Anti - Terrorist Gate

The safety of public gatherings is always a top priority. With the FANCY FENCE system of retractable gates, selected areas can be cordoned off quickly and safely - without time-consuming preparations. Particularly robust heavy-duty steel posts offer the best protection against battering rams and make it possible to securely cordon off areas without permanently damaging the surrounding architecture.

Our innovative security fences have successfully passed crash tests in the renowned CTS laboratory in Germany. This makes us the only company in the world to offer barrier fences with protection against terrorist attacks - ideal for public places, embassies, schools or military facilities.

We are also ASTM and IWA certified, which further confirms the highest security standards.

The FANCY FENCE fencing system is designed so that the individual fence segments are housed in a reinforced concrete shaft in the ground.

The decisive advantage over conventional fences is that we can realise fence systems of any length that can be sunk into the ground. All components of our in-ground fencing system are integrated into the underground reinforced concrete shaft and connected to each other via cables, pulleys and counterweights. Thanks to this sophisticated system, the gates can be operated with a conventional gate operator, ensuring smooth operation and easy maintenance.

Key advantages:

  • available in any length and shape of the retractable fence
  • heavy-duty steel and concrete pickets that prevent a fence ram
  • ease of ensuring entry and exit and/or evacuation passage
  • effortless manual operation in case of power outage
  • anti-panic system

Design
Safe zones fenced off by our enhanced strength fences ensure a high level of safety.

Better safe than sorry: If our retractable fencing systems are to close off vulnerable zones in public spaces, they must fulfil special requirements. That's why we use heavy-duty steel posts and reinforce them with concrete when manufacturing our security fences. A combination of materials that we trust. And which enables us to manufacture stable fences that can even withstand terrorist attacks with vehicles.

FAQ

Our retractable fence and gate system is based on gate elements that can be fully retracted into the ground. All elements and the operator are housed in a reinforced concrete shaft in the ground and connected to each other via cables, pulleys and counterweights. A system that is as innovative as it is simple, promising problem-free operation and easy maintenance.
Our fences consist of individually operable sections that are available in any length and shape. The retractable gates are straight sections as standard, but can also be manufactured in any curved shape.
Our system was tested in special chambers at temperatures from -30 °C to +50 °C. The result: neither frost nor heat can harm the doors. The individual components of FANCY FENCE are designed for use in adverse conditions, and the operator is located in a reinforced concrete shaft underground, where temperatures are relatively stable. As the door is closed 99 % of the time, neither ice nor dust can penetrate the reinforced concrete shaft - if necessary, additional seals can be fitted to further enhance this effect.
Our doors are made for outdoors - so rain is no problem at all. The reinforced concrete shaft set into the ground is watertight - only through the openings for the goal posts can some water penetrate. Should this happen, a water pump is automatically activated.
The retractable fences have a control opening on the centre cover. This allows the gate to be opened and closed manually using a crank in the event of a power failure. Thanks to an ingenious system of counterweights, no force is required, so that even children can operate the gate without any problems. It is also possible to equip the gates with a battery with a capacity of around five to ten cycles.
The maintenance work for a retractable gate from FANCY FENCE is the same as for conventional entrance gates. As with other gates, the operator is the most susceptible to faults, but a defect can be rectified particularly easily by removing the centre cover. In the event of other faults, the other covers can also be removed.
Our fences and gates that can be lowered into the ground are equipped with light barriers and overload sensors. If these register any movement, the opening mechanism stops immediately. The gates are also completely safe in the event of a power failure: unlike conventional gates, FANCY FENCE has no components that could trap people or animals when the gate is lowered.
We won't leave you on your own: our service team will check and maintain your retractable fencing system every year and will also be available to you beyond the statutory warranty period.
Our offer includes the supply and installation of retractable gates, garden gates and fences. The waterproof reinforced concrete shaft can be manufactured by a skilled craftsman according to our specifications - but we can also supply it as a prefabricated part. The price for the entire retractable fencing system cannot be given as a lump sum, as we can only calculate the costs once we have analysed your very specific customer requirements.
