Highway Care Security Solutions (HCSS)
have recently erected their flagship product
SecureGuard 30 Hostile Vehicle Mitigation
(HVM), with High Security fence supplied
by Littlewood Fencing as part of a
perimeter security upgrade at one of the
UK’s largest Airports.
The SecureGuard is a rapidly installed,
compact and cost effective HVM high security
system that offers a unique end to end PAS 68
rated barrier, protecting against vehicle borne
attack. SecureGuard 30 Barriers are the product
of choice for many temporary and permanent
requirements and have been used extensively
throughout the UK for perimeter protection at
many high security locations and events.
SecureGuard is also tested for use on
Highways, tested to En1317 and NCHRP 350,
this allows the SecureGuard HVM system
to be installed adjacent to live highways
where there is risk of impact from innocent
vehicles and where the barrier system can
assist in redirecting an errant vehicle safely.
The client can be secure knowing that they
have the correct level of HVM protection
required, whilst ensuring that they are not
increasing the risk to the general public by
the HVM measures installed.
The SecureGuard system requires no regular
maintenance and no system tensioning, can be
installed into shallow foundations and offers a
suite of PAS 68 tested components to provide
a physical barrier, offering complete perimeter
protection. Combined with high security
fencing, HCSS’s SecureGuard is an effective
protection from vehicles and intruders and was
an obvious choice for the major UK airport.
