The Access Guardian

Here’s how The Access Guardian makes a difference:

Ensuring Legal Compliance
Regulatory Mandate: Safety regulations require that all confined space entries be documented with details such as the date, time, names of personnel, and other safety-critical information. The Access Guardian automates this process, ensuring your organisation adheres to these legal requirements without the hassle of manual record-keeping.

Audit-Ready Records: With built-in digital logging and secure storage, every entry is automatically recorded and can be easily retrieved during inspections or audits, providing peace of mind that your compliance is always up-to-date.

Integrated Gas Checks: Monitor atmosphere readings and trigger alarms when necessary.
NFC Access Control: Tap in and out to create an indisputable audit trail.
Automated Alerts & Rescue Plans: In-app notifications for exceeded exposure times or abnormal readings on screen Emergency Mode for Rescue Assistance.

NFC Integration: Enhancing Entry Control
NFC technology ensures that only authorised personnel can enter confined spaces. By tapping an NFC-enabled tag, wristband, location pin or badge, workers instantly log their entry and exit, creating an automated, time-stamped record that supports compliance. The system also enables real-time tracking of personnel within confined spaces, ensuring accountability and improving safety. In the event of an emergency, NFC provides a fast exit, with accurate record of who is inside, aiding in response efforts.
