"The barrier-free operation and range of enclosures
that Fastlane is available in, meant that it was the only
turnstile option that could meet the criteria of detecting
unauthorised entry, eliminating tailgating and pass-back,
in the discreet aesthetic form that was required."

"We recommended Fastlane optical turnstiles’
comments John Moran of GES ‘because they replace the
physical barrier of traditional turnstiles with infra red
beams thereby allowing it to fit in with the architects
design for the reception area. Fastlane still provides the
level of security required but is much quicker and more
convenient for the staff and visitors to use and it is also
compliant with the UK Disabilities act. The building uses
a lot of Fossil stone marble for its flooring and reception
desk and we where able to have the Fastlane vanity tops
finished in the same material to help blend the units in
to the overall design concept of the building."

"Traditional turnstiles are just too slow; Fastlane
offered us an excellent alternative to conventional turnstiles.
They provide us with an effective method of security, congestion
is kept to a minimum, they are very simple to use and they
blend in particularly well with the design scheme of the
new building."

my responsibility to ensure a secure environment without

"Door Detective is a great supplement to our access
control system. It is being used in secure areas where we
have to ensure only authorised staff has access, and the
access control system by itself may not have been enough.
For staff using Door Detective there is no difference, but
now Gemplus security personnel are alerted each time someone
tries to tailgate through a key area."
Geoff Flowers, Corporate Security, Gemplus |
HboS
“Fastlane plus was an ideal choice for the HBoS as
it allows extremely fast throughput of authorised people
and alerts the security team to any unauthorised entrants,
whilst also physically deterring them. The Fastlane’s
aesthetics are very much in keeping with the building reception,
thereby maintaining a favourable impression to colleagues
and visitors of HBoS."
Peter Marsh, Senior Project Manager, HBoS |

"I think this is yet another example of two companies
creating added value for its customers through effective
collaboration. Definitely a case of 1+1=3,"

Computer Services (KCS)
"We did considerable research in to the market and
Fastlane plus was the ideal product for this application.
We required a high throughput turnstile to match the fast
acting Lenel system whilst at the same time there was limited
space available in some of the reception areas. Fastlane
plus has the smallest foot print of any speedgate we came
across on the market and its fast acting barriers arms combined
with its advanced intelligence made it the ideal product.
The Fastlane plus speedgates and Lenel system have been
an ideal integration to provide us a highly secure entrance
control system with the ability to match flow rates demanded
by such a busy office building."
Daniel Van Kerckhove, from KCS |
Lloyd’s
of London
"The Fastlane range offered us the solutions we were
looking for, a small discreet turnstile system that can
handle high levels of throughput and give us the security
we need whilst not impacting on our unique building design."
John Mitchell – Lloyd’s Head of Property |
Lloyds
TSB
"We required a turnstile that would create as little
impact on the building as possible. We looked at a variety
of options ranging from traditional turnstiles, glass turnstiles
and Fastlane. The Corporation of London suggested the use
of Fastlane, as its lack of physical barrier provides a
very open appearance. This, combined with making the unit
out of glass, gave us the most discreet option possible
whilst maintaining security."
Julian Castle, the senior architect for Lloyds TSB |

“Our reception area is particularly busy with nearly
2000 staff and visitors combined so the fast throughput
of Fastlane plus was key to us; additionally the slim pedestal
design has allowed us to maximise the number of lanes we
can fit in our reception area. We now have a secure perimeter
point at the reception and the staff and visitors alike
can quickly pass through with no hold-ups.”
Thomas Roche, Facilities Specialist at Microsoft |
Mitsubishi
Corporation
"We recommended the Fastlane plus R400 MA as it answered
Mitsubishi’s requirement for a user friendly, yet secure
security perimeter into the building, while the slim pedestal
design and brushed stainless steel finish suited the surrounding
architecture perfectly."
Mr Nakamura from Yonei & Company |
MyTravel
"Everyone at MyTravel has been very impressed with
the new Fastlane Glassgates, which greatly enhance the corporate
image of our reception area. The staff fully appreciate
the need for additional security measures and the fast throughput
has meant that people aren’t inconvenienced by the
new system."

“We can see now why Tilney Shane specified Fastlane
Glassgate speedgates from IDL, as they successfully combine
the high security needs and throughput requirements of the
modern office environment with the aesthetics to match.”
Adam Rowe, Office Projects Ltd |
Portman
Square Properties (35 Portman Square)
“The Fastlane Glassgate entry barriers are an important
part of the security regime installed in our office building
at 35 Portman Square, London W1 to prevent unauthorised
entry without imposing on the design of our main reception
but at the same time maintaining an easy user friendly swipe
card system which is very important in multi tenant properties”
Richard Ashby, Managing Director of Portman Square

Prudential
"Fastlane offers us a very strong security perimeter
but does not detract from openness of our reception area
and atrium. Fastlane’s technology has enabled us to
comfortably process over a thousand people per day. Sight
lines and openness have been fundamental to the design of
the office building, the use of a barrier turnstile would
have been counter to this."
Gavin Davies, Head of HQ Services for Prudential |
QVC
"We tried our best to go faster than Fastlane could
process, but we just couldn’t do it."
Michael A. Gips, senior editor of Security Management

Railtrack
"Fastlane allows all authorised staff quick, unimpeded
access with an alarm activating to alert security only in
the event of an unauthorised entry attempt. The company
regards its clients as business partners so it was important
that the entrance security maintained a welcoming and trusting
image for visitors. Fastlane’s barrier-free operation
has proved to be the ideal solution."
Gavin Davis, Facilities Manager, Railtrack |

"Fastlane provides the level of security protection
we require, enabling staff to gain rapid and convenient
entry to work. Visitors are greeted with a discreet method
of security screening ensuring that Thomas Cook presents
a relaxed and welcoming presence to clients in which to
do business, whilst detecting all unauthorised entrants."

“We were really happy with the original Fastlane pedestals
installed on site, but with such an increase in the level
of technology available today and the change in architectural
design, not to mention the high level of use they have received,
an upgrade was imminent. Fastlane plus was again the obvious
choice as it gives the same fast throughput required for
such a large number of people, while greatly improving on
the current security and aesthetics.”
