The Project

We were commissioned to design and deliver a secure, automated vehicle access solution for a busy chemical manufacturing plant with two separate vehicle entrances. The primary objectives were to improve site security, increase operational efficiency, and minimise the time entrances remained open during vehicle movements.

Working closely with the client, we developed a bespoke solution tailored to the site’s operational and security requirements.

Entrances One & Two

Both entrances had a fully compliant 7-metre clear opening double-leaf bi-folding gate which was designed, manufactured in-house, and installed. The gates were fitted with monitored motorised drop-bolt locking mechanisms to provide enhanced security and operational reliability.

The gate system was integrated with a fully compliant 7-metre automatic barrier featuring both top and bottom grilles. The automatic barriers were incorporated to reduce the amount of time the entrance remained open while vehicles were entering and exiting the facility, thereby improving security and traffic flow.

Design and Project Delivery

The entire project was delivered in-house, including:

  • Site surveys and consultations
  • System design and engineering
  • Detailed schematic drawings
  • Civil engineering requirements and coordination
  • Manufacture of the bi-folding gates
  • Installation and commissioning of all equipment

Outcome

The completed system provides the client with a secure, compliant, and highly efficient vehicle access control solution across both entrances. The combination of automated barriers and bi-folding gates significantly reduces entrance open times, improves traffic management, and enhances overall site security while supporting the operational demands of a busy chemical plant.
