Automatic security gates are essential for commercial premises, enhancing security, streamlining access control, and boosting operational efficiency. By limiting entry to authorised personnel and vehicles, they prevent unauthorised access, theft, and vandalism, protecting valuable assets and sensitive information.
Manual supervision is not needed, freeing up resources for other tasks. These gates can integrate with keycard systems, biometric scanners, and surveillance cameras, offering a tailored security solution.
Additionally, they project a professional and secure image, reassuring clients and employees of their safety commitment. Overall, automatic security gates are crucial for a robust security strategy in any commercial setting.
Building and Construction Security Gates
Construction site theft costs Australian businesses over $50 million Annually, with only 25% of all stolen items ever being recovered, this figure does not consider the disruption to business whilst waiting on replacement equipment.
With tight margins, and even tighter timelines, this process can be very stressful for business owners. To avoid this pre-planning your construction security is essential.
Knowing the types of thieves that target your site is an important first step in this planning process
A report from the Construction and Mining Equipment Industry Group identified the two most common types of construction site theft, being
1. Random or spontaneous thieves that may vandalise the site indiscriminately, steal items or take machinery for a ‘joy ride’ often leaving it damaged a short distance away from site. These criminals offer a secondary risk to businesses as they are unfamiliar with the site and can easily, and seriously injure themselves.
2. Crime Syndicates – The second type of theft, and arguably the reason only 25% of items are recovered, are organised crime syndicates who plan thefts based on their own risk assessments, targeting those sites with minimal or ineffective security systems in place.
The most important precaution businesses can take is to install high fences, Lighting, CCTV and electronic security gates, unfortunately, such installations are often completed at the end of the build, whilst security is left to some temporary fencing and random security patrols.
