Marnia Security

Safety - Security Improvements for Dock Gates
Shortly after the new dock gates were installed, customers noticed that someone could get around the gate by climbing along the exterior of the gate enclosure. Marina management and operations partnered with the Port’s maintenance shop to devise a fix to discourage this type of security breach. In addition, customers discovered that strong wind catching the gates could keep them from closing and locking properly. Again, the Port’s maintenance shop fabricated and tested new door coverings that reduced wind resistance allowing the gates to close properly. These improvements are scheduled for installation over the next several weeks for all gates.
