MultiFence
earns Patent
The UK Patent No GB2477465 confirms
Zaun’s rights as the inventor of the
mobile high-security Hostile Vehicle
Mitigation (HVM) fence assembly it
created especially for the London 2012
Olympic Games. The system is made
unique by mounting a PAS 68
enhancement onto Zaun’s MultiFence
system enabling it to resist impact by
7.5 tonne vehicles attacking the fence
line at 90 degrees at 40mph.
By mounting the fencing and the
vehicle mitigation on Multibloc
concrete blocks from Hardstaff, a
considerable amount of space is saved
over using separate HVM roadblocks
and secondary temporary fencing.
London 2012 organisers wanted to
protect temporary Olympic venues as
securely as the main Stratford site, but
they needed the perimeter protection
to be removed as soon as the Games
were over to minimise disruption to the
local community. They wanted to
incorporate vehicle and pedestrian
access along with CCTV and detection
systems. They also wanted to tailor
protection individually to each location
and the security threat and attack
potential identified by security
advisers.
Zaun’s MultiFence assembly is one of
the world’s first to achieve PAS 68:2010
V7500(N2) 64/90:5.0/0.0, the latest of
BSI’s Publicly Available Specifications
for vehicle security barriers and the
benchmark for HVM. It is
manufactured to comply with the
stringent quality standards of BS EN
1317 (vehicle restraint systems)
enabling the system to meet approvals
for use by the Highways Agency.
It uses anti-climb mesh fencing with
posts mounted in concrete blocks
using a unique bolting method which
allows the panels to follow a curve or
go from a flat surface to an incline with
ease.
The system is ideal for applications such
as utility plants, as no below-ground
foundations are required, (even when
the HVM measures are required) and it
can be used on soft and hard standing.
The fencing system can be deployed up
to 5m in height and can be combined
with above ground pedestrian and
vehicle gates, turnstiles and access
portals some of which meet the same
PAS 68 specification.
In addition Zaun offers CCTV columns
mounted to the system, saving space
and costly additional civil works,
toppings and PID systems. The system
overall provides a truly robust,
temporary or permanent solution.
The Intellectual Property Office has granted Zaun a patent
for its MultiFence security fence assembly invention.
