What Gibraltar does

Gibraltar is a Texas-based heavy-civil manufacturer and installer specializing in anti-ram vehicle barriers, high-tension cable barrier systems, and certified perimeter-security products for government and critical-infrastructure customers. The company operates through three divisions — Border Barriers, Perimeter Security, and Fabrication Services — and runs a 300-acre AISC-certified fabrication facility in Marble Falls, Texas with 170,000+ square feet of building space, on-site rail access, and a production capacity of approximately 2 miles of barrier per day. Its portfolio includes M30 and M50 crash-rated bollards (G-1131, G-1350), wedge barriers (G-2000), anti-ram slide gates (G-5500), modular vehicle barriers, portable drop arms, waterborne floating barriers, and highway cable barrier systems, all carrying relevant ASTM F2656 certifications and listing on the USACE DOD Anti-Ram Barrier List and US Department of State Barrier List.

The company's revenue is generated primarily through one-time, project-based B2G and B2B contracts — direct federal awards under DHS/CBP's Secure Border Initiative, supply and installation contracts with the Department of Defense and Department of State, state Department of Transportation highway-safety procurements (Alabama, Idaho), and municipal/commercial installations such as Clark County's Las Vegas Strip pedestrian protection and Ocean City's boardwalk security. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with direct government engagement and general-contractor partnerships (e.g., UNICON Contracting for the Las Vegas Boulevard deployment). Gibraltar maintains a small international footprint via a Middle East office in Dubai, UAE, and is privately held by founder and CEO Bill Neusch, with no disclosed external institutional investment.
