The “POPPER” is a piece of equipment, made of a harden piece of metal. Each end has pointed spikes, roughly at a 45 degree angle. A handle is attached for easy placement and removal. They will penetrate the vehicles tire, If forward or backward movement is made, thus making the tire useless.

A barrier member including: a support; a first engagement member coupled to the support; and a translatable column defining a longitudinal axis, wherein the translatable column is rotatably and translatably mounted relative to the support, wherein the translatable column is translatable between: a first position in which the translatable column and the first engagement member are spaced apart from one another such that the translatable column is rotatable about said longitudinal axis; and a second position in which the translatable column and the first engagement member are engaged to prevent rotation of the translatable column about said longitudinal axis.

A bullet resistant security fence resists impacts from objects, such as vehicles, impacting the fence. A configuration of a bullet resistance security fence can be rapidly assembled and deployed as a riot fence that can be disassembled and subsequently repositioned. The riot fence is stabilized by securement devices that pull adjacent ballistic panels toward intermediate support posts and by adjustably positionable stabilizers that can engage the ground surface in front and in rear of the riot fence, even if mounted on steps. Alternative security fence configurations provide more economical manufacturing and installation by having a ballistic panel between thin front and rear shells. The ballistic panel can be formed of aluminum plate or from multiple layers of ballistic fabric. A ballistic panel can be formed from strips of aluminum plate welded together to form seams that are covered by lathe formed from aluminum plate to maintain ballistic integrity.

A structural barrier and energy absorbing device comprises a plurality of structural elements. The structural element alone or in a plurality may serve as a traversal impediment or energy absorbing device, such as a pedestrian barrier, vehicular barrier, anti-tank obstacle, ballistic barrier, or the like. The structural element may be a tetrapod such that it comprises an element body having four extension portions that extend outwardly from the interior center to a distal end, such that the structural element maintains an identical orientation and a low center of gravity in each of four resting positions. The structural element may be a solid-state structural element comprised of a particular material or a portable and collapsible structural element wherein the element body comprises an outer skin defining an interior void space, such that during set-up or installation the interior void space may be filled with a filler substance onsite.

A barrier apparatus includes a barrier post mounted to a base and extending upwardly from the base. A brace of the barrier apparatus is configured to restrict relative movement between the barrier post and the base. The brace can be mounted to the base so that it extends upwardly and obliquely toward the barrier post. The brace can include block. A reinforcing tube can extend around the block. A mated connection to the front of the brace can include a first mating protrusion extending into a first mating hole, and a mated connection to the bottom of the brace can include a second mating protrusion extending into a second mating hole. The brace or another brace can extend into a rear corner positioned between the barrier post and the base.

A system for restricting access to an area includes a security barrier with a security hood. The security hood includes a body having a plurality of openings, a plurality of lights positioned within the plurality of openings, a control module and a communications system. The lights may be recessed into the body. The control module changes the security hood between an inactive state and an active state. The control module controls the plurality of lights. The communications system receives data from a remote command location and provides the data to the control module. The data includes instructions for altering operation of the security hood. The communications system may include a satellite link.

Building blocks are provided to be aligned so as to build a modular barrier to stop objects that are moving on a ground. Each building block comprises connecting bracket having at least two receiving pockets, at least one of which is laterally directed and at least another is directed in a predetermined angle, and plurality of poles configured to be received within the receiving pockets so that some of the poles are substantially parallel to the ground while the others are configured to be received within the receiving pockets that are directed in the predetermined angle so as to allow the modular barrier to stop the moving objects.

A device for stopping an approaching target vehicle by deflating the vehicle’s tires. The device has a scissor-like extendable and retractable construction with upward facing spikes. After deployment, the deflator may be retracted automatically and/or by the push of a button. The deflator can be stored in the enclosure to which it is attached. The deflator is extended by pushing a central hinge of the scissor construction forward, almost completely out of the enclosure. The propulsion means is actuated by a compressed gas capsule, preferably carbon dioxide, and an air cylinder with a linear movable piston connected to the deflator. The gas capsule releases gas under pressure to the air cylinder and moves the piston in a first direction, thereby extending the deflator. By leading compressed gas of the gas capsule to the opposite side of the cylinder, the piston moves in the opposite direction and the deflator is retracted.
