Drop Arm Barriers (DAB)

The Spike Systems Drop Arm Barrier (DAB) System is an advanced, motorized barrier gate designed for traffic control and security applications. It provides an automated solution for restricting vehicle access at control points such as security checkpoints, rental car facilities, and revenue-controlled areas. The system features a hydraulic-powered drop arm that can be configured for right or left-side installation, offering flexibility to match specific site requirements. The DAB system is available in multiple models with clear widths ranging from 10 to 20 feet, and it operates efficiently with a 1.5 HP motor, enabling rapid arm movements. It supports various access control options, including remote operation, key switches, card readers, and vehicle detection loops.

Designed for durability and ease of installation, the DAB system comes pre-configured from the factory with necessary wiring and components to streamline setup. Safety is a priority, with built-in precautions for voltage protection, hydraulic system monitoring, and emergency manual lowering in case of power failure. The system requires periodic maintenance, including hydraulic fluid checks and seal inspections, ensuring long-term reliability. With its robust construction, customizable control logic, and compatibility with multiple access control methods, the Spike Systems Drop Arm Barrier is an ideal solution for facilities requiring secure and efficient traffic regulation.
