How Mobile Security Gates Support Social Distancing Due to Coronavirus

Using mobile security gates and other physical security tools to enforce social distancing guidelines due to corona-virus

Social Distancing due to the Corona-virus? Here’s How Mobile Security Gates Can Help

As America goes back to work following the severe restrictions that have been put in place due to the coronavirus, a lot of people remain worried about how they will stay safe. Even when stores, arenas, shopping malls, casino’s and other such properties open again, there will still be the need to be cautious and practice social distancing. In many cases, this will mean restricting the number of people who enter a venue and making sure people do not congregate too closely with one another.

Mobile security gates can provide many benefits that will help people work and businesses function safely as corona-virus restrictions are gradually lifted.

Protecting Employees with Mobile Security Gates

Employees can increase protection using mobile security gates, wall mounted, fixture mounted, as well as other physical security tools.  Those working at kiosks, behind food and beverage counters, and other similar situations can benefit from having physical security in place. These tools provide safety and peace of mind in all areas, especially those where there is not much available to keep customers a safe distance away.

Gates restrict customers from standing too closely to employees, which improves safety and allows businesses to reopen while still complying with health guidelines. These gates can easily be moved or adjusted as needed, so they can offer safety and support for employees in nearly any business or situation.

Restricting Access with Mobile Security Gates

As retailers and other businesses reopen, there will still be a need to keep everyone safe by restricting the number of people allowed inside a property. Physical security gates can aid this process.

Mobile security gates can easily be set up at just about any location to restrict access and keep people safe. Since the gates can be locked into place with ease and moved around as necessary, they be used at nearly any business and can easily adapt to changing conditions.

For example, mobile security gates can help restrict the number of people allowed into a store, prevent access to parts of a shopping mall that may not yet be open, control crowds at airports and arenas, and function in many other ways to keep people safe.

The Benefits of Physical Security

Physical security gates have many benefits over other methods of restricting access and enforcing social distancing. While signage, floor markers, etc. can encourage people to follow regulations, these methods do not actually stop people from entering an area, gathering in a group, or standing too closely.

Security guards can be used to restrict access and enforce social distancing, but hiring guards is costly, especially since most properties will require several guards. Staff members can inform the public of regulations and try to get them to comply, but this may not be effective, and it requires potentially putting people in harm’s way by requiring face-to-face interaction.

Unlike using staff members or guards, people do not need to be involved in the process when you use mobile security gates. This means you are not potentially subjecting people to standing in close quarters with members of the public. The result is a safer and more effective way to enforce social distancing.
