Yes. in times of collapse, we set up roadblocks/checkpoints with spikebelts (chains with sharpened rebar welded crosswise every few links) on roads leading into the village/town. The guard post has radio/hardwire field telephone communications with the community. If shooting starts, sniper posts get activated and nobody unauthorized comes within 400 meters of the community.

The procedures (TTPs) are well documented and rehearsed.
