Intelligent Vehicle Access & Audit Logging for Secure Sites

ANPR Guardian is a smart, automated vehicle access and monitoring system designed for secure sites, depots, industrial premises, and managed facilities.
Using intelligent number plate recognition, ANPR Guardian controls barriers and gates, logs every vehicle movement, and provides a clear audit trail all managed through the Engineer M8 online portal.

No manual key fobs. No shared access cards. No guesswork.

ANPR Guardian integrates directly with compatible on-site ANPR cameras, meaning:

  • No need to replace existing camera infrastructure

  • Faster deployment

  • Lower upfront cost

  • Minimal disruption to live sites

The system uses the camera’s number plate detection data to make real-time access decisions and log all vehicle activity.
