Case Study: Oliver Law Security achieves instant membership validation and cloud-based access control for Doncaster’s The Dome with acre security

OLS install ACT365 in one of Doncaster’s largest gyms

Oliver Law Security took on a project to upgrade access control at Doncaster Culture and Leisure Trust’s premier venue, The Dome, specifically protecting The Fitness Village gym. They faced a complex brief to improve staff and customer experience, migrate members from barcodes to RFID, integrate the onsite gym membership system and SQL server, and install fast swing-speed gates and slim lanes with advanced obstacle protection. Partnering with vendor acre security, they chose the cloud-based ACT365 access control platform to meet these requirements.

acre security implemented ACT365 with a focused API integration into the gym management system and SQL server, enabling single-source member data and autonomous daily updates. The result was immediate validation at entry points versus the previous 3–5 second delay, seamless adding/updating/revoking of memberships for potentially thousands of users, no need for new on-site servers, and easy management via the ACT365 app — delivering faster throughput, improved security, and a future-proof, scalable solution.
