Extend performance.
Avoid unnecessary replacement.
ADB SAFEGATE helps airports repair, upgrade and modernise existing airside infrastructure — protecting previous investment while improving reliability, performance and maintainability.
Modernisation starts with understanding what can be retained.
Airport systems rarely need to be replaced all at once. ADB SAFEGATE assesses installed infrastructure, identifies where repair or targeted upgrades can extend useful life, and helps airports prioritise investment around operational risk and long-term performance.
Retain what performs
Do not replace serviceable infrastructure without a clear operational reason.
Repair where practical
Restore equipment performance using genuine parts and OEM expertise.
Upgrade where necessary
Replace obsolete or high-risk components without disrupting the entire system.
Plan for what comes next
Ensure today’s upgrades support future operational and digital requirements.
Plan the next stage of your installed infrastructure.
Our specialists can assess your current systems and recommend where repair or targeted upgrades will deliver the greatest value.
ADB SAFEGATE provides six core design resources: a CCR calculator, photometric design tools, a BIM object library, design specifications, typical installation drawings, and project-specific engineering support. All resources are available free of charge to airport designers, consultants and engineers.
Yes. The CCR calculator is available free of charge through the ADB SAFEGATE website. It calculates the correct Constant Current Regulator rating for a given circuit based on cable length, lamp quantity and lamp type — in accordance with ICAO and FAA requirements.
A CCR calculator is an engineering tool that determines the required current regulator rating for an airfield lighting series circuit. It takes inputs including circuit cable length, lamp type and quantity, and returns the minimum CCR specification needed to maintain correct current across the full circuit under all operating conditions.
Photometric design tools calculate the intensity levels produced by a proposed airfield lighting layout and compare them against ICAO Annex 14 minimum and maximum requirements. Inputs include fixture types, spacings, approach paths and runway geometry. Outputs confirm regulatory compliance and identify non-compliant zones.
