Improving Security at Ahuja Tower with Stellarview's GateGuard ANPR System

Overview

Ahuja Tower, a prestigious 53-story high-rise located in the heart of Mumbai's Prabhadevi district, was facing challenges in managing access control while ensuring top-notch security for its residents and visitors. With an increasing number of vehicles and the need for a seamless yet secure entry process, the management sought an advanced solution that could handle high traffic without compromising on security.

The Challenges

Ahuja Tower faced the following challenges:

1.    Unauthorized Vehicle Access: Outdated access methods posed a major security challenge by enabling unauthorized vehicles to enter the premises.

2.    Traffic Congestion: Manual checks during peak hours caused significant delays, leading to bottlenecks at entry points.

3.    Extended Wait Times: Vehicles faced up to 10-minute delays during peak hours, creating inconvenience for residents and visitors.

4.    Lack of Real-Time Monitoring: The inability to track and control vehicle access in real time made it difficult to ensure efficiency and optimize security operations, highlighting the need for data-driven solutions.

Stellarview's GateGuard ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) system was selected to address these challenges.

Key features of the GateGuard ANPR system include:

 Automatic License Plate Recognition: Ensures only authorized vehicles can access the premises.

 Advanced Technology: Equipped with high-resolution cameras and cutting-edge image processing software for precise vehicle detection and recognition.

Seamless Integration: Easily integrated with the existing boom barrier system at Ahuja Tower.

 A1 Security: The system prevents unauthorized access by verifying vehicle numberplates with a pre-approved database.

 Fully Automated: Automatic recognition and barrier control significantly reduce wait times, ensuring smooth traffic flow.

 Data-Driven Insights: The system provides valuable data for monitoring and optimizing security operations.

Scalability: The solution is scalable to meet the growing needs of Ahuja Tower as more residents move in.

 

Implementation

The implementation process was seamless and minimally disruptive to the residents and daily operations of Ahuja Tower. Stellarview's team worked closely with the building management to integrate the GateGuard ANPR system into the existing infrastructure. The installation included setting up high-resolution cameras at strategic entry and exit points, configuring the image processing software, and linking the system with the boom barriers for automatic access control.
