A lot of buzz currently surrounds the word “terrorism”. This is justified by the very root of the word: terror. A terrorist is somebody who attempts to cause social change to fit his or her world view by inspiring fear and threatening other people with violence or other damage. The best defense against such cruelty is self-security. By protecting yourself before terrorism strikes, you take back the power the terrorists want to commandeer. However, going overboard with such protection only impacts your own freedom. You can protect your home by balancing freedom and safety with anti-terrorism cable.
What is it?
Anti-terrorism cable is the kind of defensive measure widely used by government institutions to protect their most treasured and valuable property. Locations such as the Quantico Marine Base, NASA, and the Pentagon employ this barricade to stop drivers who intend to ram motor vehicles into targets of value. These defenses come in a variety of types designed to halt intruders in different ways.
Stalwart Cable
Stalwart Cable stops vehicle intrusions with a fence resembling your standard bar fences. However, this fencing is stronger and more resilient than your standard bars, creating a shield of impenetrability.
Milcon Cable Fence
Milcon acts as a sort of “light Stalwart” material. It is more than 50% less effective than Stalwart, but it is easier to install and is much lighter. This makes it better for less-valuable properties that need less overall protection.
Anti-Ram Cable
A web of impenetrability, Anti-Ram cables are strong and have something other cables don’t: give. By letting a vehicle a little way into the protected area, it keeps the entire area safe without breaking and losing integrity. The border remains safe from attack, and it is a stylish choice.
Anti-Terrorism Cable
Wound cables bend when pushed hard, but don’t give way to pressure. When used in larger fencing, it stops people both in and out of cars from entering.
Vehicular Restraint
This system is the sum effort of many different parts. Uniting fencing, gate systems, and cables, this provides maximum control over an area while allowing the grounds to remain visible.
