There are many barrier gates brands which you can find in the market. You can get a high-quality barrier gate at a higher price or you can get low budget barrier gates at cheaply in the market.

The most expensive barrier gate might have too many features that you might not need. For example, a high-end barrier gate which supports heavy duty use such as at toll plazas. But for normal residential condominiums, apartments, commercial buildings and industrial factories, it may not be necessary to have heavy duty barrier gates. In addition, bear in mind that barrier gates are just like cars which need maintenance. So, high priced spare parts and availability are key factors you will need to consider.

The cheapest barrier gates might pose quality and after sales issues. The supplier may use lesser quality materials to lower down their costs so that they can offer cheaper selling price to attract buyers. But these low-quality barrier gates commonly have higher problem rates. In addition, spare parts availability is hard to get from suppliers.

MAG barrier gates are designed to achieve the right balance of quality and affordability. Their design philosophy is for users to pay for what is needed thus making their barrier gates more affordable and budget friendly, while still complying to site requirements.

A lot of improvements have been done to upgrade MAG’s barrier gate performance to bring more “value-for-money” to users.

1. MAG BR600T barrier gate design looks good.

Modern Gray concept effectively increases premium prestigious impression of guard house entrance.

2. MAG BR600T barrier gate uses the latest technology in gate automation.

i) BlueSpeed Motor uses lowest possible rotation speed (RPM) with proprietary force rotation ratio technology to achieve high speed opening. This reduces mechanical wear and effectively eliminates any maintenance servicing on the motor.

ii) DSP Dual Spring mechanism to achieve two times smoother arm motion. A combination of different tension forces reduce vibration as the arm stop. The well-balanced arm weight reduces the possibility of broken springs thus reducing down time.

iii) DDS (Dual Detection Safety) to achieve double safety. Innovative design monitors current spike and motor rotation simultaneously to auto-reverse arm if blocked by an obstacle. This is an important safety feature to prevent further damage in the event of the arm hitting a car or pedestrian.

iv) Improved air ventilation fan design located at the top instead of sideways. This allowes cool air to enter from the bottom and exit at the top to achieve more efficient cooling, thus enabling the BR600T series to support higher flow of traffic

v) Improved NLSV2 design using magnet sensor instead of optical sensor. Optical sensors are subjected to interference from ambient light levels. New NLS design removes all blind spot area to achieve a perfect opening and closing consistently.

3. MAG BR600T barrier gate offer full spare part and repairing service locally.

There are many low cost or premium European barrier gate brands in the market that require spare parts to be ordered on demand from overseas which will sometimes take 2 to 3 months.

Availability of spare part and local service support is a very important factor to consider when choosing your barrier gates. MAG offers full spare parts and repairing services locally to ensure barrier gates are up and running in the shortest time possible.

Do you know there is a security loop hole inside common turnstile in the market? After a single user flash card, arm can be push forward and reverse freely to allow multiple users to pass through turnstile without flashing card. This creates a big security flaw at turnstile gate entrance.

The purpose of installing turnstile is to ensure only 1 person can pass through after each user flash card. This is important to ensure only authorized person can enter the building and access control system correctly capture the user access events. This loop hole has defeated the purpose of installing a turnstile at entrance.

MAG Tripod turnstile (TTS351L and TTS311) can minimize this problem with our DLAR technology and SPT alarm. DLAR is a Dual Level Anti-Reverse locking mechanism that prevents the arm to be reversed. The arm cannot be reversed upon reaching 15 deg and 30 deg of rotation. The only way is to rotate forward and pass through completely. DLAR ensure only 1 person can pass through at a time. SPT alarm is a Single Pass Timer alarm that will be triggered once exceeded certain time limit.

Following are Dual level anti- reverse (DLAR) lock and SPT alarm feature in MAG tripod turnstile.

1st Level Lock First level anti-reverse lock at 15 degree. User is not able to rotate arm in reverse direction. User can only move forward.

2nd Level Lock Second level anti- reverse lock at 30 degree. After user pushed the arm forward to passing through , user is not allowed to reverse the arm direction to allow unauthorized user to pass through . User can only move forward and complete the rotation to passing through to the other side.

Single Pass Timer will force user to pass through the turnstile within the time limit so that they do not have extra time to attempt cheating the turnstile.

An effective security system should start at the entrance because this is the first point of contact for anyone who wishes to enter a building. Even the best access control system will not be able to secure the building effectively if the turnstile gate failed to ensure only 1 person can pass through at a time.

MAG tripod turnstile with DLAR technology and SPT alarm is more secure than other competitor turnstile. MAG tripod turnstile is designed to secure your entrance effectively at affordable price with available spare parts and good after sales technical service. Choosing the correct entrance security system is the most important step to securing your building. Let MAG be your first step in security.

Depending on your premise and your needs, CCTV video resolutions can be a key factor for your CCTV requirements. QCIF videos are lowest in quality with pixels of 176 x 120, and 5MP videos are the highest with pixels of 2592 x 1944. Of course, it’s best to get CCTV with high pixels because it’s definitely clearer. Even when you zoom into a video showing the back of a car from a distance, you’ll still be able to see its car plate number.

]

Typically, the MAG 5MP CCTV camera has a high resolution of 2560*1920. Every added pixel of the 5 megapixel cameras will improve the image clarity. So the MAG 5MP CCTV camera is ideal to be used outdoors for clear recognition of human faces and plate number, or mounted in high positions for rich details of far-away objects.

Is the MAG 5MP CCTV camera worth your investment? The answer is an absolute YES.

