Interceptor

INTERCEPTOR can be installed with foundations required for the fixing bolts of 19.75", meaning installation can be performed with the minimum of disruption to the surrounding areas and underground services.

Interceptor Gate

Hand built and manufactured under one roof, the INTERCEPTOR is constructed from the highest quality materials. Workmanship is quality assured and fully tested by TRL (Transport Research laboratory) to PAS 68:2007 with a 7.5 ton truck travelling at 50mph (80km/h).

Crash rated at the TRL test site, the INTERCEPTOR was put through its paces. The purpose of the test was to determine the stopping or restraining potential when impacted at 90 degrees by a 7.5 ton, twin axle vehicle travelling at 80km/h (50mph).

“On impact the vehicle was immobilised by the system with no major parts of the vehicle penetrating past. The gate deformed, as designed, under the impact but remained intact such that no further vehicles could pass.”

For the complete security solution, additional gate leaves can be ordered and held in stock for immediate replacement, should the INTERCEPTOR be called into action.
