Given the rising threat of terrorist acts, Harbor Offshore Barriers worked with the US Navy to develop a fence-like floating net system strong enough to repel fast boat terrorist attacks. It is the first company licensed by the US Navy to manufacture its barrier systems for commercial and military use worldwide.

The Harbor Offshore Barriers team installed and continues to maintain US Navy barrier systems in the continental US, Guam, Hawaii, Japan, Iraq, Crete, and Spain. The US Navy consistently rates Harbor Offshore Barriers performance as Excellent or Very Good, resulting in an award bonus for 95% of 26 task orders from 2003 to 2014.

Harbor Offshore Barriers is also protecting the strategic French Navy (Marine Nationale) SSBN base in Brittany.

A patented Fixed Security Barrier (FSB™) system (patent #7,744,313 B2) employs netting reaching up to a depth of 80 ft (2.44 m) to deter underwater terrorist access in intertidal waters. The Port Security Barrier PSB 600™ is the global “gold standard” product that provides true physical protection against 98% of vessels classified by the US Coast Guard as small craft of 65 ft (19.81 m) in length.

Harbor Offshore Barriers is a California-based company with over 15 years experience in designing, manufacturing and installing maritime security barriers worldwide.
