In order to achieve greater blocking widths or to operate entries and exits separately, two
electro-mechanical boom barriers can easily be used as a dual-barrier system with the two
barriers facing each other. On electro-mechanical barriers with side-mounted barrier booms,
the barrier-boom mounts will then be installed on opposite sides of the barrier housings so as
to ensure that the booms are in alignment (see Figure 2.11).
The one-sided or fork-mounted barrier boom is made from aluminium and tightly sealed at
the open ends so as to prevent any rain water or other dirt from entering the boom. The
barrier boom is coated in white and fitted with red warning stripes.
