Installation of Frontier Pitts IWA 14 HVM Terra 180 Swing Barrier with matching HVM Static Bollards providing impact tested Anti-Ram protection to Spitalfields Market.
Bishops Square, Spitalfields, adjacent to the Old Spitalfields Market is located in the historic heart of East London, on a site that has had a market for over 350 years. Spitalfields offers an opportunity to experience this wonderfully authentic London area that is home to contemporary brands and innovative Street Food independents, all set against the backdrop of a world-famous City skyline.
With the City of London, Bishopsgate and Liverpool Street Station close by, Frontier Pitts were tasked to upgrade the perimeter security of the area with Hostile Vehicle Mitigation following an annual review of the Crowded Place estate by the local CTSA, the Estates Manager met with our High Security Technical Consultant during site assessments.

Challenge
To protect the busy Crowded Place area with Hostile Vehicle Mitigation, whilst allowing pedestrians to walk freely and not interrupt the operation of the many businesses in the area. Any installation needed to blend in to the surrounding areas and encompass the Victorian characteristics that drive so many visitors to the popular tourist destination. The Underground Service Road also required HVM Entry and Exit Barriers which would be used by a range of vehicles including cycles.
Result
Frontier Pitts complete solution will be the envy of Estate Managers and Councils across the UK faced with the same challenge to protect their facility against vehicle attack.
HVM Terra Swing Barriers
IWA 14 Terra 180 Swing Barrier
For the businesses and market traders some access for deliveries would be required through these bollards. Our Terra 180 Swing Barrier was the perfect solution. Matching the Terra Venus Bollards impact test rating under the new International IWA 14 specification, the Terra 180 Swing Barrier was manufactured and finished to match the heritage style.
The sleek, manually operated Barrier is the ideal solution for access points which need to be secured with occasional access, out of hours security, or remote locations with power supply restrictions.

The Terra 180 Swing Barrier has since been tested to the higher rating of 50mph, therefore producing the same solution with our Terra Jupiter Bollards.

HVM Rising Arm Barriers
PAS 68 Compact Terra Barriers
Our PAS 68 Compact Terra Barriers were installed as entry and exit barriers to the Underground Service Road. Successfully impact tested to the British PAS 68 specification, the Compact Terra Barrier are designed to look like standard car park barriers but can stop a vehicle travelling at 30mph.
After a detailed Risk Assessment to determine the type of users that will be accessing the Service Road Barriers, safety lasers were added to the system to allow use by cyclists.
