Hockey arenas are state-of-the-art venues, delivering a complete experience around every game, creating lasting memories and loyal fans. In order to do so, they perform a wide variety of functions beyond hosting the game itself. They often house training and healthcare facilities for players and staff, offer concessions and souvenirs for fans, provide VIP experiences, and offer parking and transportation—and there is also a need to maintain the ice itself. All of these goals must be met while ensuring the safety and security of every individual and asset within the arena. Key control systems installed throughout a hockey arena can provide measurable benefits by enhancing security and convenience for all of the arena’s operations, as well as increased staff productivity and accountability.
Professional sports is a high-octane, fast-paced world with needs that can change in an instant. Major sports stadiums contribute to the ever-changing nature of the business, and not just by providing the facilities to hold the games themselves. These state-of-the-art venues perform an extensive slate of functions in order to create a complete experience that makes lasting memories and creates loyal fans excited to return and cheer on their team again.
When it comes to the world of professional sports, there are very few leagues that don’t bring in a hefty yearly revenue. On average, NFL teams generate $286 million per year, while Major League Baseball franchises average $237 million per year.
A stadium environment is a complex one, with varied areas of security, multiple services provided in different areas of the arena, tiered accesses for VIPs, talent, staff, and others, and of course, the huge crowds that sports, concerts, and other events draw. Properly securing every area of a stadium, while also ensuring that appropriate access is efficiently granted to authorized persons, is a massive undertaking for stadium security, that can create big security risks. Below are some common challenges faced in a stadium or arena facility:
The fast-paced, full-contact world of sports pushes the human body to its limits as athletes become ever stronger, jump higher, and run faster to compete at the top levels of myriad sporting disciplines. And as we push the human body in pursuit of sporting greatness, we also open ourselves to the possibility of injury. The healthcare industry and sporting associations have long worked together to treat injuries as they happen, understand why the injury occurred, and work to prevent future harm.
Securing smart cities with smart locks might be the next big thing – but what about securing small and mid-sized municipalities and cities that still rely on traditional locks and keys? With so much talk about the use of keyless entry, it seems as though the reliance on physical keys that persists throughout all municipalities has been largely overlooked.
Hotels play host to priceless experiences: family vacations, million-dollar views, and once-in-a-lifetime adventures. But as every hotel executive knows, it is the assets inside that are even more valuable: people, property, and sense of safety. Protecting hotel assets therefore requires an iron-clad approach to security, also known as zero trust. With the help of key control solutions, hotels can easily begin implementing zero trust security policies that start working on day one.
Proptech is one of the biggest trends for security in 2022, according to the Security Industry Association’s 2022 Megatrends Report1. Proptech, or property technology – also known as real estate technology – is technology, software platforms or applications designed for the management, sale and rental of buildings. Within proptech, security technology is a fast-growing segment as building owners and managers seek the best ways to keep tenants, employees and visitors safe and secure.
