- Coverage across County Antrim is part of our established network, including the surrounding towns and outlying commercial estates.
- Fire-compliant locking and release on escape routes

In plain terms
Integration links the access control system to CCTV so every door event has a matching video clip. Instead of scrubbing hours of footage, you click the event and watch it.
Buildings in County Antrim usually reach this point when the number of keyholders outgrows anybody's memory of who has what. At that stage an audit trail stops being a nice extra and starts being the reason to do it at all.

The process
An engineer attends the site, checks each opening, confirms the cable route and establishes how the fire strategy affects the locking. You get a written quotation itemised per door with the hardware named. Nothing is ordered until you approve it. Free site survey, fixed written quotation, and no work starts until you have approved the price.
Commissioning is part of the job, not an extra visit. You finish with a working system, a tested fire interface, and a named person on your team who knows how to administer it.

CCTV & Access Integration in County Antrim — questions
Do you install cctv & access integration in County Antrim?
Yes. County Antrim is part of our regular Northern Ireland coverage and cctv & access integration is one of our core services. Give us the postcode and the number of doors when you enquire and we will confirm a survey slot.
What does cctv & access integration cost in County Antrim?
Pricing is driven by door count and hardware rather than county. As a guide, a single controlled door lands between £750 and £1,500 installed, with multi-door sites working out at £600 to £1,100 per door. The survey is free and the written quote is fixed.
Do the access control and CCTV need to be the same brand?
Not necessarily, but they do need a supported integration. We check compatibility at survey so you are not sold two systems that will never talk to each other.
How long should we keep the footage?
Only as long as you have a justified need. Many sites settle on 30 days. Whatever you choose should be written down in your policy and actually enforced by the recorder.
How long does an access control system take to install?
A single door is normally half a day to a day. A typical 8 to 12 door commercial system takes two to four days on site, followed by a commissioning visit to load users, set access levels and hand over. Larger sites are phased so the building stays secure throughout.
Do you work on systems installed by someone else?
Yes. We repair, service and extend all common makes of access control, door entry and intercom, whoever installed them. If a system is genuinely beyond economic repair we will say so and show you the numbers for both options.
Does the door have to unlock when the fire alarm sounds?
On a designated escape route, yes. The locking must fail safe and release on alarm, free mechanical egress must be maintained, and every maglocked escape door needs a green emergency break-glass release. This is a life-safety requirement and we test it with the fire alarm at commissioning.
