Boom Gates

Need a low-maintenance solution for access or traffic control?

Boom gates are a simple and effective way to manage vehicle traffic. A typical boom gate uses a single boom arm or barrier which is levered at one end and lifts when commanded to allow traffic to pass underneath. Multiple gates are often connected in a system for greater traffic flow or intersections.

In most installations, they are used in traffic systems to control the flow of traffic, to restrict entrance to a commercial building or site to authorised personnel only, or at parking facilities.

AN IDEAL SOLUTION FOR:

  • Car Parks And Garages

  • Shopping Centres

  • Venues And Arenas

  • Apartment And Strata Complexes

  • Mine Sites

  • Airports

  • Railway Crossings

  • Tollbooths

There are various methods of access control which command boom gates to open. They may be prompted as vehicle(s) approach using sensor technology (such as ANPR or RFID). Alternatively, they may require drivers to present an ID or keycard, enter a PIN or use a remote. These are customisable options and usually depend on security or expediency requirements.

Due to their simple operation, boom gates are a cost effective and reliable form of traffic and access control. They’re a low-maintenance product which is easy to install and requires little ongoing service. Bollinger has been installing automatic boom gates across Australia for over 40 years.
