Anti-Ram Crash Gates
SLIDE AND SWING · TWELVE TO THIRTY FEET
Crash-rated gates built around the connection, not the panel. Slide gates crash tested to ASTM F2656-23 at M50 P1 and M30 P1; swing gates built to a licensed crash-tested design. A three-inch steel pin secures both ends.

THE OPENING
THE GATE IS THE ACCESS IN YOUR FENCE.
A BSP crash gate is designed at the connection. A three-inch 4140 steel pin passes through stacked plates at each end. The panel is what the driver sees; the pin is what stops the vehicle.
All four gates are offered from 12 ft to 30 ft clear openings, with chain link, ornamental picket, palisade or welded mesh infill. The M50 P1 and M30 P1 slide gates were crash tested on BSP articles to ASTM F2656-23; swing gates are manufactured under license to a crash-tested design.
DIFFERENTIATOR
Both ends pin. The gate is secured at the latch post and at the hinge post.
A 3.00 in 4140 steel pin at each end carries impact load into engineered foundations rather than into the operator.
