AMAG Technology, Entrance Controls Partner To Secure Portland International Airport

AMAG Technology and Entrance Controls will partner to provide a security management solution for Portland International Airport’s (PDX) new parking structure and office building. Port of Portland will install a Symmetry Homeland Security Edition System in the new structure which will consist of seven stories of parking space with an additional three top stories of Port office space. The new parking structure will triple PDX’s long-term parking capacity.

Approximately 70 cards readers will be installed throughout the complex including on the parking structure entrance gates.

“Entrance Controls introduced us to the Symmetry Security Management solution 20 years ago, and the scalable security system is still providing security for us today,” said John M. Dean, senior manager of aviation security at Portland International Airport. “The security solution along with the support we receive from Entrance Controls will provide a solution that will continue to grow with us over the years.”

“The top three floors of the new parking garage will house the new Port office area and be starting the Port into the Symmetry Homeland Security software and hardware. We are part of a construction team that has done many successful additions to the airport and we are looking forward to this project,” said Craig Ehrich, PDX project engineer for Entrance Controls. “The Port has been and will continue to be a very important customer with demanding and sometimes challenging security needs.”

The expansion project is expected to be finished in the spring.

    Snap One has announced its popular Luma x20 family of surveillance products now offers even greater security and privacy for home and business owners across the globe by giving them full control over integrators’ system access to view live and recorded video. According to Snap One Product Manager Derek Webb, the new “customer handoff” feature provides enhanced user control after initial installation, allowing the owners to have total privacy while also making it easy to reinstate integrator access when maintenance or assistance is required. This new feature is now available to all Luma x20 users globally. “The Luma x20 family of surveillance solutions provides excellent image and audio capture, and with the new customer handoff feature, it now offers absolute privacy for camera feeds and recordings,” Webb said. “With notifications and integrator access controlled through the powerful OvrC remote system management platform, it’s easy for integrators to give their clients full control of their footage and then to get temporary access from the client for any troubleshooting needs.”
