It secures an entrance roadway 8 to15 feet in width from vehicle attack. Hydraulic and manual versions are available. It is filled with cement once it is in place. This special event barricade is movable and reusable.

“We have a great need for easy to install, temporary, drop-arm beam barriers to block entrances to embassies or roads to embassies where we don’t have setbacks,” emphasized Dusty Rhodes who is part of the certification team from the U. S. State Department. He continued, “With this type of barrier, we don’t need to dig up streets.”

According to Jerry Edwards, U.S. Army R & D Deputy Product Manager, Physical Security Equipment “This type of barrier provides a new element in force protection both in the U.S. and overseas. It’s especially relevant for threat conditions in the military, such as in Kosovo, where there are a series of force protection issues. Having an increased level of security, when moving from locale to locale, is a big advantage.”

Contact Delta for versions that can be filled with sand or gravel. Roadside modules have fork lift openings for rapid deployment.
