The firm based in Hornsea, East Yorkshire design and manufacture a range of products and solutions to protect high profile buildings and pedestrianised areas from the threat of vehicle attacks. Heald’s HT3-Matador 4 which has already been previously crash tested to IWA standards has achieved a new record with an IWA crash test against a 7.2 tonne N2A specification truck travelling at 80 kph (50 mph). The IWA crash test is the world standard in crash testing and has been prepared by the Centre for Protection of National Infrastructure (CPNI) and British Standards Institution (BSI) with input from the US Department of State and combines aspects of PAS68 and ASTM (American standard) crash testing requirements. Whereas the latest configuration, the HT2-Matador 6, which consists of four central moving bollards and two fixed bollards to accommodate access for large vehicles or tight turning circles has also succeeded in its PAS68 crash test, halting a 7.5 tonne truck travelling at 64 kph (40 mph). As Heald continue to innovate the patent-protected Matador range, which has recently seen the launch of an electro-mechanically operated range removing the need for oil to operate and up to a 60% reduction in electrical running costs, they have continued to invest in crash testing to provide the market with a trusted solution to mitigate the risk of vehicle attacks. To date, Heald’s Matador Range has been crash tested four times, with each test covering a variety of standards. After each test, the Matador continued to function, mitigating the risk of secondary attacks. Due to its sliding bollard feature, the Matador range can be shallow, or surface mounted making the product ideal for install in locations where excavation can be challenging due to existing infrastructure such as underground cabling and drainage. The surface mount option is ideal for short term events such as festivals and Christmas markets due to its rapid installation, while still providing the same levels of protection as its shallow mount counterpart.
