Are Boom Gates Popular for Apartment Complex Car Parks?

    Home Commercial Gates Boom Gates Are Boom Gates Popular for Apartment Complex Car Parks?

    For the modern residential building, boom gates are so popular because they provide effective security, manage access, and control traffic flow, ensuring only authorised residents and visitors can enter. This marriage of security and convenience is what residents are looking for in apartment amenities, so boom gates make the building more attractive to buyers and renters alike.

    At Brisbane Automatic Gate Systems, we provide top-quality car park boom gates for residential complexes. Our gates create a physical barrier to deter unauthorised vehicles and help maintain a secure environment, while offering benefits like preventing parking spot theft and improving overall traffic management within the complex.

    What Makes Boom Gates Perfect for Residential Apartment Car Parks?

    What are the Needs of an Apartment Car Park?

    An apartment car park needs to be structurally sound, secure, and accessible for all users. Key features include adequate space for vehicles, clear wayfinding and signage, good lighting, and security measures to prevent theft. Proper ventilation and consideration for environmental impacts like noise and fumes are also important.

    Apartment car park security is key. Boom gates are perfect for enhancing many of the following apartment complex car park needs:

    • Security: Measures are needed to prevent theft from vehicles and the car park itself, such as strong entry systems to stop tailgaters, security for storage cages, and sufficient lighting.
    • Location: Car parks should be located to support the amenity of the surrounding area, such as at the rear or side of buildings.
    • Surveillance: Providing opportunities for informal surveillance from surrounding buildings enhances safety.
    • Ventilation: Proper ventilation is required to manage fumes and ensure air quality for users.
    • Australian Standards: Design and construction must comply with relevant Australian Standards for safety and functionality.
    • Planning Regulations: The car park design must meet local planning requirements, which may include specific provisions for parking spaces, landscaping, and access lanes.

    What’s a boom gate?

    A boom gate, also known as a boom barrier or rising arm barrier, is a mechanical arm that pivots vertically to control vehicle access in a specific area. These gates are used for traffic management and security at places like car parks, toll booths, railway crossings, and industrial sites, by either blocking or allowing vehicle entry. Electric boom gates can be operated automatically with sensors, remotes, or ticketing systems to regulate traffic flow and prevent unauthorised access.

    Benefits of Boom Gates for Apartment Car Parks:

    • Enhanced Security: Boom gates are a physical deterrent to unauthorised access, improving the overall security of the apartment complex and protecting residents’ vehicles.
    • Controlled Access: They provide a simple yet highly effective way to regulate who enters the car park, ensuring only residents, approved visitors, and staff gain entry.
    • Traffic Flow Management: By controlling the number of vehicles entering at any given time, boom gates can prevent overcrowding and keep traffic moving smoothly, especially during peak hours.
    • Parking Space Management: They prevent outsiders from using residents’ valuable parking spaces, which is a common concern in apartment complexes.
    • Easy Operation: Modern boom gates can be operated using various methods, such as remote controls, access cards, codes, or mobile apps, offering convenience for residents.

    Finding the Right Boom Gates and Company for Your Apartment Complex

    To find the best boom gate and installing company for your apartment car park, identify your specific needs, then contact local experts like Brisbane Automatic Gate Systems. Look for providers with a strong track record, comprehensive services including installation and maintenance, tailored solutions, and features such as automated access control that fit your residential complex.

     

    1. Assess Your Car Park’s Needs

    • Traffic Volume: Determine the frequency of operation, especially for high-traffic areas, to ensure the boom gate’s duty cycle can handle the load.
    • Security Level: Identify your desired level of security for the apartment car park.
    • Boom Arm Length: Measure the width of your entry/exit points to select an appropriate boom arm length.
    • Integration Needs: Consider if you need features like remote control, keypad access, mobile app control, or integration with existing security systems.
    • Budget: Have a budget in mind to help you evaluate proposals from different companies.

    2. Research and Contact Local Companies

    Look for reputable companies specialising in gate automation and car park solutions in your area. Brisbane Automatic Gate Systems, or BAGS, are a top provider in South-East Queensland. 

    3. Evaluate Proposals and Services

    When you receive proposals, compare the following aspects:
    • Quality of Equipment: Inquire about the durability and design of the boom gates and their suitability for high-use applications.
    • Service and Support: Check for the company’s responsiveness, installation expertise, and ongoing maintenance services.
    • Customisation: Ensure the company can tailor the system to your specific needs, offering various control options.
    • Cost-Effectiveness: Get a clear understanding of the total cost, including installation, and the long-term value of a high-quality system.

    4. Select the Best Fit

    Choose a company that demonstrates a deep understanding of your requirements and can provide a reliable, cost-effective solution that enhances the security and efficiency of your apartment car park.
