site, threat level, traffic volume, and integration requirements.

Q: Can security barriers integrate with CCTV and access control?

Yes. ACCL integrates barriers, gates, and bollards with CCTV, ANPR (automatic number plate recognition), access control fobs and cards, and intercom systems. This allows automated vehicle entry, audit logging, and centralised management from a single platform.

Q: What is ANPR and how does it work with barriers?

ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) uses cameras to read vehicle registration plates. When linked to a barrier or gate, authorised vehicles are identified automatically and the barrier opens without driver interaction. Unauthorised vehicles are held until manually verified.

Q: Do you install hostile vehicle mitigation (HVM) measures?

Yes. ACCL installs PAS 68/IWA 14-1 rated bollards, road blockers, and rising kerbs designed to stop vehicles in hostile vehicle attacks. These are used at critical infrastructure sites, government buildings, stadiums, and public spaces.

Q: How long does security barrier installation take?

Timescales vary by barrier type and site complexity. A simple rising arm barrier can be installed in one to two days, while bollard arrays or road blockers involving groundworks may take one to two weeks. ACCL provides a detailed programme of works after the site survey.

Q: Do you provide maintenance for security barriers?

Yes. ACCL offers planned maintenance for gates, barriers, and bollards including mechanical servicing, safety checks, control system updates, and emergency repair callout to keep your perimeter security operational.

Q: What areas do you cover for security barrier installation?

ACCL provides security barrier installation across London, Kent, Surrey, and the wider South East from our offices in the City of London (EC3V) and Orpington, Kent (BR5).
