Alarm Lock’s |
Alarm Lock’s keypad-less standalone access control lock, the Trilogy PL3000, is a big hit on the Block Island ferries. The Block Island Ferry/ Interstate Navigation Company has operated year-round ferry service to Block Island for more than 75 years. After numerous attempts to increase security measures with competitive locks that failed in less than a year, former Block Island Police Chief William McCombe, who is currently director of security for Interstate Navigation, has found exactly what he was seeking.
McCombe has been using Trilogy (keypad-less) PL3000 for more than two years now on the ferries, which can carry 1,200 passengers and 40 cars. The locks have been working flawlessly since installation, through heavy coatings of ice during wintery conditions and despite being sprayed by the large saltwater waves from the ocean. McCombe is extremely pleased that he used Trilogy PL3000 as part of his homeland security-funded security measures.
Trilogy PL3000 is water-sealed for use inside and out, with an operational temperature range of +151°F to -31°F; enabling its exceptional weather-proof performance. It is a field-proven, rugged, keypad-less lock with ultra-vandal-proof proximity reader built-in.
Users are individually programmed to gain access, only with HID prox cards, prox keyfobs or prox tags, for the highest level of vandal-resistance and dependability available.
