UK access control supplier 8211 Delta Security has installed an innovative car park barrier into North West London’s Waterford Way that gives residents access without the use of a remote control or needing to leave their cars.  
 
The barrier is controlled via Intratone cloud-based technology, with residents’ mobile phone numbers registered into the receiver enabling access by calling a free-phone number.
 
Waterford Way, managed by Origin Housing, is located next to a primary school in a controlled parking zone and a solution was required to solve residents’ access issues caused by unauthorised users during school pick-up and drop-off hours.
 
The barrier gives appropriate access to residents, contractors and emergency vehicles and residents can now either use their mobile phone or manually enter a code to gain access.
