to configure the system to individual users’
needs, the system can be specified to include
StereoVision “time of flight” camera systems
which create extremely accurate 3D images of the
person in the door to determine whether they are
alone. StereoVision is even capable of discerning
between a person and a briefcase or bag.
CASE STUDY
Boon Edam installed Turnlock 100 full height
turnstiles at a multipurpose Pacific Rim shipping
terminal (which cannot be named for security
reasons) as part of a large-scale physical security
plan to protect one of the largest marine terminals
in the region from criminal activity.
A.P. Moller Maersk was awarded management of
this particular terminal for a period of 30 years.
At that time, all entry control and registration
activities were performed manually by security
staff, which detracted from the effectiveness of
procedures and controls.
As part of a continuous improvement program,
the terminal invested in new access control
equipment designed to modernise visitor and
employee application processing and auditing
standards for objectivity and efficiency.
The terminal selected Boon Edam's Turnlock full
height turnstiles to achieve these objectives, for
their robust barrier construction and ability to
efficiently control the flow of visitors and staff
Tourlock security entrance technology Turnlock 100 exterior access system
to the facility, who are recorded also via security
cameras during entry.
In addition to the full height turnstiles, the terminal
installed biometric access control systems,
electronic barriers for vehicle access, a module
to manage visitors, software to register and
control personnel access with capabilities such
as automatic locks and anti-passback capabilities
(a user can only exit if his/her access has been
logged in the system), among others. The system
operates 24/7/365 in order to service the high
level of traffic.
“The product families involved – which have
been proven globally with distribution extending
over 27 countries – are engineered to provide a
cost-efficient way to regulate access to a facility
without having to employ an army of security
people or to construct facilities that look like a
fortress,” says Mr Fisher.
“This is particularly true of businesses such as
logistics facilities that are part of globally fastmoving
industries that have to be able to provide
immediate access to people who are entitled to
have it – but to exclude unwanted visitors posing
threats to physical and cyber security,” he says.
Boon Edam security solutions are designed
to blend security with corporate aesthetics to
provide individually engineered, world-class
entry solutions of a quality already in service with
dozens of Fortune 500 companies including some
of the world’s largest firms. Boon Edam already
has more than 100 installations in Australasia
of its architectural revolving doors and security
entrance systems.

Maintenance engineers around the world are changing to Gates Poly Chain
GT belts. In comparison with other belts, Poly Chain GET drives weigh up
to 35% less, use sprockets that are up to 67% narrower and have up to
4 times more power. Gates Poly Chain GT belts last longer, require no
lubrication and are practically maintenance-free for reduced overall costs.
