TERRA GATE HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY CRASH TESTED IN BOTH THE HALF OPEN AND FULLY CLOSED POSITIONS.

THE TERRA GATE STOPPED 7,500kg TRAVELLING AT 80km/Hour & CONTINUED TO OPERATE AFTER IMPACT

The Terra Gate is the first crash-rated half opened sliding gate on the marketplace to surpass the highest industry standards in the World. The results prove that the gate does not need to be in the fully closed position to withstand an impact.

Frontier Pitts have developed the Terra Gate to meet the requirements of our customers at Airports, Embassies, Palaces, Government Institutions and Military Bases around the World. The test was conducted to prove the arresting capability of a Frontier Pitts Terra Gate in the half opened position when impacted with a 7500kg test vehicle at a speed of 80km/hour (50mph). In accordance with PAS 68-69 2007 and the Department of State test standard SD-STD-2.01 Revision A, Certification Class K12, a European lorry was used to act as the test vehicle, loaded with concrete blocks and fitted with test sensors, to meet the demanding specifications for this test laid down by the DOS.

On impact the Terra Gate brought the vehicle to a complete halt with zero penetration onto site or past the impacted face of the unit.

After the impact the Terra Gate remains fully functional and the operating mechanism continued to open and close the gate leaf.

The Terra Gate surpasses the standards for PAS 68-69 2007 and the Department of State Certification, in both fully closed and half opened positions, and continue to operate immediately after the impact, especially without needing repair.
