Access
the Brew House with SALTO
The
Brew House Hotel in Royal Tunbridge Wells has chosen SALTO Systems for
its secure access control requirements. The hotel awarded the installation
contract to approved SALTO business partner; Tonbridge based Styletech
Architectural Hardware.
A brand new small boutique hotel owned by entrepreneurs Kevin Spencer
and Nick Drees, The Brew House is a totally refurbished and re-developed
18th Century building that has been restored to its former greatness.
Set in the peaceful area of Warwick Park, adjacent to the historic colonnaded
walkway of the Pantiles, the property offers 10 individually designed
contemporary bedrooms all boasting luxurious features and state-of-the-art
communications facilities. The hotel also offers fine dining and a relaxing
bar area with mood lighting and chic furnishings while numerous quirky
local boutiques, restaurants and bars are all within a few minutes walk.
‘We are delighted to have won this prestigious contract using SALTO
products which are both a cost effective and elegant solution’ says
Paul Woodcock of Styletech Architectural Hardware.
‘Working in consultation with the hotel owners, a key element of
their brief was to provide a total 'one-stop-shop' solution. This involved
not only designing a clean, modern state-of-the-art access control solution
for the comfort and convenience of the guests, but also supplying a complete
architectural ironmongery package for the refurbishment of the building.’
To achieve this Styletech installed the XS4 electronic smart lock in a
brushed stainless steel finish into all the bedrooms as well as back of
house doors and service rooms. And, to control employee access, an online
wall reader unit utilising the power of the SALTO Virtual Network (SVN)
is linked in to the handle sets spreading the access control system further
into the building whilst still allowing for on-line access provision where
needed.
SVN allows the Brew House Hotel to read, receive and write information
to and from its smart staff ID cards and revolutionises the traditional
problems associated with 'key' control by eliminating the need to replace
locks if security is breached due to the loss or theft of a staff ID card.
And, in addition, SVN's built-in audit trail facility can also be used
as a management tool if required to check staff times when arriving at
and leaving work.
Owning partner, Nick Drees, says; ‘We're pleased with the finished
installation and with the performance of our new SALTO access control
system. It delivers everything we've asked of it and we also like the
fact that it's 'sate-of-the-art' and neatly complements the contemporary
styling of our hotel.’
