Definition of Barrier Gates
A barrier gate is an automated blocking device typically installed at the entry and exit points of construction sites, toll booths, hospitals, schools, residential complexes, etc. It operates via an electric motor that raises and lowers the boom arm to control access. Moreover, it can be integrated with remote control systems, allowing for easy and efficient operation.
Common Types of Barrier Gates
Given their widespread usage, choosing the right type of barrier gate is important. Currently, there are three main types:
Straight arm barrier bar
- Straight arm barrier bar: It is a straight and hollow metal bar, when opened and closed it will create a 90 degree right angle. Its structure is quite simple, all installation and operation steps are very quick and easy, so it is preferred by most projects. On the other hand, because when opened and closed it creates a 90 degree angle, the installation position must be high enough for the lever to be raised to the highest level, it will be most suitable for projects on the ground, and the height can be customized according to customer needs in the range of 2 to 10 meters.
Folding boom barrier
- Folding boom barrier: This is a barrier with two straight metal bars connected together, when lowered it forms a straight line, and when raised it folds up very neatly. Compared to the straight type, it has some similarities, but the improvement is that it does not take up much space when raised, and is completely suitable for places with limited ceiling height such as basement parking lots...

Types of Barrier Gates

- Barrier bar type barrier: This type has a more complex structure than the two types above. When lowered, its structure is like a fence that can block the path. Because of its complex structure, but the protection is quite good, it is often only used in places that require a high level of security protection.
- Other Considerations: barrier gates also vary based on material. The lighter the material, the better it minimizes damage in the event of a collision with a vehicle.
