    Site Access Control FAQs

    Why integrate HammerTech and Irongate for site access control?

     

    Together, they unify worker onboarding, facial recognition access, and time tracking. Workers inducted in HammerTech are automatically approved for site access without duplicate systems.

    Can Irongate access control be purchased directly through HammerTech?

     

    Yes. Irongate Solutions can be purchased directly via HammerTech in the UK, including full support and integration services.

    Does Irongate's facial recognition work with construction PPE?

     

    Yes. The system recognises workers in hard hats and standard PPE. If a facial scan fails due to glare or sunglasses, workers can use a QR code, RFID, or PIN as a backup.

    Is the HammerTech and Irongate integration GDPR compliant?

     

    Yes. Biometric data is encrypted, securely stored, and used strictly for access control. It is never shared with HammerTech or outside parties.

    How does Irongate track accurate worker hours for UKI sites?

     

    Turnstile time-in and time-out data syncs directly to HammerTech, ensuring precise labour hour tracking and preventing discrepancies.

    What makes Irongate more robust than generic access control?

     

    Irongate is built specifically for construction to endure harsh site conditions, preventing breakdowns and bottlenecks at busy entry points.

    Can this solution scale to small or large construction projects?

     

    Yes. Whether managing a single entry gate or a multi-phase site with thousands of workers, the access control solution scales easily.

    Can Irongate integrate with existing site turnstiles?

     

    Yes. Irongate can retrofit onto most existing turnstile setups and integrate with widely used site cameras.
