- Fire-compliant locking and release on escape routes
- All makes installed, repaired and maintained
In plain terms
A door entry system lets someone at the entrance call you, and lets you release the door without walking to it. It is the simplest form of access control and the one most buildings start with.
Most Caerphilly enquiries for this arrive after something went wrong — a break-in, a shared code that spread, or a door that was propped open for months. The system is the fix, but the survey is where it is decided properly.
Common Caerphilly use cases
Flats, offices, surgeries, nurseries and small commercial units with a single controlled entrance.
- Schools and nurseries — controlled single points of entry, visitor management and safeguarding-aware layouts.
- Healthcare and care homes — step-free automated entry, staff-only zones and fail-safe escape routes.
- Warehouses and depots — vehicle gate control, personnel doors and turnstiles on the pedestrian route.
- Retail and hospitality — back-of-house control, cash-office restriction and CCTV-linked door events.
What the price covers
- Trade button or timed access window for deliveries
- Power supply with battery backup so entry survives a short outage
- Surface or flush entrance panel, vandal-resistant stainless steel
Avoiding the usual mistakes
- If the cable route is difficult, a wireless or app-based kit may cost less overall
- Check the panel is rated for the weather exposure at that entrance
- Audio is cheaper; video pays for itself the first time you avoid opening to a stranger
The process
Nothing gets priced from a phone call. An engineer walks the doors, notes what is there, works out what has to change, and puts it in writing with the hardware named and the per-door cost shown. Fixed-price quotations after survey — the figure you approve is the figure you pay.
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.

Door Entry Systems in Caerphilly — questions
Do you install door entry systems in Caerphilly?
Yes. Caerphilly is part of our regular Wales coverage and door entry systems 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 door entry systems cost in Caerphilly?
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.
Can I keep my existing wiring?
Often yes. Many modern systems run on two-wire or existing risers, which avoids re-cabling a whole block. We test the existing pairs before quoting so the price you get is the price you pay.
Can I answer the door from my phone?
Yes. App-connected panels forward the call to your mobile, so you can see the caller and release the door whether you are upstairs or out.
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.
Can lost fobs be cancelled?
Yes, instantly. You delete the credential in the software and it stops working the next time it is presented. There are no locks to change and no cost, which is the main practical reason buildings move from keys to access control.
