Wedge and Plate Barriers

Wedge and Plate Barriers

Concentric Security’s wedge and plate barriers are used to protect against a variety of vehicle threats. These wedge and plate barriers have been designed and crash tested to meet the DOS K12 (ASTM M50/P1) specifications. This type of barrier has become the flagship of the high security industry. They range in applications from traffic control to final denial. Concentric Security’s wedge and plate barriers are fabricated in a variety of lengths, heights, excavation depths, operational configurations, and performance ratings to meet the project’s needs.
