A Growing Challenge: Balancing Growth with Security 
Raglan Holiday Park, a popular destination for travelers, experienced a surge in guests. This growth brought a pleasant challenge: ensuring a smooth arrival experience for all visitors while maintaining park security. Their existing access card system proved inadequate, leading to issues such as unauthorized access and time-consuming gate management. 

The Challenge: Security Gaps and Inefficient Processes 
Raglan Holiday Park’s previous access card system was antiquated and required an upgrade, allowing unauthorized vehicles onto the property. This resulted in unpaid guests using park facilities and created a security concern. Additionally, the traditional access cards created bottlenecks at the gates, causing frustration for arriving guests, especially during peak seasons. Staff spent a significant amount of time resolving access issues instead of focusing on guest services. 

The Solution: From Cards to Cameras 
To address these challenges, Raglan Holiday Park partnered with Aero NZ to implement a comprehensive access control system. This innovative solution leverages the power of Adaptive Recognition’s Einar ANPR camera for access control and parking at its core, seamlessly integrated with Raglan’s existing booking platform. 

The Benefits: A More Secure and Efficient Holiday Park 
The new access control system, developed by Aero NZ and featuring Adaptive Recognition’s Einar ANPR/ALPR cameras at its core, has transformed Raglan Holiday Park’s approach to security and guest experience. Einar’s accurate license plate recognition technology acts as a powerful deterrent against unauthorized access, significantly reducing the number of unpaid guests and ensuring park security. This, coupled with the system’s seamless integration with Raglan’s booking platform Newbook, has streamlined operations and freed up staff time. Automatic LPR entry eliminates queuing frustrations for guests, allowing them to begin their park experience faster. Additionally, the system offers flexibility for diverse vehicle types and convenient automatic access for authorized users. 

Benefits at a Glance: 

  • Enhanced Security: Einar’s ANPR technology accurately identifies authorized vehicles, significantly reducing unauthorized access. 
  • Improved Efficiency: Automatic ANPR entry significantly reduces queue times, allowing guests a faster and more convenient arrival experience. 
  • Streamlined Operations: The Aero NZ system integrates seamlessly with Raglan’s Newbook booking platform, allowing for effortless pin and license plate administration through a centralized platform. This eliminates manual check-ins, freeing up staff time for other tasks. 
  • Flexibility: The system caters to various vehicle types. PIN pad controllers, another component of the Aero NZ system, ensure smooth access for motorbikes and vehicles with obscured plates. 
  • Convenience for Authorized Users: Annual site holders and trade vehicles enjoy automatic access, saving them time and hassle. 
  • Enhanced Management: The ANPR system facilitates easy access history searches through a user-friendly dashboard within the Aero NZ system, aiding in resolving queries. 

Results: 
The implementation of the Aero NZ access control system featuring the Einar ANPR cameras has transformed Raglan Holiday Park’s access control operations: 

  • Reduced Unauthorized Access: Staff reported a significant decrease in unauthorized vehicles entering the park. 
  • Improved Staff Efficiency: Freed from gate management tasks, staff can focus on providing excellent customer service. 
  • Enhanced Guest Experience: Faster entry and a streamlined arrival process contribute to a more positive guest experience. 
  • Increased Operational Efficiency: The Aero NZ system’s seamless integration with existing systems allows for effortless administration. 

Conclusion: 
Raglan Holiday Park’s investment in the Aero NZ access control system featuring Adaptive Recognition’s Einar ANPR/ALPR access management and parking cameras demonstrates the transformative power of innovative security solutions. The system has enhanced security, improved guest experience, and streamlined park operations, making Raglan a more efficient and welcoming destination.
