Automated Parking for Swedbank Employees
Swedbank’s employee car park is equipped with Entringo Parking, a solution that automates vehicle entry and exit while managing parking access rights. Cameras read vehicle number plates as cars enter and leave the car park. If a number plate is registered in the system, the barrier opens automatically.
Employees can drive in and out without using an access card or taking a parking ticket, making everyday parking simpler and more convenient.
Real-Time Information on Available Parking Spaces
Swedbank’s car park also uses Parksol’s parking guidance system, which relies on camera-based technology to detect occupied parking spaces and identify incorrectly parked vehicles.
The system feeds this information to digital displays, which show the number of available spaces in real time. This makes it easier for drivers to navigate the car park and find a vacant spot.
Security Bollards Protect Pedestrians in High-Traffic Areas
Arter Quarter is located at the intersection of two busy streets, making pedestrian safety and protection against potential vehicle-related threats particularly important.
Four different models of ATG Access security-rated bollards have been installed around the perimeter. Designed to stop vehicles travelling at high speeds, they help prevent vehicles from entering the quarter accidentally or deliberately and putting people at risk.
The bollards have been selected to suit different locations, requirements and assessed security risks. Fixed bollards provide permanent protection against vehicle access, while automatic retractable bollards can be lowered to allow authorised vehicles to enter when needed.
Security Portals for Controlled Employee Access
Security portals control access to Swedbank’s employee-only area. The doors remain closed until an authorised access signal unlocks the first door, allowing only one person to enter at a time. Biometric readers then verify the individual’s identity, granting access only to employees registered in the system.
Unlike access cards, biometric identification links access rights directly to the individual. This reduces the risk of lost or stolen cards falling into the wrong hands. Employees also no longer need to carry an access card or worry about misplacing it.
Beyond access control, the security portals provide an additional layer of physical protection. They meet RC-class burglary resistance requirements and are also certified to the relevant BR bullet resistance level. Both properties have been tested and certified in accordance with applicable standards.
“It was exciting to be involved in this project from the very beginning and to see how an initial idea developed into a complete, well-thought-out security solution. As this was something that had never been done before, it took quite a bit of creative thinking and problem-solving. But projects like this are a great opportunity to create something truly special. A big thank you to Swedbank and Arter for their trust and excellent cooperation!”
