Innovative Perimeter Security and Flood Control Solutions
Founded in 1999 by inventor Rick Adler, RSA Protective Technologies has established itself as a national leader in perimeter security and flood control solutions. Our team of engineers and designers collaborates directly with clients' engineering teams and construction firms to deliver seamless, cost-effective installations tailored to specific site conditions. With two decades of experience solving critical safety challenges for federal agencies, Fortune 50 companies, and municipalities, we specialize in developing patented physical barrier systems that meet rigorous K-rating standards. Our solutions undergo analysis by reputable structural engineers and have been implemented in high-security environments worldwide.We maintain a client-centric approach, starting with problem identification and progressing through to customized implementation. Our anti-ram bollard systems offer up to 60% cost savings compared to traditional installations while maintaining Department of State certification. Our flood control innovations combine pre-cast concrete with factory-manufactured components for scalable protection against climate-related threats. We partner with local regulators and construction teams to ensure solutions meet FEMA requirements and adapt to rising water levels. Our commitment to quality is demonstrated through rigorous engineering validation and peer-reviewed technical data.

Services
Retractable Floodwalls
Our patented retractable floodwalls provide scalable protection against rising water threats. Combining pre-cast concrete with precision-engineered mechanical components, these systems offer rapid deployment while maintaining structural integrity. Ideal for coastal and riverine communities needing adaptive flood protection solutions that comply with FEMA regulations.
Anti-Ballistic Hallway Wall
This innovative system creates bulletproof safe zones in seconds. Designed for schools and critical facilities, it features rapid-deployment technology tested to meet stringent security standards. The modular design allows seamless integration with existing building structures while providing immediate protection during active shooter scenarios.
Shallow Mount Bollards
Our patented shallow foundation bollard systems offer K12-rated protection with 60% installation cost savings. These anti-ram barriers require minimal excavation while maintaining Department of State certification. Ideal for urban environments where traditional deep foundations are impractical or cost-prohibitive.
Stormwater Recharge Meter
This automated system measures and controls stormwater infiltration while removing contaminants. Designed for agricultural and urban applications, it features self-cleaning mechanisms that separate oil, foam, and debris. The system helps meet environmental regulations while optimizing water resource management.
Blast Wall Systems
Engineered blast walls provide critical protection against explosive threats. Each system undergoes rigorous analysis by certified structural engineers to ensure performance under extreme conditions. Available in fixed and retractable configurations for perimeter security and facility protection applications.

Questions
What security ratings do your bollard systems achieve?
Our bollard systems are certified to K4, K8, and K12 ratings, with shallow mount options achieving K12 protection - the highest available rating for fixed anti-ram barriers.
How do your floodwalls adapt to rising sea levels?
Modular pre-cast concrete construction allows easy height adjustments as FEMA requirements change. Mechanical components maintain structural integrity while enabling scalable protection against increasing flood risks.
Can your systems integrate with existing infrastructure?
Yes, our engineers collaborate with client teams to ensure seamless integration with existing structures. Custom solutions accommodate site-specific conditions while maintaining security and flood protection standards.
What installation cost savings do you offer?
Our shallow mount bollard systems reduce installation costs by up to 60% compared to traditional deep foundation barriers while maintaining Department of State certification and structural integrity.
How are your products tested and certified?
All systems undergo analysis by licensed structural engineers. Anti-ram barriers appear on the U.S. Department of State's certified list, with testing conducted to meet Department of Defense standards.
