Airport Security Shutters for Boarding Bridges / Airport Check-in Shutters

Security shutters for different purposes:

Boarding bridges on the ramp side combined with check-in shutters at the terminal side.

Front Security has been developing, manufacturing, and installing roller shutters and grilles, retractable gates, and special airport roller shutter solutions, and its products have helped it build a strong reputation as a specialist. The comprehensive product range provides mechanical security solutions for all commercial, industrial, and airport applications.

Safety and Security first.

• Our sequential opening shutters have already been installed in more than 300 airport bridges
• Our lateral curtains are designed for a good sight at the two sides of the bridge
• For the check-in desks we designed a special shutter prevent people from gaining access to the luggage conveyors

Sequential opening shutters for boarding bridges

This shutter consists of two parts connected with firm straps, and opens in two stages. Initially, when the operator opens the upper section of the curtain, the lower section remains in place. During the movement of the bridge towards the plane, this lower section of the curtain functions as a safety barrier. When the bridge is close enough to the plane, the lower section can easily be opened and the passengers can pass through.

The shutter is equipped with safety devices that prevent any entrapment of feet, hands, and fingers when the shutter is opened and closed.

Benefits:

• High security when operating
• Tightness to wind and rain
• Easy to ventilate and operate simultaneously

Technical Specifications: 

• The shutters are mainly constructed from aluminium and polycarbonate. For the hinges we use high quality extruded and anodized aluminium. The transparent windows are made of Durolon ® VR2200, a polycarbonate with special additives which protect against chemical solutions and feature a UV stabilizer.

Lateral Curtains

Full transparent lateral curtain

A common problem with other passenger boarding bridges is the poor view the operator has when the bridge is driven towards or away from the airplane. Not only at the front, but also at the two sides of the bridge.

The full transparent lateral curtain has been designed both as a safety device and an attractive design feature.

It fits perfectly to the two sides of the boarding bridge and hinges with the construction.

We can use the same materials here as for our sequential shutters so the designs of the two products combine perfectly when used in one bridge.

Check-in Conveyor Shutters

You can also put your trust in our knowledge of security solutions for specific purposes.

As security regulations are tightened throughout the world, unauthorized people are always looking for new ways and new opportunities to enter the airfield. This is why we developed in collaboration with the Aeroport de Paris (ADP) shutters to protect the check-in desks; these shutters prevent people from gaining access to the luggage conveyors.

Speed and control is adapted to the needs.
