Sports centres are complex ecosystems: elite athletes and amateurs, coaches, internal staff and external maintenance companies coexist alongside a constant flow of members and the general public. This extremely high turnover of people and vehicles, often concentrated in a few hours, makes sports venues critical infrastructures whose protection can no longer be based on partial solutions; it requires professional platforms capable of managing access, capacity and emergencies in a unified manner and in real time.
DORLET: experience and specific solutions for sports centres
In this context, DORLET has developed specific solutions to respond to the main challenges faced by these facilities. The company not only enables the safe and efficient management of large and variable numbers of users, but also allows permissions to be assigned according to profile (athletes, coaches, administrators, fans, etc.), ensuring that only the right people have access to the most sensitive areas (playing fields, swimming pools, gyms, changing rooms, offices, etc.).
Thanks to integration with the ticket sales platform, both for individual access and for season tickets and groups, fans obtain a temporary virtual credential that grants them access to pre-established areas (stands, VIP rooms, etc.). This measure is extremely useful for controlling public access, but also for compiling a list of those present, enabling a quick and coordinated evacuation in the event of an emergency, such as a fire.
These security features are combined with others aimed at streamlining the activities of athletes or workers, such as space reservations. With this integration, it is possible to block certain areas (gym, tennis courts, paddle tennis courts, football pitches, basketball courts, meeting rooms, etc.) on demand and avoid duplication. To prevent the space from being used by more people than allowed, the system only allows entry to users who have made the reservation.
DASSnet: the key player that makes everything work properly
DASSnet, DORLET's comprehensive management software, plays an essential role in coordinating all aspects of security and efficiency. This tool allows you to centralise all the signals produced by the various systems installed in the sports centre, from access readers to intrusion or fire alarms, including camera recordings (VMS) and intercom.
The advantage is clear: by controlling all elements from a single software, you get an overview of what is happening in the sports centre, allowing you to identify risks before they become a real threat and coordinate a rapid and effective response to mitigate that danger; because in security, as in sport, anticipation is the best defence.
Security can never be compromised
Security managers at sports centres face a major challenge: they must select a robust and resilient security system that allows sporting events to take place without disruption. This is only possible by selecting top-of-the-range solutions and products, certified according to the most demanding standards, such as Grade 4 in Intrusion and Access, the National Security Scheme (ENS) or the new NIS2. The ultimate goal is to become a reliable venue for flagship events (national and international competitions) and for both spectators and players to enjoy what unites them: a passion for sport.
