STADIUM ACCESS CONTROL the complete integrated solution for stadium access control and security
stadium security? Zucchetti can do it The issue of stadium security standards is felt by all involved: public administrations, the police, sports clubs and fans alike. Any solution aimed at tackling the issue must first of all be based on prevention and organisational efficiency, to isolate the more boisterous supporters and thus minimise the problem, at least inside the stadium. Thanks to its recognised professional standards in the creation of automatic systems and its extensive expertise in access handling and control, Zucchetti offers the complete solution for controlled entry, the first and indeed inevitable step towards the rationalised management of sporting facilities during important crowd-pulling events. In this way, Zucchetti brings what all sports operators are looking well within the realm of the feasible, while meeting the requirements introduced by new security standards. Zucchetti can make a stadium a safer place. security begins at the entrance To comply in the most appropriate manner with the demands of the stadium security standards (which require automatic control systems at entrances and a total ban on supporters without tickets from entering the venue), Zucchetti has developed an access control and management installation with automatic and total control of turnstiles by means of a dedicated hardware and software system. The clear advantages of the Zucchetti solution can be summarised in a new security Decalogue for stadium entry: 1) electronic checking of entry tickets by automatic system. 2) no entry possible for supporters carrying forged tickets; the turnstile is only released when the system has identified the ticket as authentic. 3) efficient counting of the overall and effective number of entries. The system records not only automatic entries, but also all manual turnstile releases by the entry personnel; in this way the number of entries indicated is accurate. 4) checking system for inappropriate objects (thanks also to the possibility of metal detectors in the turnstiles). Spectators pass through the turnstiles one at a time, and are therefore more easy checked, in number but also as regards the carrying of objects. 5) contextual prevention of large-sized objects given the compulsory single entry of spectators through the turnstiles. 6) rapid processing of entering spectator flows, in both member and ticket-controlled areas. 7) manual release mechanism in the event of public order situations and on agreement with relative authorities. 8) guaranteed access for disabled persons. 9) monitoring of ushers and all entrance personnel (to prevent freebies, for example) with assessment of any extra economic costs incurred by the venue management.
new business for sports facility management While Zucchetti looks after venue security, it also offers sports facility management new opportunities to increase their business. As a matter of fact, the system is not only designed to automatically detect all significant entry data, but also allows the use of smart cards, for members or as electronic wallets. The card can also be used as a prepaid card with a set amount, that can be spent in shops inside or outside the venue, in hypermarkets, restaurant or service station chains, for entry to other sports venues or events, or for other uses, such as for accumulating points in promotional campaigns, obtaining discounts or certain services. Furthermore, the use of the card for purchases also contributes to more accurate profiling of customers, extremely useful for targeted marketing initiatives. The card can be recharged just like any smart card at arranged outlets (dedicated windows, over the Internet or by telephone). security and quality in a solution with numerous advantages Full compliance with current Italian and European standards (UEFA) Flexible and scalable hardware and software to adjust the system to new legislative and environmental requirements.
