JB: This year at IFSEC our stand will not only showcase a range of our products including:
But we will be launching our “Firstlane” double swing door security turnstile to the UK marketplace. FirstLane offers “unbeatable value for money whilst ensuring safety and quality have not been compromised.”
The Firstlane series comprises two models: the FirstLane 960, which offers a compact footprint, and FirstLane 970, which accommodates a wider passage to meet the needs of people with reduced mobility. The security turnstile suits all types of architecture.
Visitors to the show will not only see Firstlane firsthand but will also have the opportunity to see it working throughout the three days of the show.
IFSEC has always been to us a place to exhibit our products to a large marketplace be that International or UK based and we are always looking to gauge the interest of individuals or organisations with buying power and the need for increasing the security within their organisations.
Our main aim is to obtain contacts that we would not otherwise have met if we did not attend the show with our ultimate goal to build up lasting relationships.
