The ARX Stopper!™ is an effective, pedestrian permeable hostile vehicle mitigation system, which is designed to prevent vehicles from progressing into pedestrian areas, while enabling normal flow rates of foot traffic.
A surface-mounted HVM system, ARX Stopper!™ can be deployed across pavements, roads or uneven surfaces, with rapid installation by trained SAFECROWDS operatives in IWA-14-1:2013, PAS 68:2013 or VADS compliant configurations, depending on the site specific risk assessment and specification.
Each robust, two-component, modular HVM unit is assembled on-site and housed within a box casing, which can be customised to display your brand, advertising or wayfinding information.

ARX Stopper!™ HVM Installation
ARX Stopper!™ is an HVM system made up of two-component modules, which can be transported to site easily and installed quickly in-situ.
Each modular unit comprises arms with spiked ‘crowns’, which are designed to stop vehicles on contact. Trained SAFECROWDS installers fit the two sections together and fix them in place with a securing bar. Anchor bars are then used to connect individual units to each other using steel rope, and units are positioned according to the individual risk assessment and specification for each site.
Box casings are used to conceal each ARX Stopper!™ unit for safety and aesthetics, with optional branding or graphics. The steel ropes connecting the HVM modules are also concealed to avoid trip hazards.
At SAFECROWDS, we can specify and install ARX Stopper!™ alongside traffic management planning and implementation as part of an integrated traffic management and counter terrorism strategy and deployment.
ARX Stopper!™ HVM Performance
An ideal HVM solution for high footfall events and ingress/egress locations, the ARX Stopper!™ is an extremely robust hostile vehicle mitigation system, while offering an aesthetically pleasing option that can be branded to integrate with any event or environment.
Pedestrians, cyclists and families with pushchairs can move freely through the HVM protection, while vehicles are stopped on contact. The modular HVM system provides both a visual and physical deterrent to vehicle attacks and clearly identifies any protected road closures to prevent accidental incursions.
