Construction Site Security is one of the Biggest Concerns in the Industry

Construction site security is one of the biggest concerns in the construction industry. Construction site theft costs the industry billions of dollars each year. To make sure your site is secure there are multiple levels of protection that you can put into action to improve the security of your construction sites. Perimeter security solutions like those provided by MSSI can be used to prevent intruders and criminals from accessing the perimeter of your construction sites.

It is important on any construction project to keep your area well lit, put up a perimeter fence, and invest in gates with access control turnstiles and climate-controlled guard offices as needed. Gates with turnstiles and access control technology can act as a physical barrier that allows authorized workers through with ease, while visually and physically deterring intruders. 

When construction companies want to go one step further and up their site security game they turn to Modular Security Systems Inc. and the patented Modular Access Control (MAC) Portal. The patented MAC Portal can be more effective than simply putting a guard at the entrance to your construction project. 

Depending on your overall site security needs, MSSI can provide climate-controlled guard offices, containerized turnstile solutions, and access control products to prevent perimeter intrusion and enhance detection capabilities. The perimeter security solutions we provide are portable, turn-key, and can easily be delivered and installed in a fraction of the time of traditional stick-built structures.

MSSI, the Patented MAC Portal, and Alvarado Turnstiles 

It is common for companies like Modular Security Systems, Inc. (MSSI) to team up with or cross market with companies such as Alvarado turnstiles when those companies offer complementary, noncompeting products to the same or similar customer bases. Throughout the company’s history and the manufacturing of the patented Modular Access Control (MAC) Portal MSSI has used and continues to use a wide range of turnstiles from several turnstile manufacturers. Recently MSSI has come to use more and more Alvarado turnstiles based on customer requests both in the US and abroad.

As a U.S. based company for over 60 years, Alvarado has grown into North America’s leading full height turnstile manufacturer. With thousands of installations worldwide, Alvarado’s customers include governmental organizations and many of the world’s largest and best-known companies. “One of the key reasons for Alvarado’s success over the years is building strong relationships with companies like MSSI”, said Nick Simon, National Security Sales Manager for Alvarado. “Incorporating Alvarado into the MSSI solution opens up a new market for us. We’re now able to offer a unique and flexible solution to customers looking for a plug-and-play type option”, said Simon.      

Rob Slagel, President/CEO of Portable Solutions Group, parent company of MSSI says, "Over the past few years we have enjoyed cross marketing opportunities with turnstile manufacturers like Alvarado and others and we look forward to future success in developing relationships with them and access control technology providers. Another thing that has drawn us to partner with Alvarado in these initiatives is that they like us are an American company and manufacture their products right here in the USA."

MSSI meets and exceeds customers’ expectations by providing a fine line of standard and customizable perimeter security solutions. That flexibility and the ability to adapt to the customers site specific security needs has led to an ever-growing number of turnstile installations in a wide range of customized patented Modular Access Control (MAC) Portals.

MSSI & the MAC Lite Provide Easy Compliance for NYC Local Law 196

Modular Security Systems, Inc. (MSSI) has recently received an influx of calls and web traffic from customers in New York and New Jersey that are interested in making sure they are compliant with Local Law 196. This new regulation requires that all construction projects and contractors meet specific safety and security requirements. The portability of the patented Modular Access Control (MAC) Portal allows these customers to rapidly come into compliance with this new OSHA regulation. Through the use of turnstiles and access control technology that tracks users training certifications, contractors in New York can guarantee that all workers onsite are up-to-date with their safety training. Perimeter security for commercial construction sites in major cities like New York is evolving, and to meet the demands of those changing needs, MSSI has introduced a new line of Modular Access Control (MAC) Portals.

The all new MAC-Lite version of the MAC Portal was created specifically for commercial construction projects where foot-print, weight, and delivery of a standard MAC Portal may not be possible. Many commercial construction projects often take place in inner-cities and more urban environments where space constraints call for a smaller, more compact version of our patented MAC Portal with full-height, high-security turnstiles, and access control integration.

Complete with either one or two turnstile lanes, access control technology and a slimmed-down, lightweight design, the new MAC-Lite is already making waves in the commercial construction industry. The new MAC-Lite has already saved many commercial construction projects time and money, and has kept them in compliance with regulations like NYC Local Law 196.

MSSI Secures Major Industrial Construction Projects Around the World

Modular Security Systems, Inc. (MSSI) and the patented Modular Access Control (MAC) have quickly become the perimeter security and access control staple for time and attendance at power, petroleum, and chemical plants across North America and around the world. Our turnkey MAC Portals with access control technology consist of climate-controlled guardhouses, high-security turnstiles, and customer-specified access control technology. In addition to turnstiles and access control our MAC Portals can also be fitted with other security features like surveillance cameras, metal detection and explosive detection equipment if site security requires that level of technology.    

The MAC Portal is a plug-and-play access control solution that comes equipped with state of the art ID verification like biometric iris scanners, fingerprint readers, palm readers or simple proximity card readers.  

Our customers choose MSSI and the patented MAC Portal because they can pick the type and level of technology that they would like installed in their MAC before it ships to their site. Rapidly deploy-able and turnkey installation is the natural fit for major industrial construction projects in a post-9/11 environment where thousands of military base camps and job sites need additional security.   

Many North American plants have contractor entry gates and contractor parking lots that are not equipped with turnstiles or the needed access control in place at those plant entry points. Our patented MAC portals are the perfect fit and are therefore in high demand for refineries, chemical plants and large construction sites around the world.

Although initially developed with site security in mind, our patented MAC Portals are also being used for managing payroll when loaded with access control technology with gate-to-paycheck software.  

Many industrial customers use the MAC Portal when a plant is “manning up” for a large capitol project or turnaround maintenance project and expecting an increase in manpower for a limited amount of time. 

MSSI has quickly developed an impressive list of customers such as Sunoco Petroleum, Sunoco Chemical, Citgo, Marathon Petroleum, the US Air Force, US 3^rd Army, US Pentagon, Jacobs Construction, KBR, Haliburton, Fluor Constructors, CB&I, Northup Grumman, Washington Group, and many others.
