APPLICATION WiFi door entry system at London gated community Comelit has ensured future residents at Kebbell Homes’ new Aubury Place development can experience smart door entry with the installation of its latest Mini Handsfree monitors. Aubury Place is a new gated community of nine four, five and six bedroom homes in Chiswick, London. Comelit’s Specification team, together with chosen installers Wheeler Electrical, was involved with Kebbell from the initial design process, through the works programme to project completion. The new system enables residents to respond to door entry requests from any compatible mobile and benefit from video memory, to record missed calls. Each home at Aubury Place has been fitted Guest experience at Dubai hotels are improved Guests at some of Dubai’s newest hotels will enjoy more efficient and memorable service thanks to eFusion technology from Maxxess. The eFusion solution is being used for streamlining of security and safety – tying together front-of-house and back-of-house operations - at a number of hotel developments. The result will be a smoother check-in experience for guests, with minimal queuing, no cumbersome paperwork, and more attentive service. By integrating front and back of house operations at busy hotels, eFusion reduces problems with inefficiency and human error and improves situational awareness and control capability for management teams. Among the latest five-star destinations to adopt eFusion, the Taj Exotica Resort & Spa on Palm Jumeirah comprises seventeen floors with 200-plus rooms and suites, along with recreational and dining facilities. The Taj Jumeirah Lake Towers, another development by the Indian Hotels Company due to open this year, will also benefit from Maxxess integration technology. It provides an umbrella management system and removes the need for operators to continually switch between systems.

At the Taj Exotica, eFusion will integrate the front of house system from Assa Abloy the Honeywell Simplex fire system controls; the Honeywell Building Management System connected via a Bacnet gateway; and a combination of 403 Hanwa Wisenet IP internal and external cameras, installed by ISS CCTV and operated through SecureOS video management software (VMS). The Assa Abloy VingCard access control system, securing almost 300 doors, will be managed from the eFusion platform alongside other key services due to be added, including the OTIS elevator controls. eFusion will allow the hotel’s management to define events of interest – such a particular door being unlocked, or alarms being set or unset – and provide transactional information to improve security for guests, and accountability. The solution also enables centralised management of room safes, mini-bars and cupboards, and the control of all alarm transactions. Cameras linked to door access will allow video pop-up to be triggered by pre-defined events, and operators will have complete PTZ control, playback and video functionality. 46 www.psimagazine.co.uk
