What we plan and deliver

Different entrances.
One considered approach.

A staff pedestrian entrance and a vehicle lane serve different purposes. We consider each route, its peak demand and its operating responsibilities before recommending an access arrangement.

Installation work at a pedestrian turnstile entrance

Vehicle access & booms

Assess lane layout, approach space, traffic demand and authorised entry methods. The boom, controls and supporting works must suit the actual entrance.

Pedestrian turnstiles

Plan suitable pedestrian control for staff or shared facilities. We consider user flow, credential readers and the space available around the installation.

Credentials & permissions

Discuss card, tag, biometric or other supported entry methods. User groups and time-based permissions can be included where the chosen platform supports them.

Visitors & reception

Agree how visitors, contractors and deliveries request entry and who authorises them. Compatible intercom or reception workflows can form part of the design.

Cabling & integration

Plan controller locations, cable routes, network links and power. Compatibility checks determine how existing CCTV or access equipment can be included.

Release & continuity planning

Discuss accessible routes, emergency arrangements, manual operation and power interruptions with the responsible site professionals before the scope is finalised.

The right starting point

Plan for the
busy moments too.

The entrance should support your operation at shift changes, during deliveries and after hours. We discuss how people and vehicles arrive, where delays occur and how authorised exceptions should be handled.

  • Separate vehicle and pedestrian requirements in the brief.
  • Identify visitor handling and reception responsibilities.
  • Confirm which civil, electrical and integration works are included.

Explore access control installation
Can you connect a boom to our existing access system?

We first check the boom controls, access platform and available interfaces. Integration is included only after compatibility and the required behaviour are confirmed.

Do we need a boom gate or a turnstile?

A boom controls a vehicle lane; a turnstile manages a pedestrian route. Some sites need both, with the layout and operating requirements planned separately.

Can visitors and staff use different access methods?

Yes, where the selected system supports the arrangement. We can plan staff credentials alongside a defined visitor approval process and suitable access permissions.

What affects the cost of the installation?

Pricing is tailored to the equipment, entrances, existing infrastructure and supporting work required. Civil work, electrical work, software and integration responsibilities should be clear in the agreed quotation.
