Heald Matagate is a surface-mount perimeter security gate system designed to deliver crash-tested vehicle mitigation in locations where excavation is limited or not possible. Made from steel with a hot dip galvanised base, Matagate is dual crash-tested to IWA 14-1 standards and continues to operate after impact. Customisable in size, colour and branding, it integrates with architectural paving and supports both surface- and ultra-shallow-mount installations.
