They said that the worst tragedy which can happen to a person is to encounter fire incident. If it is flood incident due to storms, you can still recover most of your properties. However, things get more complicated when it is a fire incident. Properties will be burned and lives will be taken. The devastation is an overwhelming feeling. As much as possible, we require a fast service from the fire department in our community in order to save properties that can be saved.

Fire fighters were trained to answer emergency calls as fast as possible. However, uncontrolled variables prevent them from responding quickly. For example, traffic jams cause their delay. In some other cases, the problem is with the community where the fire is taking place. Sometimes these communities delayed their operations because of the entrance requirement. Since communities are mostly gated, gaining access will be a bit of a hassle.

To address this kind of delay, EVAC or Emergency Vehicle Access Control is made for emergency responders to gain easy access to gated communities. EVAC is a radio controlled system which comes with a remote in order to let emergency vehicles like fire truck enter through gates without hassle. The remotes are on private code which are only available to authorities for them to use when responding to emergency calls involved in a gated property especially in cities such as Miami, Hialeah, and Miami Gardens.

The community will have to install the receiver in order for the remote to function and automatically open the gate. It can also be used on private and commercial gates. Upon approaching the gate, the personnel or fire fighter would simply push the button on the remote. Then the receiver installed on the entrance will detect the signal and automatically, the gate will open letting the fire truck in. No more delays.

Emergency vehicle access control was developed to help communities during emergencies by allowing emergency personnel to respond without delay.
