Permanent highway gates & barrier solutions

Asset VRS’s Sologuard is a safety barrier for carriageway crossover points and can be fitted into existing safety barriers using transition units, allowing opening and closing by two operators in just a few minutes. Sologuard is instantly moveable, allowing the flow of traffic to be altered quickly and safely by simply removing the securing pins and winding down the sets of hidden wheels. Many emergency crossing points on motorways and trunk roads have Sologuard installed. Maintenance crossing points at tunnels and bridges around the UK are also protected with this system.

SteelStep System is a rapid opening and closing bi-directional gate and barrier. The system, with its extremely low deflection and high containment capability, is the ideal system for emergency access points between central reservation concrete step barrier systems. The system enables easy opening in different configurations. By removing locking pins at either end of the barrier, the SteelStep System can either pivot from each end or be relocated laterally, thus exposing the full opening. Maintenance training in use of the system is provided by Asset’s in-house training facility. SteelStep System can also be used on bridge decks, where conventional slip form concrete cannot be used due to its weight. Anchored every 5.4 m, the system’s performance is equivalent to concrete and is cost-effective. Asset can undertake installation of this product, or alternatively can train our customers in safe installation under National Highway Sector Schemes 10B.
