Solution for a Luxury Community Provides Vehicle Access, Without Inconvenience
Highland Springs, located just outside of Springfield, Mo., has more than 500 residents and various contracting workers for landscaping and infrastructure upgrades. For these residents and contracting workers, the luxury community needed a system for secure vehicle access. An important requirement was that congestion at the gate had to be prevented; the solution had to be convenient for the drivers of the vehicles. Besides the residents and contracting workers, access for visitors and other non-residents is managed by a staffed guardhouse.
Bobby J. Smith, director of security for Highland Springs, worked with integrator Federal Protection of Springfield to find the best technological solution that would serve the needs of the community without being intrusive on the residents or slow their entry into the community.
