Nice, along with its HySecurity division, is set to showcase the StrongArm® M30 crash-rated vehicle barrier at the upcoming Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2026 event, taking place from September 14–16 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.
Visitors to Booth #1752 will have the chance to witness live displays of this well-regarded hostile vehicle mitigation technology. Additionally, attendees can explore how Nice supports the security sector with an extensive range of perimeter protection solutions, bolstered by engineering and specification services for varied applications including commercial, industrial, government, and critical infrastructure.
Perimeter Protection Systems
Jeff Shaw, Chief Product Officer at Nice, emphasizes the company's commitment at GSX to assist security professionals in designing robust perimeter protection systems that prioritize security, safety, efficient vehicle flow, and reliability over time. "While StrongArm is our featured demonstration," he notes, "It represents decades of engineering innovation in our perimeter protection portfolio. Our aim is to help consultants, architects, end users, and systems integrators pinpoint the ideal solution for each application, whether it’s for critical infrastructure, utilities, transportation hubs, corporate campuses, or commercial sites."
Protecting Critical Infrastructure
This includes hydraulic gate operators, gate automation for both commercial and residential use
The highlight of Nice's GSX display, the StrongArm® M30, is designed to halt a 15,000-pound vehicle while ensuring swift passage for authorized traffic, thanks to its unique dual-arm hydraulic system that allows opening in as little as six seconds. This reduces traffic slowdowns without sacrificing safety. Constructed in the USA with aircraft-grade hydraulics and robust steel, the StrongArm is built for ongoing performance in severe environments, such as government locations, military bases, utilities, airports, data centers, and other high-security areas. A five-year warranty further enhances its dependability.
Though the StrongArm is the central feature at GSX, representatives from Nice will be on hand to present its full suite of perimeter protection products. This includes hydraulic gate operators, gate automation for both commercial and residential use, intelligent controllers, and integrated access technologies suitable for projects ranging from gated communities to mission-critical infrastructure. Specialists in perimeter protection will be available to discuss upcoming initiatives, application obstacles, and best practices for specifying secure vehicle access systems.
Residential Gate Automation
In addition to products, the Nice HySecurity Specification Sales Team collaborates with architects, engineers, security advisors, and systems integrators to meticulously assess vehicle flow, site conditions, threat levels, operational requirements, environmental factors, and applicable safety standards before recommending equipment. Engaging early in the design phase ensures that each perimeter protection solution is optimally aligned with its intended application, thereby minimizing project risks and boosting long-term performance, reliability, and lifecycle value.
Attendees at GSX are encouraged to visit Booth #1752 to view live demonstrations of the StrongArm® M30, watch digital footage of crash tests, and consult with Nice's perimeter protection experts on forthcoming security initiatives and the firm’s holistic strategy for securing facilities across commercial, industrial, government, and critical infrastructure sectors.
Nice and its HySecurity division will demonstrate the StrongArm® M30 crash-rated vehicle barrier at GSX (Global Security Exchange) 2026, September 14–16, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.
Visitors to Booth #1752 can experience live demonstrations of one of the industry's most trusted hostile vehicle mitigation solutions while learning how Nice supports security professionals with a comprehensive portfolio of perimeter protection technologies, engineering expertise, and specification services for commercial, industrial, government, and critical infrastructure applications.
Perimeter protection systems
"Our focus at GSX is helping security professionals design perimeter protection systems that balance security, safety, vehicle throughput, and long-term reliability," says Jeff Shaw, Chief Product Officer at Nice.
"While StrongArm is our featured demonstration, it represents decades of engineering innovation across our entire perimeter protection portfolio. Our goal is to help consultants, architects, end users, and systems integrators identify the right solution for every application, whether protecting critical infrastructure, utilities, transportation facilities, corporate campuses, or commercial properties."
Protecting critical infrastructure
The focus of the Nice exhibit is the StrongArm® M30, a crash-rated vehicle barrier engineered to stop a 15,000-pound vehicle while maintaining rapid throughput for authorized traffic. Featuring a patented dual-arm hydraulic design, the StrongArm M30 opens in as little as six seconds, helping reduce traffic congestion without compromising security.
Designed, tested, and manufactured in the USA, StrongArm combines aircraft-grade hydraulics with heavy-duty steel construction to deliver continuous-duty performance in demanding environments such as government facilities, military installations, utilities, airports, data centers, and other high-security sites. A five-year warranty further underscores the platform's long-term reliability.
Mission-critical infrastructure
Although StrongArm is the featured product at GSX, the Nice team will also be available to discuss the company's complete portfolio of perimeter protection solutions, including hydraulic gate operators, commercial and residential gate automation, intelligent controllers, and integrated access technologies that support projects ranging from gated communities and commercial campuses to mission-critical infrastructure.
Security consultants, architects, engineers, systems integrators, and end users are encouraged to meet with the Nice perimeter protection specialists to discuss upcoming projects, application challenges, and best practices for specifying secure, reliable vehicle access systems. Whether a project requires crash-rated hostile vehicle mitigation, heavy-duty gate automation, or intelligent perimeter access management, Nice offers the engineering resources and application expertise to help identify the most effective solution.
Residential gate automation
Beyond its products, the Nice HySecurity Specification Sales Team partners with architects, engineers, security consultants, and systems integrators to evaluate vehicle throughput, site conditions, threat levels, operational requirements, environmental factors, and applicable safety standards before equipment is specified.
By engaging early in the design process, the team helps ensure each perimeter protection solution is properly matched to its application, reducing project risk while improving long-term performance, reliability, and lifecycle value.
GSX attendees are invited to visit Booth #1752 to experience live StrongArm® M30 demonstrations, view digital crash-testing footage, and meet with Nice perimeter protection experts to discuss upcoming security projects and the company's comprehensive approach to securing commercial, industrial, government, and critical infrastructure facilities.
