Gates - Sliding

Sliding gates can be installed to match existing security

fencing and are particularly suitable for sites providing

access to a number of different vehicle types. They also

provide almost total security for any site with operating

speeds around 12 seconds. As with most automation

options, sliding gates can be controlled by any number of

access control systems, usually running on an embedded

track, single or double leaf confi guration, suitable for up

to a 20 meter opening.

Gates - Swing

Automated swing gates are a viable alternative to sliding

gates but do not provide any speed advantage. Swing

gates are usually installed as a matter of preference or

because an entry/exit location does not allow for any

other option.

Gates - Cantilever

Cantilever gates work on the same principle as sliding

gates; however they do not touch the ground, but are

suspended on a track permitting crossing of uneven ter-

rain or kerb stones.

Gates – Bi-fold

Fast-opening swing gates which can be confi gured to

open from one side of the opening (2 x leaves) or both

sides of an opening (4 x Leaves). Advantages include

the opening widths & speed of operation achievable

compared to other types of gates (up to 9m span & 7-12

seconds). Construction incorporates mild steel & alu-

minum framework and infi ll would typically incorporate

vertical hollow tube, however the frame can be modifi ed

to work with any existing design or infi ll (subject to maxi-

mum over-all weight restrictions). Bi-folding gates are

ideally suited to sites that require high speed access and

the highest security. The gate can be linked to Access

Control inputs.

Barriers

Access Automation supply and install a number of

barrier systems. One of the more popular options is a

high speed stainless steel barrier, completely secure and

controllable using a variety of access control systems.

Barrier systems operate within 4 seconds and are

typically used on busy sites requiring entry and exit traffi c

management.

Products - Barriers, Blockers & Bollards



Static Blockers, Rising Bollards & Kerbs

We can supply and install static or automated rising

bollards and kerbs. Styles vary from ‘street furniture’ to

industrial and heavy duty designs. Rising bollards and

kerbs can be used in conjunction with gates and bespoke

combinations of access control systems to enforce traffi c

management or restrict access.

Anti-Ram Barriers

The Anti-Ram Sliding Barrier is a formidable security

device for any client concerned about large opening doors

or shutters. Designed & built in house, it can be tailor made

to customers’ specifi cations and size and fi nished in

galvanized or any RAL colour. Manufactured in welded

steel RHS, it utilizes the latest cantilever technology ensur-

ing robustness and reliability.

The system can be manual or motor driven using Access

Automation’s expertise in the automation fi eld. All aspects

of access control can be tailored to the customer’s exact

requirements.

Intercom Systems

Intercom systems allow controlled access of visitors

from a remote location. An audio or video intercom fi tted

provides communication between automation location

and house/offi ce. They can be supplied as a stand alone

system with supplied phones or monitors. These systems

can also be integrated with existing phone and television

networks. We can install either hardwired or digital inter-

com depending upon your preference.

Products - Access Control


Turnstiles

Turnstiles are an effective way of controlling pedestrian

access to a site and can be fi tted internally or externally.

Access Automation can supply and install a variety of

models from basic manual units to higher specifi cation

automated internal units.

Site Assessment and Survey

Access Automation offers a site assessment and/or

survey, usually free of charge, allowing our sales consult-

ants to meet with clients to discuss their requirements

and make recommendations on the most suitable secu-

rity system. Where applicable, our health & safety team

may also become involved in the consultation to provide

method statements & risk assessments – once an order

has been placed.

Design & Manufacture

Access Automation then works closely with customers

to design & manufacture systems to cater for individual

needs and requirements. As a member of AESIF – the

gate industry recognized body - who vet our installations

to ensure the highest quality of installation we may not

submit the cheapest option but our quotations are based

on the solution that we believe is the best quality product

providing the most cost effective long-term solution, tak-

ing into account current safety legislative requirements

and future maintenance and servicing costs.

Councils typically look for AESIF Approved Installa-

tion Companies as a measure of the workmanship they

expect from am supplier. CE Mark’s are issued on new

installations.

We have a fully equipped workshop, utilising components

and electronics from major suppliers including; BFT

Gates, FAAC, Aprimatic and Telguard.

ways and upgrade or in some cases replace the exiting

access security.

Installation of automated gates on the service stations

underneath the 2nd Severn Crossing.

set of our Bi-Fold Gates at the above site. The client had

what was required.

Case Studies


Hertz Car Rental

Installation of 2 road blockers at Edinburgh Airport for

Hertz, at the entrance and exit to their Gold Club car park

using an ANPR system (Automatic number plate

recognition). The client, put us under pressure from the

outset with a short lead time for quoting and the added

challenge of higher than usual security considerations

due to the car park’s location at an airport.

Once awarded the contract we then completed the work

within 3 weeks, including a week long installation on site.

Kew Gardens:

Design and installation of a sophisticated system of

automated pedestrian access turnstiles to regulate safe

entry and exit from the gardens.
