Secure access for the Court of Trieste
The project of a COVID-19-proof access control system in a high-traffic facility
To manage the flow of a large number of internal and external people, some corporations need to equip themselves with customized access control systems. This happens with public administration buildings and large companies, where the focus on access security goes along with a careful choice of turnstiles and other accessories. Value and limits of the buildings involved and the need for installations in outdoor spaces are also to be considered.
These are complexes projects requiring careful analysis and constant customer support, from site survey to installation, commissioning and after-sales service.
The context
The Trieste Courthouse is located in the Palace of Justice in Trieste, a single complex built between 1895 and 1929, featuring 400 courtrooms. The palace houses various entities, including the Court of Appeals, the Public Prosecutor’s Office, a police station, the notarial archive and other offices.
The building spans four levels and boasts decorative columns and some monumental statues of particular value. The remarkable beauty of the premises has led several film production companies to request its use for shooting and setting up scenes.
Especially for security reasons, there is a need to monitor in real-time the flow of the large number of people in the facility, as well as to identify, also in real-time, those entering and exiting the courthouse.
The necessities
In an initial phase, the client requested a comprehensive solution for access control of external personnel who visit the facility every day.
Following the COVID-19 emergency and the Prime Ministerial Decrees (DCPM) that came into effect, there was also a need to counter the spread of the pandemic within the Public Prosecutor’s Office premises. This included temperature measurement at the entrance and the adaptation of the entire previously installed solution.
The solution
The GoPlanner Access modules (for access control) and GoPlanner Visitors (for visitor management) were chosen and installed.
The flexibility of the GoPlanner suite served as the foundation for building a customized solution.
After analyzing the peculiarities of the building, our experts, with the assistance of industry technicians, prepared the installation project for two access control gates.
The results
The client immediately realized the benefits of the new access control system, especially in managing external visitors to their organization, also in light of the new measures for pandemic containment. At both access points, elegant and high-quality turnstiles and terminals equipped with state-of-the-art technology were installed.
The thermal camera positioned on the turnstiles allows access only to individuals with a temperature below 37.5°C and wearing a mask.
The client was supported in all phases of the project, including the post-sales phase. Thanks to the continuous work of our research and development department, the client uses constantly updated software.
Products choice
GoPlanner Access and GoPlanner Visitors Softwares, delivered in the cloud, were combined with a careful selection of hardware products: turnstiles, gates and terminals were chosen according to the specifics and needs of each venue.
