Turnstiles and Access Control in a Guardhouse: The V-Series MAC Portal is Onsite.
Posted on Wed, Jan 27, 2010
In Northern Ohio this week the first of the two NEW V-Series MAC Portals to ship has come together. The portable guardhouse with access control turnstiles shown above is in the final stages of installation. With all three of the units individual MAC modules pulled together this V-Series is ready to be powered up and integrated with access control technologies. This guard shack with turnstiles and access control will be setup to be able to provide reporting and communicate seamlessly with the access control, time-keeping, and security system currently on site.
By providing V-Series customers the option to have a modular unit manufactured off site, shipped in, and assembled on site MSSI has been able to save them significantly on construction, permitting, and engineering costs. For many sites around the U.S. MAC Portals have actually proven to pay for themselves within a short amount of time. Through the use of access control and full-height turnstiles, the MAC Portal and the New V-Series dramatically reduce "theft of time" or "attendance fraud" which according to the American Payroll Association costs companies approximately $491 billion per year.
Pretty soon a fence will be going up and the perimeter security at this site will be finalized in record time. What would've taken a construction company, engineering firm, and architect six months to a year to build has been delivered and will be fully operational within four to six weeks.