MAG 5MP CCTV camera captures much clearer images and zoom in details

You know the human face and license plate recognition requires extremely high resolution and a good angle to catch them. Thus, MAG 5MP CCTV cameras provide you the best possibility to get what you need.

If your house was unfortunately suffered from burglars, break-ins or thefts, isn’t it just a pity that the camera footage is useless? What’s the point of having a CCTV camera if it tells you nothing?

See the different here!

Thanks to the super clear images, the MAG 5MP CCTV cameras fear nothing about the distance challenge for their image quality.

Some of you could mistakenly install the CCTV cameras in high positions in order to cover a larger monitoring area. But finally end up with useless blurry view.

With MAG 5MP CCTV cameras, you are free to place it on high positions, like the second floor level, to have it look down on the 150ft driveway or even the whole lack areas without any worry about the blurry resolution.

Higher megapixels allow you to zoom in for rich details, playback zooming allows you to see the far-away objects clearly without getting closer and compromising in image qualities.

An organisation can only operate with a team of employees. In order to make sure the employees are working for the success of the company, biometric time and attendance systems can be used. Time and attendance system are most suited for offices with a large number of employees to keep them in check.
What are some of the benefits of biometric time and attendance system?

1. Eliminate buddy-punching

Buddy-punching is when an employee asks another employee to punch in if they are late or absent, so that it adds hours even when they are not working. This happens a lot with traditional punch card attendance systems. With the biometric time and attendance system, employees won’t be able to do buddy-punching because the system only recognises each person’s unique fingerprint. Employee cannot cheat their working time anymore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Quick and accurate

One of the benefits of Soyal time and attendance system is its ability to identify an employee’s fingerprint efficiently. The Soyal AR837EF model is able to check 1000 fingerprint templates in 0.7 seconds, which makes recording attendance quick and easy. If you arrive right on time, it only takes a few seconds to clock in, ensuring that you won’t be late. Furthermore, the system accurately identifies unique fingerprints that belong to each different individual.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Increase productivity

When employees work fixed hours, productivity will increase too as there is less time wasted. One person in a team who cheats working hours can cause the whole team to slow down, followed by the whole department, then the company. With Soyal’s biometric time and attendance report track employee’s late in, early out and long break to help improve employee productivity. An increased productivity will bring higher profitability to company in the long run.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Security

When integrated with security systems such as door locks and CCTV, this type of time and attendance system benefits the organisation in many ways. Doors to the office or rooms will only open when registered users scan their fingerprints on the device. Therefore, it prevents outsiders from entering the premise without permission, further eliminating theft, burglary or other form of harm towards employees. CCTV camera can take picture snapshot of every entry and exit as visual evidence.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Develop responsible employees

If an employee’s attendance is affecting their work performance, it can be clearly seen on their attendance report generated by the biometric time and attendance system. Absence, lateness and overtime breaks of every individual in the company can be clearly checked by the HR Department. A decrease in performance may cause them to get a warning from superiors and also a reduction in salary. When they realise that their attendance is causing problems to their job, employees tend to be more responsible in managing their time. Ultimately a good biometric time attendance system can help each employee to accomplish more task during everyday working hours.

Nowadays we often hear about terrorist attacks in the news. Terrorists walk freely into a building looking like a normal civilian. Access control systems have become a crucial component to identify people entering into the building. Only with the correct access permission are visitors allowed to enter the building. In general, all users can be divided into 2 types, namely tenant and visitor. Tenants are building users that repeatedly enter / exit the building on a regular basis. Visitor on the other hand are non-regular building users that come to visit a specific tenant in the building. By managing this 2 group of people correctly, you can effectively filter out all the would-be perpetrators from entering the building. This can significantly reduce security threats inside the building.

SoyalEtegra is a security software suite that offers Access Control System (ACS) and Visitor Management System (VMS). Both of these softwares can support picture capture capability. Buildings with an ACS can set access permission for all tenants for e.g. who can go through which door, at what time and using what method (card / pin / fingerprint)? The building can utilize a VMS to monitor incoming visitors and reject all black listed visitors.

All tenants must be registered into the ACS in order to obtain an authorized access card. SoyalEtegra offers SORS encryption, which prevents cards and readers from being cloned. Both the card and reader are encrypted with a unique key A and key B. The card and reader must match each other in order to be granted access permission. The ACS also comes with time attendance, lift access, alarm monitoring and E-map as a complete security monitoring system. The building operator need only to ensure that all tenants are registered into the ACS and they will be classified as a “good” person.

To obtain access permission into the building, each visitor needs to specify which tenant (as registered with the ACS) that they wish to visit and will then be checked-in into the VMS. Each tenant should then verify the identity of their visitor before inviting them to the building, thus the accountability can be assured.

To double up on security, ACS and VMS will automatically capture pictures when a user flashes their card to gain access. These pictures will be associated to the events and user profile registered in the software. In the ACS, a security guard can then view user profile pictures, names, departments, current picture capture, before picture capture, event dates, event time; all in a single screen as each person flashes their card on the reader. All ACS and VMS pictures captured will be stored in a database, and these pictures can later be used as visual evidence in the event of a crime.

A guard may not be able to distinguish if a person who flashes the card during entry,is the same person that flashes a card to exit by just looking at the video live view from a DVR; or continuous running access event log. With ACS,the picture capture feature provides more useful information in a single screen that can help the guard to understanda threat situation more effectively.

SoyalEtegra supports the full series of Soyal access control readers and controllers and is optimized to be more affordable. SoyalEtegra ACS and VMS work hand-in-hand as a complete building security solution, especially for buildings such as condominiums, gated and guarded residential, guard houses, office towers and factories.
