Around the world we are seeing a change in hostile events, where the weapon used to stage an attack are smaller and easier to access such as light and medium vehicles. These are specifically used to inflict harm on innocent people gathering in open and public spaces, highlighting the need for increased protection against all and every vehicle threat. 

 

Traditionally Cova Security Gates have led the way in developing perimeter security solutions designed and tested to stop high mass, high-speed vehicle attacks. Today we are also concerning ourselves with protecting people and places against a range of attack methods using smaller vehicles. Importantly the design philosophy used to deal with higher velocity high mass attacks are not always suitable for a 4x4 or a small car, as such we have spent considerable time and energy ensuring one gate is effective in stopping multiple vehicle types. 

 

Ideal for high streets, town centres, airports, markets and sports stadiums where the solution needs to be permanent or semi-permanent.  

 

As of 15th November 2021 the UK National terrorism threat level has been raised from substantial to SEVERE – meaning an attack is highly likely. 

 

With the proposed The Protect Duty placing greater emphasis on duty holders to 'mitigate' threats to their event, and with recent relaxing of Covid-19 restrictions opening the doors to events such as Christmas markets, sport or concerts, NOW is the time to review your security needs.
