Transforming Perimeter Security: How A-1 Alcazar Hydraulic Road Blocker Solves Your Security Challenges

31/05/2024

Addressing Critical Security Challenges

  • Pain Point: Increasing Threats from Hostile Vehicles With the rise in hostile vehicle attacks, traditional security measures often fall short in providing the necessary protection. The impact of a high-speed vehicle can be devastating, compromising the safety of personnel and infrastructure.
  • Our Solution: A-1 Alcazar Hydraulic Road Blocker is crash-tested and certified with the ASTM F2656 M50 P1 rating, capable of stopping a 6.8-tonne vehicle traveling at 50 mph within just 1 meter of penetration. This ensures that even the most determined attacks are effectively stopped, providing unparalleled security.

 
  • Pain Point: Need for Rapid Response In critical situations, every second counts. Traditional barriers often take too long to deploy, leaving entry points vulnerable during emergencies.
  • Our Solution: The A-1 Alcazar HRB rises in less than 1.5 seconds, offering immediate protection. This rapid response capability ensures that unauthorized vehicles are halted instantly, minimizing the risk of damage or intrusion.

 
  • Pain Point: Extensive Installation Requirements Many high-security barriers require deep foundations and extensive civil work, leading to increased costs and longer installation times.
  • Our Solution: Our road blocker features a shallow foundation, reducing the need for extensive civil work. This not only saves costs but also facilitates faster and easier installation, ensuring that your security measures are up and running in no time.

 

Innovative Features of the A-1 Alcazar HRB-

  • Three-Finger Design: Unlike conventional barriers, our unique design doesn’t require tracks, springs, or pulleys, ensuring a tamper-proof system.
  • No Axle Load Limitation: The narrow width of each steel beam allows the vehicle’s weight to be distributed evenly to the concrete foundation, eliminating axle load restrictions and ensuring durability.
  • Smooth and Noiseless Operation: The innovative design provides noiseless and smooth operation, reducing maintenance needs and ensuring long-term reliability.
  • Safety Loop Detector: Two safety loops detect vehicles on the impact plate and manage normal entry and exit operations, preventing accidental activations.
  • Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU): Can be positioned up to 25 meters away from the road blocker, the HPU uses secure components from a leading company and includes network control for easy integration. Backup batteries ensure continuous operation during power outages.
  • Easy Maintenance: A drain pipe prevents water clogging, simplifying cleaning and reducing maintenance efforts.
  • Emergency Operation Mode: In emergencies, the road blocker raises in under 1.5 seconds, bypassing safety features for a swift response. An alarm light and siren notify of the emergency, with manual reset required for lowering.
  • Modular Assembly: The modular design of the A-1 Alcazar facilitates easy repairs and replacements, ensuring minimal downtime and disruption.
