Barrier system
View Patent ↗A barrier system is configured to stop vehicular traffic. The barrier system has a beam gate arranged between a first barrier and a second barrier. The beam gate further comprises a hollow beam having bean first end and a beam second end. A beam cable is arranged through the beam along a beam central axis. A latch assembly has a cradle assembly that is joined to the first barrier and configured to house the beam in the cradle assembly. A pivot arm is joined to the beam and the second barrier, and further has a pivot arm joined to an axle and a counterweight housing. The counterweights arranged on the counterweight housing facilitate raising and lowering the beam in order to stop vehicular traffic.
