Mul-T-Lock
eCLIQ®
Proves the
Perfect
Partner for
Glenveagh
National Park
» LEADING LOCK MANUFACTURER MUL-
T-Lock has provided Glenveagh National
Park in County Donegal with over 50
of its eCLIQ® locks in order to manage
access rights across the whole estate.
Spanning over 170 square
kilometres, Glenveagh National Park
is the second largest national park in
Ireland, boasting a number of rugged
mountains, pristine lakes, tumbling
waterfalls and enchanted native oak
woodland. At the centre of the Park on
the edge of Lough Veagh is Glenveagh
Castle, a late 19th century castellated
mansion, built as a hunting lodge.
With multiple facilities located on the
sprawling site, the Park required a high-
security and fully customisable access
control solution, and therefore opted for
Mul-T-Lock’s eCLIQ® system.
The new and advanced eCLIQ®
technology allows Park Managers to
schedule individual access permissions
for each lock, subsequently granting and
revoking access to various areas of the
estate whenever necessary.
Stephen Crowe, Regional Sales
Manager for Mul-T-Lock, commented: “At
Glenveagh National Park there is a need
to restrict public access from certain
areas for safety reasons, but at the same
time, relevant staff should be able to
access these areas whenever required.
“Our eCLIQ® system proved the
perfect solution for this, as administrators
(those who manage the security system)
can easily set-up tailored access
permissions remotely via our CLIQ®
Remote Web Manager software.
“With eCLIQ®, administrators also have
the ability to set time-limited access
– something that isn’t achievable with
a mechanical system. For example,
32
padlocks around the estate could be
programmed to allow access to certain
gates between Monday and Friday, from
8am to 6pm. It’s this customisation that
makes our system so popular.”
The Mul-T-Lock system was specified
and installed by Paul Speer at JP Speer
Locksmiths, who added: “We now have
over 50 eCLIQ® padlocks and cylinders
securing gates, offices and the Visitor
Centre within this impressive estate. The
complete system is managed from the
main office and once set up it is easily
maintained, with the flexibility to change
quickly whenever required.
“Another great feature with eCLIQ®
is the way in which you can expand the
system retrospectively when needed.
Glenveagh National Park has used
mechanical systems in the past, but
these haven’t been able to satisfy its
access control requirements. Mul-T-Lock’s
eCLIQ® technology ensures that access
rights are maintained for years to come.”
Pat Vaughan, District Conservation
Officer at Glenveagh National Park,
finished by saying: “Mul-T-Lock’s eCLIQ®
system is the perfect fit for our Park as
it has all the features that such a vast
estate as ours requires.
“During our summer season our
visitor numbers quadruple and we have
to employ seasonal staff to meet this
demand. Having such a system as Mul-T-
Lock’s eCLIQ® means that we can set up
temporary access for these workers, with
all the relevant access rights required.
“The eCLIQ® system also enables us
to deactivate keys and revoke access at
the click of a button. This is particularly
helpful if any of our team accidently lose
their keys, or if temporary staff forget to
return keys after their time with us.
“We are extremely happy that we
opted for the eCLIQ® system to secure
our beautiful estate; it will stand the test
of time for years to come and has all the
features we require to manage, build and
secure our Park and its future.”
