Spotlight on Door Security: Modernizing Entry Control
Woodbine Entertainment Group has installed an entry control system that provides high-security entry control at an affordable cost.
Around the turn of the century, Woodbine Entertainment Group was ahead of the curve. The largest operator of horse racing in Canada recognized that standard access control was not enough to protect the substantial liquid assets the organization routinely had on site. It moved to stop piggybacking and tailgating into the back office at Woodbine Racetrack by putting optical turnstiles in front of the two doorways off the lobby reception area. Any alarm on the turnstile would lock the door to block access, and the system worked pretty well.
