Folding Boom Barriers

Cronax Folding Boom Barriers are specially designed for locations with limited vertical clearance such as basements, parking garages, toll booths, and industrial facilities. Unlike standard boom barriers, the arm of a folding boom barrier is segmented, allowing it to fold vertically while operating, making it the perfect choice for low-ceiling or height-restricted spaces. Equipped with robust motors and durable segmented arms, these barriers ensure smooth, fast, and reliable operation even under continuous traffic flow. They can be seamlessly integrated with RFID systems, card readers, biometric access, or remote controls, providing advanced vehicle entry management and security.

With safety features such as auto-reverse on obstruction, reflective strips for visibility, and manual override in case of power failure, Cronax Folding Boom Barriers offer convenience, safety, and durability in one compact solution. Ideal for residential societies, commercial complexes, airports, warehouses, and underground parking, they combine space efficiency with high security, making them a reliable choice for restricted spaces.
