If you operate a large entertainment venue, such as a theater or a sports stadium, or you hold a large event on a regular basis, you need crowd control barriers to avoid trouble. There are barriers that go both inside and outside. We at Delta Scientific primarily offer vehicle access control barriers for use outside your venue.
Types of Bollards and Their Uses
Most people have probably seen bollards before but not known what they were called. Some people refer to them by a more generic term, such as “traffic barriers.” A bollard is a vertical post that is short and sturdy used for security to prevent vehicles from crashing into buildings or pedestrian areas. Learn about the different bollard types, their history, and their uses today to see how these security devices continue to protect buildings and pedestrians around the world.

5 Types of Barriers That Can Improve College Campus Security
Colleges and universities take campus security very seriously. As a result, the last two decades have seen a general decline in crime rates on campuses of higher education. Nevertheless, there are challenges involved in enforcing security on college campuses. For example, a single campus may encompass an area equivalent to several city blocks. During key hours, this area is densely populated with students and staff members. Additionally, the larger colleges may have roadways through campus. Sometimes the roadways are private, limited only to students and university staff. Other roadways may be open to the public.

However, deliberate sabotage to infrastructure, particularly critical infrastructure, could have devastating effects. Fortunately, we at Delta Scientific offer products to enhance critical infrastructure security.
