Every property owner – whether they own commercial businesses, retail or wholesale space, a hotel or an industrial site, financial institutions or medical facilities – has a responsibility for providing a safe working environment and securing the valuables and data contained within those structures.
At the same time, security needs to be of a high standard but aesthetically pleasing and not restricting the freedom of authorised movement or operations.
Gunnebo is the world’s leading specialist in entrance control and safe storage solutions, securing a variety of premises through a multi-layered approach. Beginning with perimeter security, Gunnebo’s range includes vehicle boom and spike barriers, bollards, fast-folding gates, road blockers and wedges.
The nature of your business will very much dictate the security installed at the entrance to your building. Industrial sites and sporting complexes may require the installation of a full-height turnstile, whereas a security or environmental revolving door may better suit your premises. For those facilities that require a high level of security, a security booth with two electronically connected doors and an interlocking system would be required.
Once inside the reception area, access to the rest of the building could be controlled through entry-level tripod turnstiles, or alternatively, an entrance gate – a basic security, low-height turnstile with motorised columns that can be fitted with either a one-column drive with three wings or a single wing leaf.
The most customisable and aesthetically pleasing entrance control solution is Gunnebo’s Speed Gate range. Speed gates are arranged in lanes and at least two units are required to create a barrier. When authorised identification is shown, the barrier automatically opens to allow passage. Mechanisms vary, but swinging or retractable sliding panels are most common. Speed gates allow for a high flowrate of up to 60 people per minute and they have a reasonably small footprint.
Once inside the building, Gunnebo can recommend products to safeguard areas, documents and other valuable. Chubbsafes, a Gunnebo brand, is the expert in this field and offers a range of vault and strong-room modules and doors, including a range of bullet-resistant doors.
The Borox Vault Doors are certified burglary, fire and explosive resistant, and the Diamond Record and Strong Room Doors are a range of categorised and non-categorised doors offering security and reinforced protection against burglary.
If your business requires protection against burglary, explosives, attacks using drills and fire, then the Instavault certified modular vaults are fit for purpose. These are demountable and extendible to meet the demand for optimum security.
Lastly in this range are the Chubbsafes bullet-resistant doors, offering multiple levels of protection for external and back-of-house applications. Highly resistant security materials and tried-and-tested designs combine to protect against ballistic and manual attack. These are available with the option of additional blast and fire protection.
