When you’ve just wrapped up a long day managing your site, the last thing you want is to worry about whether your access solutions are strong enough to prevent a break-in from a determined intruder. 

It’s a concern many site managers and business owners face, especially when protecting high-value assets, sensitive areas or busy operations. While your access management gates look secure, could someone find a weakness in them?

The repercussions of unauthorised access, from property damage to stolen goods, could mean a significant disruption to your whole operation. 

You need a reliable, purpose-built solution. 

That’s why Parking Facilities are thrilled to announce the launch of our range of TYTAN security-rated gates.

Designed to meet the highest security standards and withstand the toughest conditions, these gates offer advanced protection to ensure your premises are secure. 

In this blog, we’ll explore why our new security-rated gates are ideal for safeguarding your property. Whether you need peace of mind for a warehouse, industrial site or high-risk facility, TYTAN gates provide the security you need. 

The importance of security-rated gates 

Strong access management systems are essential for high-stakes industries to prevent unauthorised access and protect your premises. 

Security-rated (SR) gates are tested and certified to meet the rigorous Loss Prevention Standard 1175 (LPS 1175), specifically focusing on their ability to withstand physical force and deliberate break-in attempts. 

They actively delay intruders, buying valuable time for security systems or personnel to respond. 

LPS 1175 assesses products based on their resistance to attack using different tool kits and durations, dividing them into distinct Security Rating (SR) levels. The ratings include: 

• Security-rating 1 resists attacks using basic tools (category A) for 1 minute over a duration of 10 minutes.
• Security-rating 2 withstands more advanced tools (category B) for up to 3 minutes over a duration of 15 minutes.
• Security-rating 3 endures even more severe tools (category C) for up to 5 minutes over a duration of 20 minutes. 

Each increase in SR level reflects a higher capability to delay more determined and resourceful attackers.

Meet the TYTAN security-rated gate range 

The new TYTAN security-rated gates are engineered to deliver unparalleled protection. Each gate is manufactured to meet strict industry standards, offering advanced features tailored to various security needs. 

Here are the three levels of protection within the TYTAN range: 

Security-rated 1 gates – reliable security for everyday protection

The SR1 gates are perfect for properties with moderate security needs, its key features include: 

• Infills: Choose from Square Hollow Section (SHS), D-section palisade, or 358 mesh (4mm basic).
• Maximum sizes: Up to 12m wide (2.4m high) or 8m wide (3m high).
• Operational speed: 4 seconds per meter for swift access management.

The SR1 gates provide protection and accessibility, making them ideal for facilities like warehouses and general commercial properties.

Security-rating 2 gates – strengthened security for more demanding needs 

When the stakes are higher, the SR2 gates offer enhanced protection without compromising functionality. Here are its key features:

• Infills: Options include Circular Hollow Section (CHS), W-section palisade, or 358 Super 10 mesh.
• Maximum sizes: Similar to SR1, with a choice of 12m (2.4m high) or 8m (3m high).
• Operational speed: Maintains 4 seconds per meter for efficient operation.

SR2 gates are ideal for industrial sites, logistics hubs, and other properties that require an added layer of security.

Security-rating 3 gates – Maximum protection for high-risk environments

For properties where security is non-negotiable, the SR3 gates are the ultimate solution. 

• Infill: A combination of 358 mesh with Armor Weave for unmatched resilience.
• Maximum sizes: 8m wide (3m high) to maintain structural integrity.
• Operational speed: 6 seconds per meter for a robust security solution.

SR3 gates are designed for high-risk locations such as infrastructure sites or sensitive facilities.
