New Gate Installation
01 May 2014
Specialists in the service, repair, maintenance and installation of vehicle traffic barriers, automated swing and sliding gates, turnstiles, bollards and associated access control systems, Perimeter Security Maintenance became part of the BID Group in 2012.

Their latest gate installation took place at
MBW (UK) Ltd in Bolton, Lancashire. MBW began operations in 1967 with its
introduction of a lower maintenance vibratory plate compactor. Today the
Company's product line encompasses a full line of soil compaction products,
equipment for mixing, vibrating, screeding, finishing and slipforming of
concrete, as well as a number of specialty products for construction
applications. All MBW products have been designed and manufactured with one
mission in mind: To advance the state of the art in product design while
providing reliable and reasonable relationships with its customers.
Greig Sandiford – Managing Director for
European Operations says that the requirement for the gate came on the back of
unwanted visitors entering site. "We have needed a more secure facility for a
while and I received two quotes. The first was around 30% cheaper than that of
PSM, but when I looked into the background of the company and all the extra
benefits that came with it my choice was made easy”. "The biggest plus point
for me was the array of safety features that came as standard making the
installation fully compliant with all current regulations. Now the installation
is complete I have no doubt that I made the right choice in choosing PSM, the
level of service offered has surpassed even my expectations and I would now
have no problems recommending gates or any other product offered by PSM or BID
Group Ltd”.
The gate installed measured 8000mm clear
opening width and took one week to install from start to finish. Linked into
the gate is an intercom system allowing the reception to know who wishes to
enter the site before remotely opening it. A modern GSM intercom system allows
visitors and deliveries communication with reception for site entry and staff
can dial into the unit for secure access. Vehicles can exit freely by driving
over an induction loop fitted underneath the top surface of the yard.
