The challenge
The council needed to control vehicle access to its sites and secure staff and plant-room doors, replacing manual barriers and mechanical keys with automated, centrally managed and audited access.
The outcome
Controlled, audited vehicle and pedestrian access across council premises — centrally managed, quick to update, and with a full record of every entry.
What we delivered
- Automated rising-arm barriers controlling vehicle entry to council car parks and yards
- Access control on staff and plant-room doors with role-based, audited entry
- Central management of barriers and doors from one platform
- One maintenance agreement covering the whole estate
