Begin installation in the
morning…have protection by
lunch.
First used successfully to protect
NATO troops in Kosovo and elsewhere,
Delta’s quick deployment, modular
portable solutions can be rapidly set
up on existing concrete or asphalt
roads, level compacted soils and other
hard surfaces. No excavation
or sub-surface preparation is required.
Delta’s portable barriers are
used around the world. The Social
Security Administration used them as
temporary barriers to its headquarters
while permanent Delta stainless steel
bollards were being installed. The
Department of State uses them to protect
embassies in locations where permanent
barricades are not feasible.
So easy to implement
Since the unfilled buttresses, or
pods, weigh less than 700 pounds (318
kg), they and the other modular sections
are easily moved with a small forklift,
pallet jack or handcart. Forklift
slots facilitate moving and positioning
of the pods. Assembled and
interlocked with quick lock-unlock
pins in only two hours, the buttresses
are then filled with concrete.
These hydraulic units operate manually
or with locally-supplied power or batteries. The
can be controlled automatically or
via remote control using hardwired
or RF links, card readers, key switches,
local guard pushbutton stations or
any combination. They can be
sized to provide pass-through rates
suitable for most inspection and identification
station requirements.
Towable Units
Towable barricades answer the need of our clients that require a temporary barricade system to address a specific threat or secure the facility during special events.
Built at the request of U.S. Federal government force protection specialists for initial fast deployment use in Iraq and elsewhere, the totally self-contained MP5000 is towed into position and controls vehicle access within 15 minutes. Once positioned, the mobile barricade unpacks itself by using hydraulics to raise and lower itself off its wheels. The MP5000 is a K4 rated barricade.
The first commercial version of the MP5000, the DSC 1000, uses the company's "Soft Stop" technology. Light enough to be towed by a golf cart and set up in only 10 minutes, the new DSC 1000 portable barrier has already passed an ASTM crash test in which it stopped a 5,000-pound (2300 kg) vehicle going 40 mph (64kph), providing it with an ASTM rating of P50. With no foundation or electrical hook-up needed, two people can set up and take down the new DSC 1000 barrier in ten minutes.
