Abbeyford Children’s Home – FAAC Automatic Gate Installers

Client: Abbeyford Children’s Home, St Helens
Project: Installation & Servicing of Automated Swing Gate System
Location: St Helens, Merseyside

Do to the sensitive nature of the childrens home Mere UK we asked to supply a solution to ensure the safeguarding of both the chidren and for the carers. Due to the only one entrance to the home Mere UK automated the existing gates to allow the access for both vehicles and pedestrians, an additional return fence panel was installed to create an opening area for the gates to drive open to.

The vehicle gate has been installed with 2 x FAAC automatic gate operators controlled via a FAAC 455D control panel. Entry through the vehicle gate to the site is controlled by a bellisimo systems video intercom that has been installed for visitors and deliveries to gain access that is monitored from the school’s reception.

Exit from the school vehicle gates is obtained by the use of vehicle induction floor loops installed in the secure area. An over-ride key switch has been installed to allow for the vehicle gates to be over-ridden.

Professional Automatic Gate Installers for Existing Gates

As experienced automatic gate installers, Mere UK was appointed to automate the existing entrance gates at Abbeyford Children’s Home, improving site security and access control without the need to replace the existing gate structure.

The project involved the installation of FAAC gate automation equipment, safety devices and control systems to transform the manually operated gates into a fully automated access solution. By retaining the existing gates, Abbeyford Children’s Home was able to benefit from modern automatic gate technology while reducing the costs associated with a complete gate replacement.

Our engineers carefully assessed the condition, weight and operation of the existing gates before selecting the most suitable automation equipment. The completed system provides reliable day-to-day operation, improved safeguarding, controlled vehicle access and enhanced security for residents, staff and authorised visitors.

Mere UK regularly works with schools, healthcare facilities, local authorities, children’s homes and commercial organisations throughout Merseyside and the North West, delivering automatic gate installation, gate automation upgrades, servicing and ongoing maintenance for both new and existing gate systems.
