Abstract
A portable container is provided which comprises a passing room(s) allowing entry into a second area into a first area, the passing room having at least two openings with a walkway in-between. Barrier device(s) can be located in the walkway but not connected to the first or second opening. A control room(s) can also be provided, the control room being connected to the passing room(s).
Claims22
An access control system, comprising:
- an enclosure;
- and
- an access control unit disposed to fill an opening in a perimeter of the enclosure, the access control unit including:
- an ISO shipping container;
- at least one passing room disposed in the standard shipping container, the at least one passing room having at least a first passing room opening, and at least a second passing room opening, and a walkway in-between;
- at least one barrier device located in the walkway defining a first space between the first passing room opening and the at least one barrier device, and a second space between the at least one barrier device and the second passing room opening, the at least one barrier device including a turnstile, a sliding door, a revolving door or moving bars, or a combination thereof, that selectively blocks passage through the at least one barrier device and permit passage through the at least one barrier device;
- and
- an electronic controller coupled to the at least one barrier device and configured and arranged to selectively cause the at least one barrier device to block passage or permit passage through the at least one barrier device,
- wherein the enclosure and the access control unit define a first area outside the enclosure and a second area within the enclosure so that ingress to the second area is controlled by the access control unit and the at least one barrier device is controllable by the electronic controller to permit or block passage through the passing room into the second area.

An access control system, comprising:
- an enclosure delimiting a second area from a first area;
- and
- an access control unit disposed to fill an opening in a perimeter of the enclosure, the access control unit including:
- an ISO shipping container;
- at least one passing room disposed in the container, allowing entry into the second area from the first area, the at least one passing-room having at least a first passing room opening, at least a second passing room opening, and a walkway in-between;
- at least one barrier device located in the walkway defining a first space between the first passing room opening and the at least one barrier device, and a second space between the at least one barrier device and the second passing room opening, the at least one barrier device including a turnstile, a sliding door, a revolving door or moving bars, or a combination thereof that selectively blocks passage through the at least one barrier device and permits passage through the at least one barrier device;
- an electronic controller coupled to the at least one barrier device and configured and arranged to selectively cause the at least one barrier device to block or permit passage through the at least one barrier device;
- and
- at least one control room disposed in the container adjacent to the at least one passing room, with at least a first control room opening, the at least one control room having the electronic controller disposed therein for controlling the at least one barrier device to permit or block passage through the passing room into the second area,
- wherein a wall is disposed between the at least one control room and the at least one passing room.

An access control system, comprising:
- an enclosure;
- and
- an access control unit disposed to fill an opening in a perimeter of the enclosure, the access control unit including:
- an ISO shipping container;
- at least one passing room disposed in the portable container, the at least one passing room having at least a first passing room opening, and at least a second passing room opening, and a walkway in-between;
- at least one turnstile located in the walkway defining a first space between the first passing room opening and the at least one turnstile, and a second space between the at least one turnstile and the second passing room opening;
- and
- an electronic control device in communication with the at least one turnstile, wherein the enclosure and the access control unit define a first area outside the enclosure and a second area within the enclosure so that ingress to the second area is controlled by the access control unit and the electronic control device is configured to control the at least one turnstile to permit or block passage through the passing room into the second area.
