The
boom barriers are specially designed to secure your premises interrupting
unknown commuters before they enter. The automatic boom barriers are those
which are operated by means of a secure validation entry from their database
and the manual boom barriers are operated by a security personnel associated to
it.
Many
companies will guarantee a perfect installation of these boom barriers in the
pre talks and eventually their service will not showcase it , the reason is
they will always be a time rats, and tries
to fit the systems as fast as they can slipping out minor errors which will
cause potential problems in the future.
· The boom barrier mechanism is the one which
lifts the barrier from the complete zero angle or linear position to the
perfect vertical position in a prescribed time or preset time.
·
Once the installation is done, you have to check
whether the barrier arm is sliding up and down till it reaches clear vertical
position and clear horizontal position.
·
When the controls are reset, the arms of the
barrier have to move to its initial position smoothly under the force of
gravity, minimizing power consumption.
·
Descending time under no power supply shouldn’t
cross 15 seconds; if it is below 10 seconds then it is a fair deal.
·
Reverberation should not occur while ascending
or descending of the barrier.
·
The housing of the boom barrier should ensure a
weather proof case made of a good metal that is not affected with atmospheric
variations.
· The counter weight balance must be variable when
in need of particular conditions and the materials should be of MS
International standards.
· The barrier shaft should be of the steel
material and often supported with two bearings to which the gate arm support
will be tightened.
At
the last check for the products certification from the manufacturer and collect
the serial number of the product which will be unique and the name and
signature of the industry’s representative.
