Tank Trap Pyramid Barriers (TTPBs) for Data Centres

Tank Trap Pyramid Barriers – Proven Anti-Vehicle Protection

Tank Trap Pyramid Barriers (TTPBs), often known as Dragon’s Teeth, provide robust, modular anti-vehicle protection for UK data centres and critical infrastructure sites.

Designed to halt, redirect, or disable unauthorised vehicles, these barriers strengthen perimeter security while supporting business operations.

Tank Trap Pyramid Barriers (Dragon’s Teeth)

Key Product Features

Pyramid Module Options
Available as single-pyramid units (~760kg) or three-pyramid interlocking modules (~2,500kg) to suit site requirements.

Rugged Dragon’s Teeth Design
Each pyramid stands approximately 850mm tall with a sharp apex, physically obstructing vehicle undercarriages and preventing intrusion.

Simple, Secure Assembly
Interlocking modules create a continuous, resilient barrier without complex installation.

Heavy-Duty Concrete Construction
Cast from 50N/mm² high-strength concrete, ensuring long-term durability in demanding environments.

Integrated Handling Points
Pin-anchor lift points allow safe, efficient deployment and relocation.

Strategic Data Centre Applications

Perimeter Defence
Rapidly secure data centre boundaries against vehicular threats.

Access Control Zones
Direct or slow incoming vehicles to protect sensitive areas and allow response teams to intervene.

Protection of Critical Infrastructure
Safeguard sites such as substations, power facilities, or server compounds from vehicle-based attacks.

Temporary Security and Event Management
Ideal for emergency staging areas, VIP access, or temporary site protection.
