AFA members’ services are required to be kept fully operational during this unfortunate time.
Services such as temporary and permanent fence, and gates installation and repair will be required to support the shutdown of plants, facilities and venues and continued services for repairs of electric gate openers, access controls systems and all related components will be critical during this COVID-19 Pandemic.
