Anti-Vehicle Barrier Systems
Meridian Rapid Deployment Anti-Vehicle, Anti-Ram Ballistic Barriers.Meridian Rapid Defense Group designs and manufactures a wide range of rapid anti-vehicle barriers. From the Archer 500 "drop-and-go" barrier to the U.S. Dept. of State K4 rated Archer 1000 Barrier System, it is now possible for facilities, tactical and military units to secure perimeters and manage risk in minutes, rather than days. Meridian's Archer 500, 750 and 1200 Barriers are rapidly deployable in minutes with a team of two, without the need of heavy equipment. Meridian's products do not require hydraulics or electricity to operate, maintenance costs are minimal and all of our products have ballistic capabilities.
