Add Anti-Ram Protection to Your Security Gate
For airports, utilities and facilities upgrading existing vehicle entrances, the Global GRAB Double Beam SecurGate provides a way to reinforce the gate without replacing the entire system. Two horizontal steel beams add vehicle-impact resistance while preserving the host gate’s opening and closing function.
A gate may control everyday access without providing the vehicle protection a facility requires. Double Beam SecurGate addresses that gap with a reinforcement system sized to the opening and coordinated with the existing gate. It is also available for new gate installations.
Retain Gate Function. Strengthen the Access Point.
The system attaches reinforcing beams to the host gate, with fixed supporting posts positioned outside the roadway. This arrangement keeps foundation excavation outside the gate opening and allows the entrance to retain its existing operating method, subject to compatibility review.
- Gate retrofit capability: Reinforce a suitable existing gate rather than replace the complete entrance.
- Multiple gate types: Compatible configurations for sliding, swinging and double gates.
- Wide-opening options: Accommodates clear openings from 12 to 40 feet.
- Roadway preservation: Foundation work takes place outside the gate opening.
- Project-specific design: Select the reinforcement configuration for the gate dimensions and required protection level.

Upgrade the Entrance Around Your Existing Infrastructure
Gate reinforcement can be valuable where the existing entrance already meets day-to-day access needs, but vehicle intrusion remains a concern. Keeping the host gate allows the upgrade to focus on that specific vulnerability.
Each entrance needs an individual assessment. Gate measurements, supporting structures, operating equipment and available foundation space all influence the final arrangement.
Crash-Engineered Performance
The manufacturer identifies Double Beam SecurGate as crash-engineered for the listed performance levels. Engineering calculations are distinct from physical crash-test certification. Confirm that the proposed configuration and supporting documentation satisfy the project’s requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Double Beam SecurGate be added to an existing gate?
Yes. It is designed for reinforcement of suitable existing gates as well as new installations. Compatibility must be assessed for the specific gate and site.
Will the gate still open and close normally?
The system is designed to preserve the host gate’s operating function. The added reinforcement and its interaction with the gate hardware and operator should be reviewed during configuration.
Does installation require excavation?
Yes, foundation excavation is required outside the gate opening. The system avoids excavation within the roadway opening itself.
Is the M50/P1 designation a physical crash-test certification?
The published designation is crash-engineered. It should not be represented as independent physical crash-test certification without documentation establishing that certification.
What is needed to prepare a quote?
Provide the opening width, gate type, photographs, available space beside the opening and required protection level. Existing gate and foundation drawings are helpful when available.
