The Cardiff YMCA Housing Association
The Cardiff YMCA Housing Association is a charitable
Housing Association and a Registered Social Landlord
with the Welsh Assembly Government. It directly
manages board and lodge hostels in the Roath area
of Cardiff providing temporary accommodation for
homeless men and women of all ages and backgrounds.
The Association also provides support to all residents
in their search for permanent accommodation as
well as support for a range of other needs including
employment.

The main hostel of the Cardiff YMCA comprises 76 bedrooms,
management offi ces and a community centre with a theatre and gym.
In addition to residents and visitors on site, there are approximately 60
staff employed. This includes cleaners, caterers, support workers, 24hr
security and reception staff , and a small management team.
“
It is much easier, quicker and
cheaper to enrol and issue a fob
than it is to replace a key.’
Cardiff YMCA installed the Paxton Access Net2 access control system to
cover almost 40 doors throughout the building. In addition to the main
external doors, the system also covers emergency exits, corridors and
management offi ces.
Andrew Jenkins, Cardiff YMCA’s General Manager said, ‘Our primary
motivation is security. Like many organisations our access control
installation began on a very small scale but this has grown steadily as
we have come to realise the full potential of the Net2 system. All the
external entrances and many of the corridor doors are controlled by the
system, including the fi re exits. If the fi re alarm goes off , the fi re doors

time we heard from the coal face....’

will automatically unlock to allow speedy evacuation of the building.
Ceramic locks on fi re doors can get broken quite easily and so access
control on these is very convenient.’
One of the challenges for any hostel is key management, either because
residents forget to return their keys on leaving or because keys are lost
or mislaid. With four or fi ve keys requiring replacement each week the
cost is signifi cant both in terms of locksmith charges and management
time. In contrast, any Net2 fob may be instantly barred from the system,
preventing their use on any of the doors.
Andrew said, ‘It is much easier, quicker and cheaper to enrol and issue a
fob than it is to replace a key as it can be undertaken conveniently from
a desk and doesn’t require the need for a maintenance person to go and
get a key cut. ‘
‘This has led us to trial the system on fourteen individual rooms on
the third fl oor. This is our incentive fl oor in the hostel where rooms are
allocated as a reward for an individual’s progress towards employment. A
room on the third fl oor means the residents have a fridge, an extra meal
and a better view from the window. It also gives the residents a ‘front
door’ as the corridor on that fl oor
is controlled by the Net2 system.
Residents appreciate the status
that this represents.’
In October 2008, the hostel
updated their Net2 system and
the YMCA staff can now enjoy the
benefi ts of using Card designer to
create all their ID cards. The YMCA
has also integrated their CCTV
systems with Net2, as planned
back in 2006. This has been very
eff ective as an additional security
measure, but also acts to ensure
the protection and comfort of
the YMCA’s service users.

From the Front
January 2009
It’s been very interesting reading the papers over
the last few months. It seems that the compass of
opinion has lost its magnetism, and the needle is
going haywire. What used to be certain is now
unknown. The world is in the middle of a fi nancial
storm, and nobody has any idea of how bad it
might get. Whilst, on the face of it, there is plenty
to worry and be serious about, I have some
positive things to say about the current situation.
It may just be that the silly season is over. It may
be that in future, savers will achieve more kudos
than debtors. Perhaps a software writer will be
seen as more creative than will be a fashion
designer who in the old days earned a living
making people look like a butternut squash
wrapped in a tarpaulin. Maybe making things will
be seen as high status work, and marketing a
house will be for the drones. Perhaps a trader in
derivatives will be paid less than a cleaner, but
will pay more tax. Politicians are already thinking
twice about imposing more employment
legislation on an overloaded commercial sector -
maybe some of the recent legislative
overindulgence will be reversed.
And then there have been the legions of
Entrepreneurs. I have never met an Entrepreneur,
although I have seen people on TV quiz shows
being introduced as such. Glossy magazines

Surrey home give their respective job descriptions
as Merchant Banker (of course!) and Entrepreneur.
I worry about our Pet. What is it that she actually
does? Is she wakeful at nights musing over the
fi ner points of sales order processing? Is she
wondering how the in-house relational database
can be used to best eff ect? What about her
distributor network? Perhaps she is worried by all
of these things, but I doubt it, because if she was,
she would call herself something a bit more
practical. George W Bush was wrongly attributed
with the quote “The trouble with the French is
that they have no word for Entrepreneur”. It’s a
shame he didn’t actually say that, and it’s a shame
that they do. I predict that there will be fewer
Entrepreneurs over the next ten years and more
business women and men.
Outsourcing has been a burgeoning trend in
recent times. It sounds like a sensible idea - let
the experts do what they are good at, leaving
you free to do the important things. The fashion
has meant that if you have been doing your own
manufacturing, accounting, IT or HR, you may
have had some embarrassing chats with peers as
a result. I have caused a few snobbish eyebrows
to arch by saying that we run our own IT
infrastructure down to our own web servers - as
if I had announced that I was taking in washing.
The biggest single step we have ever taken in
terms of size and cost has been our recent
purchase of a factory unit in Eastbourne and we
have spent more money equipping it with plant
for automated assembly of circuit boards. We
have learnt how to run this ourselves, and we are
now able to manufacture a Net2 control unit
from scratch to being packed in our own factory
in the UK.
Your tech support is in my opinion the best in the business, and all security
equipment manufacturers should aspire to the levels of quality attained, and
maintained by Paxton.

Are we mad? Well, perhaps, but I do fear for those
companies who are outsourced up to the hilt.
Unfortunately, if a vital sub-contractor
experiences problems during a recession, they
may suddenly be unable to continue to provide
that service. When your fi le server packs up, and
you don’t know how to fi x it, or where to fi nd the
backup or how to restore it, you’re in deep
trouble. If your sub-contractor is in another
country, and you pay them in dollars, you will face
a huge increase in costs for that service imposed
overnight. Suddenly, the outsourcing dream
doesn’t seem to be quite so “win-win” after all.
To be contrary though, I have just been to a local
council parking offi ce which, in the middle of my
musings, has provided me with absolute proof
that DIY doesn’t always work when it comes to
providing a service. I was next in the queue, but
one of the two cashiers on duty having dealt with
the preceding ‘customer’ artfully pushed the
Position Closed sign to form a hermetic seal
against the grubby little slot through which
parking vouchers are exchanged for large
amounts of money. Her head remained perfectly
hidden behind her large computer screen,
avoiding the need for all eye contact. A gnarled
hand reached for the pint sized tea mug at the
edge of her side of the counter. The mug had
printed on it “You don’t have to be mad to work
here, but it helps”. There then followed an expert
scuttle as my shirking assistant disappeared from
view without a backward glance. “Outsourcing,” I
thought, “it’s the only answer.”
