New Exit Lane Corridors Provides Additional Security for Passengers
As Nashville International Airport®, (BNA®) continues to experience tremendous growth, the airport is integrating Dormakaba Exit Lane Breach Control at A/B Concourse and C/D Concourse exits.
Dormakaba Exit Lane Corridors are an automated security system that provide higher security between the airside and landside areas in the airport, which adds additional security for passengers, airline crew and employees.
As passengers approach the exit lane corridor, a sensor at the top of the door will pick up their approach, open the doors, and passengers will walk through as they would any automatic door. The exit lanes are a one-way corridor only, allowing traffic to move from the gate area to the Grand Lobby and baggage claim areas. The integrated technology of an exit lane allows BNA to receive immediate alerts to any perceived security breach while also providing an improved and seamless traffic flow for passengers.
BNA passengers will begin flowing through the Exit Lane Corridors this week.

Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
This white paper discusses the hardware deployed, the test results and the annualized expectations for ROI.
