What Are K4 Crash Rated Barriers?

K4 Crash Rated Barriers are impact-tested vehicle security systems designed to help prevent forced vehicle intrusion at protected access points. They are used as part of a Hostile Vehicle Mitigation strategy for facilities requiring controlled vehicle movement and reinforced perimeter protection. System configuration, crash-test performance and certification depend on the selected K4 barrier model and project specification.
