More content customers
Your customer will benefit too, as they will have complete control and transparency around the security of their individual lock up too, and not have a slicker experience at your facility. You can choose to either let them administer access to people to their site or your company can be in complete control.

Integrate with your existing security system
Electronic security of storage facilities is notoriously difficult due to the 24/7 nature of the business
Knowio has been designed to integrate with the majority of monitored alarm and CCTV systems and therefore solves this issue.

We needed a scalable, easy to manage access solution for our car parks and stock yards, where the authorised visitor list changes regularly. Knowio is a Godsend from an efficiency perspective.

An open gate is an open invite to criminals. Now we have real-time visibility on lots of critical gates that we previously could only know were closed by doing costly physical checks.

Mick Power

End user behaviour has shifted dramatically since I migrated to Knowio. All users are aware of the complete traceability. Incidents of the gate being left open has now fallen to practically zero.
