The SKIDATA sMove Mobile Kit: Temporary Access, Permanent Reliability

When access breaks down, the entire experience suffers.
Crowd control fails. Queues build up. Guests complain. Staff scramble.
Whether it’s a music festival, a theme park overflow gate, or a VIP event, the challenges of temporary access control are real, and growing.

If you manage ticketing operations, venue logistics, or portable infrastructure for temporary entrances, you know how fast things can go from smooth to stressful.
That’s exactly why SKIDATA created the mobile kit for the award-winning sMove access gate - a self-contained solution that turns temporary access into a high-performance, guest-friendly process.

The Old Way: Stress, Staff, and Slowdowns

Temporary setups have long relied on handheld scanners or manual ticket checks.

But they come with trade-offs:

• Slow throughput that creates bottlenecks
• Reliance on staff who can’t always scale with guest volume
• Downtime during power or battery changes
• Limited compatibility with modern access technologies
• Complicated logistics for setup and transport

In high-traffic situations, these issues lead to frustrated guests, increased costs, and lost time.

The sMove Mobile Kit: Built for Modern Event Operations

The mobile version of SKIDATA’s acclaimed sMove gate is designed to bring professional-grade access control to dynamic, fast-moving environments - without requiring permanent infrastructure.
What It Delivers:

• Rapid guest throughput - up to 700 entries per hour
• Powered by CAS - Cordless Alliance System:  a respected multi-brand system based on Metabo technology, used by 45+ manufacturers, built for tough environments
• Dual magnetic CAS batteries - one powers the gate while the other is swapped within 10 seconds, ensuring zero downtime
• Global battery availability - CAS batteries can be sourced locally, making logistics simpler and reducing downtime risk
• Barrier-free design - the sMove Wave is ADA-compliant and accessible for strollers, wheelchairs, and ski or sports gear
• Multi-credential compatibility - QR, RFID, NFC, Bluetooth, and biometrics
• Award-winning hardware design - used in leading destinations like Zermatt Gornergrat Bahn and Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis

Whether you need to manage queue flow, add a pop-up entry, or support a last-minute VIP gate, the sMove mobile kit offers a portable, plug-and-play solution for today’s access demands.

What’s the ROI?

Instead of scaling your staff to meet guest volume, the sMove gate allows you to scale technology and throughput - not headcount.

• Lower labor costs
• Faster entry speeds = better guest experience
• Fewer manual errors
• Reliable crowd control even in peak times

The value isn’t just in saving money - it’s in regaining control over guest access.
