SAFE AND SECURE at Cambridge Sports Centre
Ojmar’s unique locking systems meet the varying needs of users of the new sports centre while also offering easy management and maintenance for staff
T
he new Cambridge Sports Centre provides a world-class facility for recreation, training and competi- tion. Completed last summer, the
development includes a sports hall, gym and multi-purpose sports area. The facilities cater for students, sports
teams and the community, placing unique demands on the centre’s locker facilities. The university required a key- less locking system for its team changing rooms. Ojmar’s OCS Touch system proved the ideal solution for the lockers supplied by Prospec. Simple to use, the locks require no keys or cards to oper- ate. Users simply enter a four-digit code of their choosing to activate and deacti- vate the lock. The system is robust to withstand the
heavy usage of sports teams and is also IP55 certified – the highest level of wa- ter resistance available – making it ideal for humid environments like changing areas and washrooms. In the member changing areas for
staff, students and the public, the lock- ing solution needed to accommodate the centre’s RFID card, which is also used for membership, access control and cashless payments. Here, Ojmar installed its OTS RFID system. A simple one-click operation allows users to activate and deactivate the lock by pressing their card on top. Like the OCS Touch, the sys- tem is highly durable and IP55 certified. As an accessible facility, it’s essential

changing rooms, are preset to open via an automatic opening facility to prevent people from using the lockers as person- al storage space. Staff then collect the contents of the lockers for safekeeping, ensuring they remain free for the next day’s users. Easy management and maintenance
is essential for a busy facility, and the OCS Touch and OTS RFID come togeth- er in one software package, allowing both solutions to be managed from one standalone system. A master key system also allows the
management to open and close lockers in the event of lost cards or forgotten codes without losing the original code entered by the user. The system also has an events log, which records the last 30
uses of the locker in real-time to safe- guard users and staff from accusations of theft. The set-up of the two systems, as well
as any changes and maintenance, are performed without needing to open the locks or connect to any devices. Master codes can also be altered and cards de- leted by management in just seconds. Both systems are battery-operated,
standalone and can be overridden by master keys, providing protection in the event of power cuts or data outage. A hand-held, standalone programmer also allows staff to read key cards and even make new ones during power cuts. Both systems come with a two-year guarantee.
