Ports
A reinforced port boom gate that controls vehicle access in port and marine terminal environments with elevated security requirements and exposure to heavy vehicles, salt corrosion and hostile conditions.
Data Centres
A high-security data centre boom gate that protects sensitive infrastructure by restricting unauthorised vehicle access, supporting secure monitored entry points and integrating with site CCTV and boom gate access control systems.
Airside Airport Access
An airport security boom gate that manages controlled vehicle entry to airside zones, supporting aviation security requirements and regulated access procedures aligned to civil aviation standards.
Prisons and Law Courts
Delivers reinforced vehicle control for correctional facilities, courts and judicial sites, a critical-infrastructure boom gate where security, control and reliability are paramount.
Forta Boom Gate
Benefits
High-Security Vehicle Control
Engineered as a high security boom gate that prevents unauthorised vehicle access in sensitive environments, providing both a strong physical and psychological security barrier.
HVM-Certified Protection Options
Available with HVM-certified, crash-rated configurations (including PAS 68 and IWA 14 alignment), delivering enhanced anti-ram resistance against hostile or forceful vehicle threats.
Compact Footprint for Secure Sites
Provides high-security boom gate vehicle control while requiring significantly less space than traditional sliding security gates or ground-based barrier solutions, making the Forta ideal for constrained or controlled sites.
Resilience Against Vandalism and Abuse
Reinforced, vandal-resistant boom gate construction and robust materials withstand deliberate damage, impact and harsh operating conditions.
Rapid, Controlled Access Operation
Delivers controlled opening and closing for authorised vehicles — without the long travel distances or delays associated with larger sliding security gates or rising bollards.
Integration with High-Security Systems
Easily integrates with advanced boom gate access control, CCTV, alarm and SCADA monitoring platforms to support layered security strategies.
Forta Boom Gate
Features
Reinforced Boom Arm Construction
Heavy-duty, reinforced boom arms are anti-tamper engineered to withstand impact, ramming and hostile conditions in high-security environments.
HVM-Certified Configurations Available
The Forta range includes options capable of achieving Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) certification under PAS 68, IWA 14 and ASTM F2656 standards — providing enhanced anti-ram protection against vehicle-borne threats.
Integrated Anti-Pedestrian Fencing
Anti-pedestrian fencing options eliminate the need for ground-based sliding security gates and tracks, delivering a secure perimeter boom gate solution with a smaller footprint.
Advanced Control Logic & Reporting
Supports intelligent boom gate control and monitoring, including boom position status, fault detection, alarms and operational reporting, for secure, centrally managed site operations.
Seamless System Integration
Designed to integrate with wider security ecosystems, including access control platforms, CCTV, alarm and SCADA monitoring systems, and site management infrastructure.
Cataphoretically Treated Steel Housing
Robust steel boom gate cabinet with cataphoretic treatment delivers exceptional strength, corrosion resistance and durability in harsh, coastal or high-risk Australian environments.

How It Works
The Forta Boom Gate controls vehicle access using a reinforced automatic boom gate designed to operate as part of a layered security system. When an authorised access request is received, the control system validates it through connected security platforms before activating the boom gate. The reinforced anti-ram boom arm raises or lowers in a controlled manner, prioritising security, stability and safety over raw speed.
For site-specific security requirements, boom arm profiles can be interchanged, allowing the Forta to be configured with reinforced, high-impact or specialist arm designs. Anti-pedestrian fencing can also be integrated or modified, creating a continuous secure perimeter boom gate without the need for sliding security gates or ground tracks, while maintaining a compact footprint.
The Forta Boom Gate is designed to integrate seamlessly with high-security systems, including:
- Boom gate access control and credential management platforms (RFID, proximity, card readers)
- Licence plate recognition (LPR / ANPR) and vehicle identification systems
- Security management and SCADA monitoring systems
- Control rooms and remote boom gate operator stations
- Alarm, CCTV and perimeter security systems
Advanced control logic continuously monitors boom position, system status and fault conditions, supporting real-time reporting, alerts and remote boom gate control. This integrated approach ensures the Forta functions as a critical component within secure sites such as military facilities, ports, data centres, airports and judicial environments across Australia.
The Forta is part of Parcsafe’s wider range of boom gates and vehicle access control systems. For everyday commercial access, see our everyday automatic boom gate (Enta); for high-throughput sites, our high cycle boom gate (Aero); and for wide entries up to 14m, our long span boom gate (Magna).
