Automatic Barrier

TEC Security Group are specialists in the installation, commissioning, maintenance & repair of automatic barriers. We only use quality assured brand names to guarantee excellent performance, robustness and reliable solutions always.

Automatic barriers can act as the first line of defence for a property and are widely used in car parks, business industrial estates, shopping centres, residential estates, construction sites and many more. The aim is to limit access to the site to only those that are authorised to do so or to manage traffic flow into an area. Automatic barriers can exist as standalone automated barriers or can be integrated with access control systems also installed by TEC Security.

FAAC B680H Automatic Barrier System

FAAC B680H Automatic Barrier System

TEC Security install the FAAC B680H, a highly versatile and reliable automatic barrier with a wide range of applications. Powered by an innovative 24V hydraulic hybrid motor rated for continuous use, it supports boom lengths from 2m to 8m and offers adjustable opening speeds, including rapid opening in just 1.5 seconds with a 2m boom. 

Multiple boom configurations are available, such as low skirts to prevent climbing underneath, high/low skirts to prevent climbing over or under, and an articulated boom option ideal for lowceiling installations like car parks and garages. 

Safety is paramount, with an integrated encoder that triggers reversal when an obstacle is detected. For enhanced non-contact protection, the FAAC X-GUARD H barrier laser can be added, increasing pedestrian and vehicle safety around the boom area. 

The onboard control panel includes two loop inputs—Loop 1 for opening commands and Loop 2 for safety and closing functions. The setup can be further customised with cabinet traffic lights or boom lighting. A stainless-steel cover is available for more demanding environments.

Compatible Access Control Integrations

PAL GSM Long Range RFID Reader System: The PAL GSM system is a long-range RFID integrated reader that is an ideal all-in-one device for applications such as intelligent parking management and access control. This system includes a web interface that makes install and system control simple. The RFID operates at a frequency range of 840-960 MHz with a range of RF power of 10 to 27dBm which can be adjusted remotely. There are an unlimited number of authorized users using the RFID tags and users can be grouped for access control by time, days and dates. An internal historical log records at least 10000 tag numbers.

EVOLOOP Wireless Vehicle Detector: EVOLOOP is an innovative wireless alternative to traditional induction loops and photocells, offering a faster and less disruptive installation using smart radar technology. With a wide 140° detection field, it allows up to three configurable virtual loops and can control barrier operation, trigger ticketing systems, support licence plate recognition, and protect vehicles and pedestrians in line with EN 12453 Type D safety standards. The plug-and-go design removes the need for roadworks, with adjustable loop types, target classification, and direction sensing to filter cross-traffic. Suitable for all barrier types and lengths, EVOLOOP delivers reliable performance in all weather conditions using MoWa FMCW radar technology to accurately detect and classify stationary or moving objects.
