Smarter Security Systems launches new fastlane optical turnstiles

Smarter Security Systems has launched three all new and four improved Fastlane optical turnstiles. The changes include a complete refresh of the Fastlane Plus line of barrier turnstiles and improvements to GlassWing that make the stylish turnstile a better investment and accessible to more organizations.  The enhancements to Fastlane Plus barrier turnstiles are extensive and include: upgraded barrier arms that are nearly silent in operation and can change direction mid-cycle for faster throughput, new indicator lights to improve ease of use, and the addition of a power outage failsafe option which further enhances safety. While aesthetics are one of the key advantages of Fastlane over the competition, upgrades to the appearance make Fastlane Plus turnstiles even more elegant and include tops that run the entire length of the pedestal for a streamlined look, and a change to a horizontal grain in the stainless steel used for the entire pedestal body which reflects light better and is more attractive.  For all new or improved Fastlane turnstiles, an important change that addresses a growing need in the market is the deepening of the tray beneath the tops which allows multiple readers to be installed. Increasingly, buildings require more than just a proximity reader to handle all the traffic entering their buildings. Bar code readers are commonly used for visitors and this added space in the turnstile will easily accommodate multiple readers. Fastlane GlassWing has been improved in many of the same ways as Fastlane Plus. Instead of arms, this turnstile has glass "wing-shaped" barriers that have been made stronger to resist breakage. Most significant, however, is the launch of a compact version that allows for a lane that is only 21.7" wide. Losing none of its aesthetic appeal or security capability, this smaller version is more affordable and fits into tighter spaces, making it a viable option for even more organizations. All Fastlane turnstiles are based on the highly intelligent Fastlane optical technology, which is more secure because it detects tailgaters ?-inch behind authorized personnel while enabling faster throughput and increased alarm accuracy. The Fastlane Plus product line includes the 30MA, a new smaller, single-arm turnstile, the improved 300MA and 400MA, and the all-new 400AS.  GlassWing and the optical-only Fastlane Compact have also been improved and the Fastlane Elliptical - a non-barrier, optical turnstile with an imposing pedestal - is all new as well.

Investing in a falling rate environment - by Harrison Klein

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.

The industrial markets have never been stronger. What has happened is that the build out of Devens with new high-tech biotech manufacturing with housing to service these buildings serves as the connector required to really make the I-495 West market sizzle. Worcester has been the beneficiary
