Traditional mechanical locks, push button locking and high security cylinder locks are tried and trusted security measures. From the simple and elegant mechanical digital push button lock with single code access to more sophisticated dual credentia’ systems designed for businesses with a large staff roster, each with their own unique entry code.

We supply door entry systems from the best manufacturers including entrance panel and posts, audio and video entry systems, intercom systems and power supplies. Whether you’re trying to secure a large office building, hospital, industrial estate, school, or any other type of building, an access control entry system helps you to manage and regulate entrances and exits on your property. Our solutions ensure that only authorised people are permitted to enter the building or parts of the building while restricting unauthorised people.

Upgraded door entry systems can provide multiple options for your employees to access the building via electronic door looks, including electronic access card, key fob, PIN, password or a biometric entry system. Access can be removed from the door entry system by reconfiguring the code which instantly deactivates the lost or invalid card or fob. Upgraded access control solutions include tracking movements of employees and visitors within the building. Fire safety is not compromised, since the entry system can be programmed to release all locks in the event that a fire alarm is triggered, allowing everyone on the premises to exit immediately.

We supply and install a range of mechanical code locks. We offer everything from entry-level light duty code locks to heavy duty locks which can be ideally used as primary locks for doors in a commercial setting.Mechanical digital code locks are ideal for offices with a large volume of traffic going in and out. They are extremely reliable and more durable than their digital rivals, whilst having the added advantages of offering easy DIY installation and being more affordable than digital versions. Codes can be easily changed and there are options for your outside or inside handle to have either a knob, thumb turn, lever or a paddle handle.

Audio visual entry gives you peace of mind with the knowledge that your residents or employees are safe and secure. Audio door entry equipment enables a quick and easy access control – you decide who can enter your residential or commercial premises. Audio door entry is made up of a speaker with a buzzer system which is placed at the entrance to the property making it possible for visitors to communicate with the residents and employees inside. Those inside can then decide whether to grant entry and can do so remotely via an electric release mechanism. Video door entry systems work the same way as audio systems but with face to face video contact – these are ideal for commercial premises with a large volume of people entering and leaving. Many video intercom systems can be used in conjunction with CCTV footage to help identify criminals.

Electronic digital locks provide an affordable and easy security solution in places where allocation of keys or cards is not practical due to numbers of people going in and out of the building on a daily basis. A digital door lock can vary greatly in price from standard budget internal digital door locks to heavy duty touch locks. Digital door locks can be useful in a number of settings, especially where certain areas of a building require more protection and access needs to be restricted only to authorised staff. There are a variety of models to meet all needs from securing a small stationery cupboard to a large-scale hospital building.

Magnetic door locks (mag locks) are based on the science of electromagnetism. These locks are opened and secured using magnetic force and are so powerful that they provide sufficient strength to keep the door locked. The magnet is connected to an electric source which produces a strong magnetic attraction between the plate and the magnet which is powerful enough to lock the door. The lock is operated using the electrical system of the building or a battery pack. Once the power goes out the lock will not work and will remain unlocked which is an important safety aspect during the event of an emergency. Importantly, magnetic locks cannot be tampered with. They are usually operated via a buzzer or a keypad system where a code needs to be punched. Card readers are also commonly used in commercial settings such as in hotels where there are large numbers of people going in and out. They have the added convenience of being easy to cancel out should access no longer be authorised.

Door Entry Systems are an excellent solution for a property where it is not possible for a hard wired door entry system to be installed. Telephone technology is used and is useful when there is a large distance between a gated entrance and a building. This technology can empower you to control access remotely, and more effectively monitor your property from any distance. Our door entry systems solution can also work with your current security system in order to control access and provide additional monitoring.

Smart door locks are becoming increasingly popular and more affordable, opening up a completely new way to secure your home without the use of conventional keys and with that little bit more. Not only will you never have to change your locks or get keys cut, smart door locks also enable you to track who is going in and out of your home even when you’re not there.

Code locks have become an increasingly popular keyless option to conventional locks. They offer the convenience of enabling visitors to gain access to a building just by punching in a code rather than using a key. Their biggest selling point is that they save the inconvenience and the cost of having to cut keys and change locks every time security is compromised.
