The B-Protect is a high-security bi-folding gate designed for controlled vehicle access at locations where the vehicle entrance forms a critical part of the physical security perimeter.
Depending on the selected configuration, the B-Protect can be supplied with resistance classifications according to EN 1627 and with additional ballistic protection. The required configuration should be selected according to the site's threat assessment, required resistance level, passage dimensions and operational requirements.
The bi-folding design combines enhanced physical protection with controlled gate operation, allowing authorized vehicle movements while maintaining the required level of physical security.
Ideal Applications
The B-Protect high-security bi-folding gate is particularly suitable for environments where controlled vehicle access forms part of a high-security perimeter and increased resistance against forced entry may be required.
Typical applications include:
- Government and federal facilities
- Military and defense locations
- Critical infrastructure sites
- Energy and utility facilities
- Data centers and other high-security campuses
- Secure industrial facilities
For locations with higher protection requirements, the B-Protect can be configured with increased forced-entry resistance and optional ballistic protection, while maintaining fast and controlled vehicle access.
Forced-Entry Resistance
B-Protect configurations are available with RC2, RC3 and RC4 resistance classifications according to EN 1627. These classifications define the level of resistance provided against specified forced-entry methods.
The classification applies to the specific tested or certified configuration. Dimensions, construction and other security options should therefore be selected according to the required resistance level and the site-specific security requirements.
Ballistic Protection
Where ballistic resistance is required, the B-Protect can be supplied with ballistic protection up to FB6, depending on the selected configuration.
Forced-entry resistance and ballistic protection address different threats and should not be treated as interchangeable security measures. The required combination should therefore be determined according to the threat assessment and security requirements of the location.
Security Integration
The B-Protect can operate as part of an integrated high-security vehicle entrance. Depending on the site configuration, it can be integrated with:
- Access control systems
- License plate recognition (LPR)
- Security management platforms
- Safety sensors and vehicle detection systems
- Video surveillance systems
- Vehicle inspection systems
This allows vehicle identification, authorization, physical access and monitoring to be coordinated within the overall entrance security process.
