How to choose an anti-ram installation for an important object?

Some managers face the problem of what technical means of protection to install at an important facility. An automatic barrier (like CAME), or a road barrier (like POKAT3000), or some other foreign analogue (like FAAC). Let's start with the fact that foreign analogues of anti-ram installations are expensive, almost 1.5 — 2.5 times more expensive than ours. They do not work in the rain, or in slush, or in the heat. They need high-quality and constant technical maintenance. Foreign installations must be serviced by professional technicians. Replacing any part takes time and money. Potential Customers must understand that anti-ram devices do not provide complete protection, but are only a part of the overall perimeter protection system and the safety of the facility as a whole. If an enterprise wants to install foreign anti-ram installations in front of the gates, and the fence is ready to fall tomorrow from a gust of wind, then what kind of security from car terrorism can we talk about? Another matter is our domestic anti-ram and barrier installations.

The following advantages should be noted:
• constant control by the developer;
• prompt repair and modernization;
• modification of the design to suit any customer requirements;
• reliability and durability;

• ease of maintenance.

We can add about the automation and equipment of such devices. First of all, these are traffic lights and flashing beacons, which are essential in places with heavy traffic and limited visibility (fog). Of interest are control systems for PDZU, using motion sensors, which allows installing PDZU in places where constant duty of operators (watchmen) is impossible or impractical. Access control and management systems are extremely important at wholesale depots, motor transport enterprises, etc. Accounting of drivers' working hours, magnetic cards, identification pass system — a smart and convenient addition to the PDZU (anti-ram road barrier) package. Video surveillance systems (security television) make it possible to control PDZU over long distances from the checkpoint.
