Access control

Access Control & Intercom Systems

Control who gets in, from a single video intercom on a private drive to credential-managed access across a multi-site estate.

Automation decides how a gate moves. Access control decides who makes it move, and that is usually where the real security sits. A gate with a keypad on a code everybody's ex-contractor still knows is not access control.

We install and integrate audio and video intercoms, GSM and IP door entry, keypads, proximity readers, encrypted fobs and cards, ANPR for vehicle recognition, and app-based access that can be granted and revoked without a site visit. For multi-occupancy and commercial sites we set up credential management so you can see and change who has access.

Where a site already has CCTV, a building management system or an existing panel, we integrate rather than duplicate. The aim is one coherent system, not three that half-work.

What this covers

  • Audio and video intercom systems, surface and flush mount
  • GSM and IP door entry for sites without a wired handset route
  • Keypads, proximity readers and encrypted fobs or cards
  • ANPR number-plate recognition for staff and resident vehicles
  • App-based and remote access with credential management
  • Multi-occupancy and apartment entry systems
  • Induction loops, free-exit and vehicle-detection controls
  • Maglocks, electric strikes and pedestrian gate integration
  • Integration with existing CCTV and building management systems
  • Credential audit: revoking cloned fobs and shared codes

Revocable credentials

Encrypted fobs and app access can be withdrawn the day someone leaves. A shared keypad code cannot, and copied legacy fobs are trivially cloned at a kiosk.

Integrated, not bolted on

We work with the CCTV, intercom or BMS already on site so you end up with one system and one point of control.

Managed remotely

Adding a contractor or removing a former tenant should not need an engineer's visit. Properly specified, it does not.

    Video intercom and app access retrofit, 48-flat development

    The brief
    A failing audio-only entry panel and a fob population that had been cloned so widely nobody knew who held access.
    What we did
    IP video door entry across all 48 flats, encrypted credentials issued individually, app access for residents and time-limited codes for deliveries. Legacy fobs revoked in one operation, with credential management handed to the management company.
