Touchless Entrance Solutions - Helping to Create Safer, more Efficient Contactless Pathways.
The natural evolution of contactless technology is rapidly transforming into touchless-integrated revolving doors and security entrances. We are seeing less of a divide and more of unification between the two technologies. It is here that a greater opportunity for co-operative systems to work together lies.
A great example of using collaborative technology is through the introduction of BIM. Touchless entrances aim to create a truly hands-free experience for users, and we already see sectors such as retail, hospitality, academic institutions, research facilities and hospitals investing in the Touchless experience.
Working with Touchless Solutions
Touchless entrance solutions can easily be incorporated into your entrance. There are so many opportunities to integrate a host of cutting-edge technologies that prevent the need for user contact, such as:
- Gesture Control
- Facial Recognition
- Bluetooth Reading
- Voice Recognition
In these instances, we would use touchless technology to replace, or upgrade, entrances that may unnecessarily rely on, person-to-person / person-device contact - or restrict user building journeys. The benefits of integrating touchless solutions in a building are, but not limited to:
- Less risk of user cross-contamination
- Reduction in building energy waste and costs
- Faster, secure access to destination
- Offers a higher range of security and access solutions
- Continuous industry innovation, enhancing user experience
- Ability to connect once disparate building systems
- Increased visibility to mitigate risks
The Boon Edam Touchless Experience
Our dedicated R&D teams work tirelessly to give our products the vital updates they need. Listening to industry experts and evaluating current climates, our development departments are always looking for new ways to invest in innovation. After many years of developing touchless solutions, we have crafted partnerships which better the lives of our users worldwide.
Facial Recognition Access Control
Touchless Biometric Authentication System
One of the major advantages of facial recognition access control is not having to wait at the point of entry. The software registers a person's face as they approach and can determine whether to allow access in the time needed to arrive at the gate. When the authorised person is near or at the access point, the system opens the gate. This prevents unauthorised individuals from slipping in through the open gate. Also, the person can proceed smoothly through the access point. Boon Edam's products support most third-party facial recognition systems to facilitate a touchless entrance.
Retrofitting and Upgrading to a Touchless Solution
Along with partnerships, we have created packages that allow our existing customers to upgrade their Boon Edam products to a touchless entrance solution. The benefits of upgrading your current entry solution are as follows:
- Converting sliding doors to revolving doors is key to keeping dust, polluted and unfiltered air outside of the building.
- Revolving doors offer controlled building access through segment sizes.
- Automatic upgrades allow for a more contactless entry, decreasing the risk of cross-contamination and regulating user entry.
- There is a wide availability of integrating external access control system, connecting once disparate systems together.
- Retrofitting air curtains can also integrate with internal building technology along with combating polluted air.
Touchless Revolving Door Entrances
In an era of post-pandemic living, we have all adapted our lifestyles to not only protect ourselves but to help protect others too. We at Boon Edam have used years of innovation and experience to design fully integratable revolving doors that can be enhanced to count users, monitor temperatures, prevent crosscontamination, and increase overall entrance security. Whether you are looking for a new touchless
revolving door or, retrofitting an existing entrance into a touchless solution, we have the expertise and the perfect fit for you.
Touchless Automatic Security Entrances
Touchless security entrances allow organisations to control access while providing employees and guests with a hands-free, germ-free entry experience. With over 10 000 touchless security entrances already in service around the globe, we have the expertise to help you improve your physical security plan. Entrances also integrate with access control systems and biometric devices for a seamless entry process that mitigates unauthorised entry.
