Gate Automation
We supply and install automated gates for residential and commercial properties. Our systems combine security with convenience, allowing remote access control via intercoms or mobile devices. With over 30 years of experience, we ensure safe installations compliant with BS EN 12453:2001 standards.
Force Testing
Our HSE-compliant force testing verifies that automated gates meet legal safety requirements. Using calibrated equipment, we measure forces at gate fulcrums to prevent accidents. Clients receive certification for ongoing compliance with regulatory standards.
Access Control
We implement intelligent access control solutions using magnetic locks, code pads, and proximity systems. These integrate with existing security infrastructure to manage entry while maintaining audit trails for enhanced security monitoring.
Intercom Systems
Our Videx 4G intercoms enable remote property access via mobile devices. Systems include video verification and GSM integration for global accessibility, ensuring secure entry control for both domestic and commercial premises.
Maintenance Contracts
We offer scheduled maintenance visits to ensure ongoing system reliability. Plans include quarterly, bi-annual, or annual servicing with priority breakdown response for critical systems, minimising operational disruptions.
