Swivel Skirted Automatic Barriers
An automatic barrier with a full height swivel skirt for added security.
Available with a Hydraulic Motor for longer length booms, or a torque motor.
Skirts installed above and below the boom. As the barrier boom rises, the skirt folds towards the boom. Full height swivel skirts provide the speed and flexibility of a rising arm barrier, and the deterrent of a gate, but at a much lower cost.
- Torque Motor – Maximum boom length: 5500mm
- Hydraulically driven – Maximum boom length: 7500mm
Automatic Barrier Access controls: A wide range of access control systems are available.
Automatic Barrier Safety control systems: Vehicle detector loops, safety photocells and ultra-sonic sensors are available.
The benefits of a torque motor automatic barrier:
- Instantly reversible
- Motor constantly energised: for security locking and provides protection against low temperatures and damp conditions.
The Benefits of a Hydraulically Operated Automatic Barriers are:
- An exceptionally robust heavy-duty boom
- Recommended for sites requiring a greater level of security and/or exposed sites where there is high wind conditions
- Unlimited duty cycles
- Secures large road widths

Customise Your Barrier |
Frontier Pitts takes customising your Automatic Barrier to the next level. As Automatic Barrier on your car park is likely to be the first opportunity that visitors to your premises will see, the traffic control system is a good opportunity for branding and free advertising. |
Fixed End Rest |
Frontier Pitts recommends an end rest for barriers with booms over 4 metres. Fixed end rests are bolted to the ground and require a foundation base of 400mm SQ x 300mm deep. |
Pogo Stick End Rest |
Pogo Stick End Rests are attached to the end of the barrier boom. The end rest will raise and fold against the boom. Ideal bi-parting barrier installations. |
Maglock |
For added security the maglock is installed on the fixed end rests and will reduce possible vandalism |
Boom Lights |
LED lights installed on the barrier boom to highlight the barrier boom |
Special Colour |
Barriers are manufactured as standard in white with a red chevron. Special colours are available to suit a company’s individual corporate theme. |
Stainless Steel Finish |

|
Safety light signals and Car Park ‘FULL’ signs. |
Vehicle Detector Loops |
Vehicle detector loops installed beneath the road surface to detect vehicles. This will prevent the automatic equipment from closing on a vehicle within the aperture. Safety induction loops cut into the road surface. This will prevent the gate from closing on a vehicle within the aperture. |
Safety Photocells |
Safety Photocells produce beams of light which cross the road way to monitor vehicle and pedestrian movement. If an object breaks this beam, the automatic equipment will stop & reverse. On gate installations, two pairs of photocells are usually fitted. Ultra Sonic Sensors are also available. |
Wig Wag Lights |
‘Wig Wag’ Traffic Light systems are highly recommended to be installed with automatic barriers at rail way level crossings. The lights will flash to annouce a warning. |
