Fire fighter and first responder access

Instant trouble free access is especially important for fire fighters, emergency services and disaster relief agencies. The Multi-Lock provides a unique, secure solution to access issues by allowing emergency services unimpeded access whenever the need arises.

In an emergency, locked gates and the ensuing delayed access for tenders, engines and other vehicles can mean minutes of lost time; during which the risk element of any situation can exponentially rise. With a Multi-Lock installed on across roads to risk rated sites and installations, instant unimpeded access is assured. Equally Multi-Locks allow for re-securing of sites after an event reducing the strain on law enforcement agencies in situations where forced entry has been made and key-holders have still to be located.

Whether it’s a fire road, petrochemical site, school, airport crash gate, or other unmanned portal we can provide a Multi-Lock to suit. For highway and rail network access Multi-Locks can provide swift preferential routes for emergency relief via service roads, bypassing conventional routes. In wildfire fighting situations Multi-Locks allow for invaluable shared access with park authorities, private landowners and other agencies.

The use of a dedicated emergency padlock eliminates key-holding and the difficultly of ranking installations by priority. Multi-Locks are also invaluable for shared access to remote equipment stores, marine rescue equipment, look-out towers, transmitters and remote sensing equipment.
