ASSA ABLOY Traka secures theme park with key management solution

Traka provided an automated and secure electronic solution for complex key management at the world’s largest theme park in the USA.

Customer 

The world’s largest theme park employs 50,000 people at its Resort in the USA, which is the most visited attraction in the world encompassing numerous theme parks, golf courses and dining, accommodation, shopping and entertainment complexes.

Challenge

Most employees access hospitality areas, hotel rooms, corporate facilities, maintenance vehicles and equipment with mechanical keys or key cards. The challenge for Traka was to provide an automated electronic process for key management with increased security, accountability and efficiency, managed from a centralized database.

Solution

Traka provided a network of 180 electronic key cabinets and intelligent locker systems located resort-wide to control access to and monitor 9,000 keys, as well as managing pooled vehicles and phones. The Traka administration software is hosted on a centralized server and system administrators have “regionalized” access to administer and run reports on keys and equipment. 

Employees access Traka key cabinets with their existing employee badge and are only allowed to release the keys they are authorized to. If keys are not returned on time, software alarms notify the system administrators. As an extension to the theme park the customer has now implemented Traka key control in each of its four cruise vessels as well and at other properties including sites in Hawaii. ASSA ABLOY has also installed HID Global iCLASS access control cards, readers and ID card printers.
