The Cova SlideMaster 40 (CSG 10140) Crash-Tested Sliding Cantilevered Gate is an advanced hostile vehicle mitigation solution engineered for sites requiring robust security at a lower cost.

Designed by Cova Security Gates, this crash-tested sliding gate delivers proven protection against vehicle-borne terrorist threats and ram-raid attacks, making it an ideal choice for critical infrastructure and high-security perimeter applications.

Successfully tested to PAS 68:2010 standards, the Cova SlideMaster 40 achieved the following ratings:

3000 mm wide x 2400 mm high: V/7500[N2]/64/90:1.7/0.0
5000 mm wide x 2400 mm high: V/7500[N2]/64/90:2.0/0.0
8000 mm wide x 2400 mm high: V/7500[N2]/64/90:3.0/0.0

These results confirm the gate’s ability to effectively stop a 7.5-tonne vehicle traveling at 40 mph, with zero vehicle penetration – offering a secure barrier to high-risk access points.

Constructed from standard steel sections rather than bulky or overly heavy materials, the Cova SlideMaster 40 offers an aesthetically clean design that integrates seamlessly into the existing perimeter or building line. It supports architectural enhancements such as cladding, mesh infills, and security toppings, allowing it to align visually and functionally with broader high-security fencing systems.

One of its standout features is the minimal foundation depth of just 400 mm, making it especially suitable for sites with shallow or utility-congested substructures, where deep foundations are either not feasible or highly costly.

Available in gate widths from 3000 mm to 8000 mm and heights from 1800 mm to 2400 mm (custom heights available upon request), the Cova SlideMaster 40 is a highly flexible sliding gate system. It is also available in a non-crash-tested version where vehicle impact resistance is not required but the same design continuity is preferred.

Finished in any RAL colour, the gate can be supplied to match site aesthetics, making it ideal for embassies, military sites, utility infrastructure, transport hubs, petrochemical facilities, and financial institutions.

In summary, the Cova SlideMaster 40 Crash-Tested Sliding Cantilevered Gate combines certified impact resistance, cost efficiency, and aesthetic flexibility—offering a secure and visually cohesive perimeter protection solution for today’s high-risk environments.
