Door Entry Systems explained
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.
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.
Where it gets used across County Antrim
Flats, offices, surgeries, nurseries and small commercial units with a single controlled entrance.
- 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.
- Commercial premises — multi-door fob or card systems with access levels, time zones and a full audit trail.
- Blocks of flats — digital directory panels, per-flat handsets, resident fobs and a managed trades window.
What you actually get
- Surface or flush entrance panel, vandal-resistant stainless steel
- Audio or video handsets, wired or app-connected
- Electric strike or maglock with integral door release
- Trade button or timed access window for deliveries
Specifying it well
- Flush panels look better but need a back box cut into the wall
- 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
How the job runs
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. Every quote is itemised door by door, so you can see exactly what each opening costs before you commit.
After install the system is commissioned, the fire interface is tested against the alarm, your users are loaded and the documentation is handed over on the day rather than chased later.

Door Entry Systems in County Antrim — questions
Do you install door entry systems in County Antrim?
Yes. County Antrim is part of our regular Northern Ireland 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 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.
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.
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.
Can I answer the door entry from my phone?
Yes. App-connected panels forward the call to your mobile with video, so you can see who is there and release the door from anywhere with a signal. The panel-to-handset call still works on its own wiring if broadband drops.
