Crowdguard provides delivery and installation of the ATG Surface Guard HVM barrier at your location or event. We can tailor the installation around your risk assessment and security requirements, advising you on the best way to maximize HVM protection at your site. The system is lightweight and compact, and we can deliver and install it on your site without the need for special lifting equipment.
Where required, we can install vehicle access points to ensure emergency services can reach the pedestrian area. These access points are reinforced with steel plates to support heavier vehicles and finished in bright yellow to clearly mark their location. The system has been designed to enable authorized personnel to manually lower the protective barrier in less than 30 seconds should an emergency vehicle need to come through.
If access is required for low chassis vehicles or if there is a need to quickly re-open the road to general traffic, we can install vehicle access extension plates, adding to the array of configuration options.
To make the ATG Surface Guard HVM solution an even more integral part of your location or event, we can personalize the HVM barriers with your branding, or that of your sponsors, or add LED lighting, or even footfall counters.
