At the entrances of data centres, power plants and other sites covered by the CER Directive, protection against forced entry alone is not enough. The gate must also withstand a deliberate vehicle impact. Pur-ait's crash-rated gate has been tested in accordance with the ISO 22343 standard and is suitable for the perimeter security of critical sites. The gate is available both as a speed bi-folding gate and as a sliding gate, and the gate type is chosen to suit the site. Each site is sized individually according to its space constraints and threat scenario.

Crash-rated gate for CER Directive requirements

The EU CER Directive (Critical Entities Resilience) sets new minimum requirements for the physical protection of critical infrastructure. A gate protected against forced entry alone is no longer enough. Data centres, power plants and water utilities are also expected to be protected against deliberate vehicle impacts. Pur-ait's crash-rated speed bi-folding gate has been tested in accordance with the ISO 22343 standard and can be documented as part of the site's CER compliance report.

ISO 22343 certification in practice

ISO 22343 is an international standard that defines how structures that protect against vehicle impact are tested and classified. In the test, a vehicle is driven into the structure under controlled conditions with a precisely measured mass and speed, after which the structure is assessed on the basis of penetration depth. Certification gives the client, the authorities and the insurer objective proof of performance. Pur-ait's gate meets the ISO 22343 requirements.

Why a speed bi-folding gate at crash-rated sites?

A speed bi-folding gate takes up no space to the side. This is important in confined yards or at sites with narrow access routes. The sideways-moving structure of a sliding gate requires a track that is kept clean and free of ice, but a folding gate does not. The sliding gate is also available crash-rated, and it suits wide gate openings. The gate type is always chosen based on the site's space constraints, traffic flow and security requirements.

Procurement and design of crash-rated gates

The purchase price of crash-rated gates is higher than that of ordinary gates, but when correctly sized the solution is considerably more economical than alternative concrete barrier or bollard infrastructure. Each site is sized individually. The size of the gate, the opening mechanism, the access control system and the foundation structure are designed according to the site's actual space constraints and threat scenario. Request a quote by sending us a site plan and a description of how the gate will be used.

Crash-rated gate as part of perimeter security

A crash-rated gate is part of wider perimeter security, which typically combines a crash-rated fence, gates and an access control system. Pur-ait supplies all of these as one complete solution. BLOKADE PALIFOR or another crash-rated fence combined with an ISO 22343 certified gate forms a unified, documentable protection solution. This simplifies procurement and quality assurance compared with coordinating several suppliers.

Crash-Rated Gates, FAQ

What does ISO 22343 mean for a gate?

ISO 22343 is an international standard for testing vehicle barriers. A gate certified to it has been proven in testing to stop a vehicle of a given mass at a given speed. Certification provides documented proof of performance for the authorities and insurers.

Does the CER Directive require a crash-rated gate?

The CER Directive requires critical entities to carry out a threat assessment and protect themselves against the threats identified. If the threat scenario includes a deliberate vehicle ramming attack, an ISO 22343 certified gate is a practical way to demonstrate compliance. The Directive covers sectors such as energy, water, transport and digital services.

Is a speed bi-folding gate or a sliding gate better for a crash-rated site?

A crash-rated speed bi-folding gate takes up no side space, and its operation does not depend on a track kept clear of snow and ice, as a sliding gate's does. A crash-rated sliding gate is particularly well suited to wide gate openings. Pur-ait assesses which to choose for each site.

How is a crash-rated gate sized?

Sizing is based on the site plan, space constraints, threat scenario and traffic volume. Pur-ait prepares a site-specific plan and ensures that the solution meets the ISO 22343 requirements. The design also takes access control integration into account.

Can a crash-rated gate be combined with a crash-rated fence?

Yes, and it is recommended. Consistent perimeter security requires both the fence and the gates to meet a similar level of performance. Pur-ait supplies both the BLOKADE PALIFOR fence and crash-rated gates as one complete solution.
