FINALLY!!! An affordable Parking Bollard
Remote control operated.  Contact me for details.

Access control - a nice way to say "Stay out of my parking space!"  I live across the street from an elementary school.  Nice Mommies and Daddies and Teachers park in front of my driveway, blocking me in or out, on a regular basis.  I don't mind being blocked out so much.  But when someone blocks me in, I lose it.  I used to write a mean letter and stick it to the driver's window with peanut butter. 
I quit that, cause I worried that they would have impaired vision from the smeared peanut butter. 

Click on the picture and see a film of a driveway that is protected by 4 automatic rising bollards and a sliding gate.  Its a beauty of a system.

But if someone parks outside the gate and blocks the exit?  A guard comes out from behind the house with a laser gun and beams him to outer space.

Formidable Entry
PAS 68 Crash Test

WARNING!!! Do not try to crash through this barrier. 
Click this link to see an amazing crash test.  A 7 ton truck is stopped by an automatic rising bollard.

Truck bombs are the weapon of choice by the modern terrorist.  Elgo Team automatic rising bollards can stop a speeding truck.  They raise in seconds. 

They work in all weather conditions, need no drainage, and can even work underwater. 

Elgo makes the top of the line bollards.  Few companies in the world can make a bollard certified both K-12 and PAS 68. 

When you need quality and reliability, you need Elgo Team.

Bollard Pulverizes Truck

Here is a fun demonstration of what it means to be PAS68 certified.  Those British Trucks aren't fooling around.  Notice at the end, that the Elgo automatic rising bollard continues to ascend and descend after being hit by a 7 ton speeding truck that could have been filled with explosives.  This is the crash test of the year.

PAS Test We passed the PAS We are certified in the UK

Elgo Team K-12 bollards stopped the big truck in the UK.  We are now certified in the US, UK, former USSR and ready to take on the world.  The crash test will be on line soon.  We are very excited about this accomplishment because we've been told that the English trucks are built differently and hard to stop. Our automatic rising bollards are the gold standard of security barriers.  Like the famous batteries, they don't stop working.    Take a look at our video clips:  www.elgoteam.com/en/videos

The Loop Detector and the Arm Barrier

Friday I rode the new light rail.  It was slow as molasses.  We stopped at every red light.  There is a solution.  The crossing automobile traffic should flow continuously.  A loop detector on the track a block before the intersection can turn on the red light and lower an arm barrier when the train goes by.  That way, traffic will only be held up when the train approaches (every 15 minutes). 

Why didn't the engineers think of that?
