Volume traffic, mixed users. One elegant access experience.
Trusted by
Vehicle access control for a corporate campus, a business park or an asset storage site has to carry high volumes of regular users at predictable peaks, an unpredictable visitor flow through the day and contractors and deliveries on top of that, and still feel modern, secure and friction-free. Nedap uPASS Go identifies staff and members on a single windscreen tag, Transit Ultimate covers the higher-volume and VIP lanes from up to 15 metres, and ANPR Lumo handles visitors and contractors by number plate.
We distribute and support all three as Nedap's certified UK partner, and work with your installer from specification to commissioning.
Corporate campuses, business parks and asset storage sites face a deceptively complex vehicle access challenge: high volumes of employee or member traffic concentrated around predictable peaks, an unpredictable visitor flow throughout the day, contractors and deliveries on top of that, and an expectation that the whole experience feels modern, secure and friction-free.
A card-tap at the barrier holds the morning queue, an app is the wrong thing to fumble with on a winter morning, and a visitor who has to stop at a barrier they didn't expect has had a poor first impression before they have parked.
The access control platform should be the customer's choice, with no proprietary front-end software and no licensing model that escalates with the size of the site.
The challenge
Hundreds of staff or members arrive within the same half hour, and a card-tap or an app at the barrier holds the queue.
The answer
uPASS Go reads a battery-free UHF tag from up to 10 metres: no card-tap, no app to fumble with on a winter morning. It is the right choice where read range needs are moderate and cost matters.
The challenge
An executive car park, a VIP entrance or a high-volume lane needs the barrier open before the vehicle has slowed.
The answer
Transit Ultimate reads from up to 15 metres at up to 200 km/h, so the busiest and the most sensitive lanes open without a pause, on the same system as the rest of the site.
The challenge
A visitor or contractor who was pre-registered still arrives at a closed barrier with nothing to present.
The answer
ANPR Lumo reads the plate from 2 to 10 metres and integrates with visitor management platforms, so a pre-registered visitor never has to stop.
The challenge
A proprietary front end, a licence that escalates with every bay, and lock-in to one vendor's roadmap.
The answer
Every credential ties back to a single open-architecture access control platform, the one already on site or Norpass3, which is licence-free.
A campus entrance sees three kinds of vehicle: the regular users who come every day, the lanes that need more range or speed, and visitors and contractors with no tag. Each is identified in the way that suits it, and all three readers report to the same platform.
Regular users carry a single passive UHF tag in the windscreen, and uPASS Go reads it from up to 10 metres as they arrive: no card-tap and no app. At the Caravan and Motorhome Club's two storage sites, 600 vehicles carry tamperproof uPASS Go windscreen tags.
Higher-volume or higher-speed lanes, including VIP and executive parking, read from up to 15 metres.
Visitors and contractors are identified by number plate, and the camera integrates with visitor management platforms so a pre-registered visitor never has to stop.
uPASS Go reads the battery-free windscreen tag from up to 10 metres as the car arrives.
The access control platform checks it against staff, members and registered vehicles.
No card-tap, no app, no stopping.
Vehicle and time, so the site knows who is in and when they left.
The main entrance is usually where a project starts. The same tag identifies the vehicle at the other points a campus or storage site controls.
A reader at each car park entrance gives the right people the right car park, on the same windscreen tag.
Transit Ultimate opens the executive lane from up to 15 metres, so nobody waits at the barrier.
At a caravan or motorhome storage site the tag is matched to the owner's card, so a vehicle cannot leave without the site knowing, as at the Caravan and Motorhome Club.
Deliveries and contractors are identified by number plate with ANPR Lumo.
Corporate Campuses & Asset Storage is one of 11 applications in Vehicle Access, Solved, the Nedap vehicle identification catalogue we publish for the UK and Ireland. Each page shows which reader does the main job, where a second reader picks up untagged or visitor vehicles, and a site where it is in use.

Case study
The club had no automated way to know which vehicles were on site across its two storage facilities, so staff physically checked more than 400 bays, a slow and error-prone process that left members without the reassurance that their caravans were secure.
Nortech deployed uPASS Go readers at each site entrance alongside Paxton Net2, with a tamperproof UHF windscreen tag on every vehicle matched to the owner's proximity card. Every movement is logged automatically, and an unauthorised movement raises an alert.
‘The time saved through automated event logs is huge.’

None of the readers needs its own software. uPASS Go hands the tag number to the access control platform as a standard reader over Wiegand or magstripe, Transit Ultimate over Wiegand or RS232 as standard with RS422, RS485, TCP/IP and Profibus DP interface boards, and ANPR Lumo over Wiegand, RS485 or Ethernet, with a REST interface for other software.
Every credential ties back to a single open-architecture access control platform of the customer's choosing. There is no proprietary front-end software, no licensing model that escalates with site size and no lock-in to a single vendor's roadmap. Where a site has no platform, Norpass3, our licence-free access control software, takes all three readers.
ANPR Lumo integrates with visitor management platforms so pre-registered visitors flow through, and our engineers work through the integration with you or your installer before the hardware is specified.

Vehicle access control for a corporate campus or business park identifies each vehicle arriving at the entrance or a car park and decides whether the barrier should open. Staff and members are usually identified by a long-range RFID tag in the windscreen, visitors and contractors by number plate, and every movement is logged.
No. uPASS Go reads a passive UHF tag in the windscreen from up to 10 metres, so the barrier opens as the car arrives. There is no card-tap and no app to fumble with on a winter morning, and the tag has no battery to replace.
On higher-volume or higher-speed lanes, including VIP and executive parking. It reads from up to 15 metres at up to 200 km/h, so the barrier is open before the vehicle has slowed. uPASS Go is the right choice where read range needs are moderate and cost matters, and the two can share one site.
By number plate. ANPR Lumo reads the plate from 2 to 10 metres and integrates with visitor management platforms, so a pre-registered visitor never has to stop at a barrier they didn't expect. A vehicle that isn't expected stays at the barrier and is dealt with by reception in the usual way.
Yes. Each read is logged with the vehicle and time, so the site knows who is in and when they left. At the Caravan and Motorhome Club's two storage sites, 600 vehicles carry tamperproof uPASS Go windscreen tags matched to the owner's card, and an unauthorised movement raises an alert.
No. Every credential ties back to a single open-architecture access control platform of your choosing. There is no proprietary front-end software, no licensing model that escalates with site size and no lock-in to a single vendor's roadmap. If the site has no platform, Norpass3 is licence-free.
It depends on the number of entrances and car parks, how many vehicles need tags, whether visitors are read by ANPR, and the barrier work your installer carries out. Our ANPR system cost guide covers typical camera and installation costs, or ask us for a quote for your site.
