Client Brief:To secure the entrance to a large business park and to reduce break-ins and theft from the business units.
The gate had to open automatically in the morning and close again at the end of the working day. However, as some of the business operate 24-7, an access control system with time and attendance monitoring was to be installed on both entry and exit. Each staff member from each business was issued with their own personal pin code and the system had to have the facility to remotely disable individual pins or all pins for each business. Combined with CCTV the systems use would be monitored remotely.

Since the gate was installed our Client achieved 100% occupancy for the first time, has achieved higher rents and their tennants are extremely happy with the much improved security.
The access control and CCTV has proved invaluable when the gate has sustained mild damage, as the user can be tracked by both CCTV and the date/time stamp from the access control system.
This has simplified the process of identifying those responsible for damage and the billing for repairs.
This gate has even survived being accidentally driven into by and 8 tonnne coach with minimal damage - See our news Story
