Norpass3 System - Even greater flexibility

The latest enhancements to Norpass3, Nortech’s PC-based access control system makes it even more versatile and cost effective across a wide range of installation sizes. The introduction of a single door controller offers greater flexibility for installers to provide the most appropriate and efficient solutions to their customers.

Nortech’s door controller range now arms our installers with the competitive edge on virtually all small to medium access control scenarios.  The single door controller fits effortlessly into the system due to the Norpass3 management software’s intelligent way of recognising which type of controller has been fitted and configuring it appropriately.  This keeps the installation nice and simple.

Norpass3 software is a feature-rich and intuitive management system that can be quickly and easily installed on any modern Windows-based PC including Windows 7. We pride ourselves on providing new and useful features while continually improving the user experience, and look forward to making an exciting announcement at this year’s IFSEC. You will be amazed to see how our system can be set up with unparalleled speed and simplicity.

Newport County - Counting on Success

Promotion chasing Newport County were in need of a way of monitoring attendance figures within Newport Stadium, their home ground, to meet strict football league safety regulations.

Working closely with a local installer Nortech implemented its stadium count management system, VenueMaster. By installing new, and adapting existing turnstiles to give an output signal each time a spectator enters the stadium, Nortech’s counting modules are able to monitor the number of spectators entering each gate. These details are collected by VenueMaster software running on a standard PC in the clubs control room allowing  Newport County staff to easily monitor the stadiums attendance. 

On match day’s VenueMaster keeps track of the number of spectators entering via each turnstile and calculates the stadium total. VenueMaster is also able to calculate the number of spectators in particular areas to allow detailed attendance analysis. Newport are using this information to research where refreshment stands are best placed and where congestion is likely to occur.

Nortech’s VenueMaster system has been installed at various arenas, ranging from a 30,000 seat Premiership football stadium to multi-purpose venues such as Newport Stadium.
