What are automatic barriers?

Automatic barriers are electromechanical devices used to control and monitor vehicle entry and exit in various settings such as car parks, private areas, and industrial premises. They are designed to offer a long working life with excellent security and safety features. FAAC has a wide range of automatic car park barriers suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

How do automatic barriers work?

Automatic barriers work by using an electric motor or hydraulic operator to raise and lower a beam (arm) that restricts vehicle access. They can be activated using various methods such as remote control, access card, keypad, or a token acceptor. The barriers can have different opening times, use frequencies, and beam lengths depending on the specific model and application requirements.

What are car park barriers called?

Car park barriers are commonly referred to as automatic barriers, boom barriers, or gate barriers. They are designed to control and monitor vehicle access in car parks and other areas where traffic control is needed.

What is a manual barrier?

A manual barrier is a non-electric or non-hydraulic barrier system that requires human intervention to operate. Unlike automatic barriers, which use motors or hydraulic operators, manual barriers need to be physically lifted or lowered by a person to control vehicle access. These types of barriers are typically used in low-traffic settings or as a backup solution when automatic barriers are not available or not functioning.
