Frequently asked questions
Does it read UAE plates reliably?
Yes — the ANPR is tuned for UAE plate formats across the emirates and for local conditions (sun, glare, speed), with cameras and lighting positioned for accurate capture day and night.
Can it trigger the barrier automatically?
Yes — whitelisted plates open the barrier automatically with no card or ticket, while unknown or blacklisted plates are stopped, logged or sent to intercom, keeping traffic flowing for authorised vehicles.
Can it be used for parking management?
Yes — ANPR underpins ticketless parking, resident access and vehicle logging. See our Parking & ANPR page.
Is SIRA approval handled for me?
Yes — we design to SIRA (Dubai) and ADMCC (Abu Dhabi) standards and manage the approval process where required.
How long is CCTV footage stored?
By default we configure a minimum of 31 days of footage retention in line with SIRA requirements, and size storage to your site category and how long you need recordings kept. Longer retention is available where regulations or your own policy require it.
Can I watch the cameras on my phone?
Yes. We set up secure live and playback viewing from your phone, tablet and desktop, with multi-site access and optional cloud recording — so you can check any camera from anywhere, with role-based access for your team.
