Vandgard Wins Contract to Supply Anti-Climb Barrier To Canadian Embassy in Haiti
The Canadian Embassy have chosen Vandgard's Rotating Anti-Climb Guard to defend their new premises in the centre of the city. Virtually impossible to climb over, Vandgard's unique rotating design is effective without intent to harm.
(PRWEB) February 25, 2005 -- Vandgard has won a contract to supply its rotating anti-climb security barrier, with Defensor alarm system by Geoquip, to the Canadian Embassy in Port au Prince, Haiti. It is to be installed along the entire perimeter wall of the Canadian Embassy’s new premises in the centre of the city to defend the grounds against intruders.
Virtually impossible to climb over, Vandgard's unique design is effective without intent to harm. A series of curved vanes, each revolving freely around a central shaft, create an unstable barrier which moves if anyone attempts to climb over it. Unlike Razor Wire, it is not a trap. It has no impaling spike and the vanes are curved away from vertical to protect against falling accidents.
In this application, the central shaft of the Vandgard barrier being used at the Canadian Embassy is also fitted with the Defensor alarm system, supplied by Geoquip Limited. This activates an alarm in the Embassy’s security control room should anyone attempt to move or tamper with the barrier.
The system's unique safety angle is one of its most powerful benefits. It is used with equal confidence in schools and children's play areas as it is at government buildings and other high security establishments, and in commercial and industrial premises throughout the UK and Europe.
