Mobile gate installed less than two hours after collision
At Universal Transport & Flytteforretning, a logistics and removals firm in Vejle, one of the gates to a large area was recently damaged when a truck collided with it:
“He wrecks both the gate and the tracks – four posts need to be replaced, and I can see that it will take several weeks before we have a new gate and fencing installed. The repairs alone will be expensive, in addition to which it will be necessary to have a guard patrolling the area 24/7, because that is what our customers expect – that their goods are kept safe.” – Jan Erik Bergholm, warehouse manager at Universal Transport & Flytteforretning A/S
Mobile gate from Mobile Gate Security
As it happens, a technician from Mobile Gate Security’s distributor was busy working on another job on the other side of the road, and realised that help was needed.
“He comes over and starts telling us about the mobile gate from MGS, and within the space of 10 minutes I’ve decided that it’s the right solution. The technician calls in, and finds out that the gate is in stock, and one and a half hours later everything is in place and up and running again!” – Jan Erik Bergholm, warehouse manager
Installation with integrated access solution
At Universal Transport & Flytteforretning A/S, constant security is required because of all the valuable property which is stored on the premises. The gate is closed from 17:00-06:00, so drivers and other persons use a code to access the site.
“With the mobile gate, we have exactly the same access solution, so we haven’t noticed anything different after the mobile gate from MGS was installed. After the accident, the technician asked: Does it need to operate in the same way? To which I replied: Ideally! It has been running exactly as if the old gate was still in place – no complaints at all. And lots of people are passing through that gate all the time.” – Jan Erik Bergholm, warehouse manager
Fast response time
The mobile gate from MGS is a moveable unit comprising a container and a fixed sliding gate with gate automation. We will remove the old gate and install the mobile gate, and connect it to the existing access control. And, of course, we will remove the mobile gate once the permanent solution is up and running again.
“I had not heard about the product before, but I think it’s fantastic and incredibly smart. It took no more than an hour and a half to set it up, so I was able to leave for the weekend knowing that everything was safe and secure.” – Jan Erik Bergholm, warehouse manager
