Access control security for emergency services

Access Control Systems for the Emergency Services

  • Protect assets and personnel with turnstiles and barriers
    Keep your site and staff safe with turnstiles and gates for both indoor and outdoor use. Enhance your access control with barriers at key points to provide a physical obstacle and limit admittance to certain areas to specified staff, contractors and visitors.
  • Hands-free access control for ease of use
    Long-range card scanners and Automatic Number Plate Recognition can allow access to official vehicles, even travelling at speed, whilst restricting entry to unauthorised users. Fast-moving or high-foot-traffic areas can benefit from hands-free facial authentication, especially if other credentials are difficult to present or are unhygienic.
  • Reliable and trusted security
    Tensor is accredited to the very highest standards, including ISO 27001, NSI NACOSS Gold and Cyber Essentials, so you can be confident your access control is designed, installed and supported to the same standard for premises such as police, fire, ambulance and coastguard stations. With our Helpdesk on hand to answer queries, your Tensor Access Control system will give you the protection and security you need to continue delivering vital services.
