Intro

Speed Gates strike a perfect balance between aesthetics and function. 

Their sleek design integrates effortlessly into the architecture of the building, while also providing a clear definition as to where further security clearance is required. 

Having a small footprint, this space-saving solution offers a flexible platform for various Access Control Systems, allowing for high throughput and rigorous security checks, when needed.

Half VS Full Height

Half Height Speed Gate Benefits

Half height Speed Gates enforce a boundary to entry, yet do not disrupt the line of sight.

Their sleek design complements commercial environments, while wide, glass panelled openings ensure compliance with a variety of user types (DDA).

Benefits include:

  • Provides a clear security border, yet the user maintains their situational awareness.
  • Unlike other more robust security hardware, they are more pleasing to the eye, and less abrasive. This provides a more premium experience, and therefore suits commercial and luxury environments.
  • Capable of wide openings, and of glass construction, they provide a perfect solution for DDA (equality) users.

Full Height Speed Gate Benefits

Full height Speed Gates establish a medium security perimeter, offering configurable privacy options via clear, opaque, or one-way glass.

Benefits include:

  • Working in conjunction with wall and ceiling panelling, this solution provides a physical barrier from one environment to another.
  • Glass can be clear, opaque or specified as one way glass, for various levels of privacy / monitoring.
  • The obstacles (doors) are specified to various force levels, providing a physical barrier to entry.
  • Reduces the chances of items being passed from one environment to the other.
  • Infrared motion detection can be implemented horizontally, at waist level, and vertically, following the length of the obstacle (door).

    This creates a comprehensive area for monitoring activity.
