Authorized Access

Vehicles that pass all checklist inspections receive automatic authorization. Gates open automatically, and entry is logged with timestamp and inspector details.

Access Denied

Equipment with failed inspections or detected technical problems is automatically denied access. Front desk is notified with specific failure reasons and required actions.

Pending Reinspection

Vehicles flagged for reinspection show pending status with assigned responsible person, due date, and specific items requiring verification before access is granted.

Seamless App Integration

The system automatically syncs with the Touchway Checklist mobile app. As soon as an inspection is completed on iOS or Android, the equipment access status is updated in real-time across all entry points. No manual input required from front desk personnel.

Wide Screen TV Control System

Large TV displays at entry points provide front desk personnel with complete visibility of vehicle status, making access control operations faster, easier, and safer

Large Display Interface

Wide screen TVs (42" to 65") mounted at entry gates display vehicle information in large, easy-to-read format. Front desk operators can see status from a distance without squinting at small monitors.

Visual Status Indicators

Color-coded displays with green (authorized), red (denied), and yellow (pending) status make instant visual identification possible. Large icons and clear typography prevent errors.

Detailed Vehicle Information

Display shows equipment ID, license plate, vehicle type, last inspection date, inspector name, and specific issues detected. All information needed for quick decision-making.

Real-time Updates

As vehicles approach gates, their information automatically appears on screen. Status updates happen instantly as inspections are completed, ensuring front desk always has current information.
