Crash-Rated Rising Arm Barriers
Hampden Crash-Rated Rising (or Drop) Arm Barriers offer a more discreet, traditional, style of barrier-controlled access – whilst still providing a very high level of physical protection against vehicles being used as a weapon. Rising Arm Barriers are ideal in some circumstances to create an airlock – a two-stage verification system, where a vehicle is allowed access into a holding area protected by a combination of HVM blocking systems.

HVM - Hostile Vehicle Mitigation
These products are designed to provide unparalleled defence against vehicular impact, whether hostile or accidental, and they over certainty in performance.
All of the HVM equipment we specify and install is certified to PAS68, ASTM F2656, or IWA14-1, ensuring the highest level of protection from hostile vehicles that may be used as weapons.
Hampden takes pride in installing internationally recognised HVM equipment and being certified installers of Eagle’s & B&B’s crash rated barrier systems. Some of these products are listed below:
Arrestor™ Rising Arm Barrier
The Eagle Rising Arm Barrier Arrestor (EAG10040) is the latest addition to the Eagle portfolio of crash-tested products. Tested at a clear opening of 7.1m it meets Eagle's secure before impact (SBI) criteria utilising an automatic or manual locking pin on the closing portal.

Key Features
Foundation depth: 400mm (comprising 20mm blinding, 330mm concrete, 50mm surface finish)
‘Secure Before Impact’ (SBI) – the product does not rely upon an impact for beam to catch into a locking system – these have proven unreliable and easily overcome and so CPNI have expressed significant preference toward products which are secured before impact.
Model 773 Drop Arm Barrier
The B&B Model 773 Drop Arm Barrier design provides the lightest operation arm with the greatest energy absorption capability. Upon impact, the aluminium arm gives way to the energy absorption material secured inside. The impact energy is transferred to the foundation though the surface mount stanchions.
