Core offering

Heras designs, manufactures, installs and services integrated perimeter and technical security solutions across Europe, including permanent fencing, gates, vehicle barriers (with certified high-security systems like StronGuard PAS 68 and LPS 1175), electronic surveillance (CCTV, access control, intrusion and fire alarms unified through WinGuard), mobile/temporary fencing (KIBOX, Event-Defender), and recurring service & maintenance contracts supported by the cloud-based KIBO Connector monitoring platform.

Product overview

Heras is Europe's leading provider of integrated 360° security solutions, uniting perimeter fencing and barriers with electronic surveillance and mobile security into a single unified portfolio. The core offering spans four integrated product categories: (1) Perimeter Security covering permanent fencing (palissade, panel, mesh), bollards, automated gates and barriers (including StronGuard PAS 68 and LPS 1175 certified high-security fences), (2) Technical Security / Electronic Surveillance encompassing video surveillance, access control (RBS), intrusion alarms (NOX), perimeter intrusion detection, and the WinGuard unified security management platform, (3) Mobile Security / Temporary Fencing including modular construction fences, KIBOX mobile fencing, mobile gates, mobile boom barriers, road blockers, and certified Event-Defender vehicle barriers, and (4) Fire Detection and Alarm Systems. These are complemented by Cloud Services (cloud-based remote monitoring via KIBO Connector) and Service & Maintenance (24/7 emergency response, preventive maintenance). The KIBO Connector provides live operational status and access control across all connected devices via a computer and smartphone app. Products like M-Fencing, the ECO series (sustainable road safety), and Garda Flood Protection address specialized niche needs within the broader portfolio.
