Balancing Security and Compliance with Smoking Law
The need for secure shutters arose not only to safeguard the club’s valuable poker machines but also to comply with NSW smoking legislation. NSW laws require that designated smoking areas in licensed premises be open to the outdoors to allow smoke to dissipate efficiently.
Precision-Engineered, Custom Solutions
ATDC designed, engineered, and custom-made each shutter specifically to fit the designated apertures within the club’s gaming rooms. Each security shutter is top-hung from strong RHS steel structural members, which were also designed, supplied, and installed by ATDC. The shutters were powder-coated in a sleek black satin finish to complement the club’s existing décor.
Ventilation, Visibility, and Security Combined
These expandable security shutters offer full ventilation, thanks to their open-grille design with mesh infills. This ensures compliance with smoking laws while maintaining a secure barrier for the gaming machines. When not in use, the shutters conveniently fold away, occupying only 15% of their fully expanded width, maximising space efficiency. Fully framed, lockable, and secure, they provide a robust solution for protecting assets without compromising on airflow or aesthetics.
National and International Availability
ATDC’s extendable gates are available in major Australian cities, including Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, and Canberra, as well as in regional towns like Newcastle, Geelong, Darwin, Townsville, Hobart, the Sunshine Coast, and the Gold Coast. They are also exported throughout Southeast Asia, the Asia Pacific, the UAE, and the Pacific Islands.
