Title: Secure Access Project Implementation for a Commercial Building
Client: A multi-tenant office tower in Makati City, Metro Manila
Challenge:
- Required a modern pedestrian access control system designed for turnover and initial occupancy
- Needed seamless integration with fire safety systems during construction phase
- Required compatibility with Mitsubishi DOAS smart elevator systems
- Compliance with local safety and building regulations from day one
Solution:
- Designed and installed modern, sleek, and secure Gunnebo turnstiles
- Implemented Sensor Access (UK) access control panels integrated with the Guardpoint 10 centralized monitoring system
- Developed customized workflows for employees, visitors, and contractors to support phased occupancy
Outcome:
- Delivered a fully operational access control system ready at building turnover
- Successfully supports a daily crowd of around 10,000 badgeholders
- Reduced risk of unauthorized entries during early occupancy
- Streamlined traffic flow during peak hours from the start
- Achieved full compliance with regulatory standards prior to handover
- Enhanced user convenience and long-term building security
- Mitsubishi Destination Oriented Allocation System (DOAS) integration with turnstile gates creates a seamless, touchless security and elevator dispatch system. When a user presents their credential at the turnstile, the smart system instantly authenticates them, assigns the most optimal elevator car, and displays the assigned car on a screen—all without needing to press a button inside the elevator.
