What Electric Locks & Maglocks is

The lock is the part that actually holds the door. Getting it right — and getting the fail-safe or fail-secure decision right — is the difference between a secure door and a dangerous one.

Most County Armagh 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.

Who asks for it in County Armagh

Every access-controlled door, on every type of building.

  • 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.
  • Commercial premises — multi-door fob or card systems with access levels, time zones and a full audit trail.

What a proper install includes

  • Door closers and hold-open devices where required
  • Magnetic locks from 280kg to 545kg holding force
  • Electric strikes, solenoid bolts and motorised multi-point locks

Getting the specification right

  • Fire escape doors almost always need fail-safe locking and free egress
  • Maglocks need a rigid frame — a flexing UPVC door needs a different approach
  • Match holding force to the door, not to a catalogue headline

Survey, quote, install

The survey covers every door in scope: leaf and frame condition, existing hardware, power and cable routes, and whether the opening sits on an escape route. That produces a fixed written price, broken down per door so it can be compared honestly against anyone else's. We survey, quote in writing, and only then book the install. No estimates over the phone that change on the day.

We commission before we leave: every door tested, every release proved with the fire alarm, users enrolled and someone on your side shown how to add and cancel a credential.

Electric Locks & Maglocks in County Armagh — questions

Do you install electric locks & maglocks in County Armagh?

Yes. County Armagh is part of our regular Northern Ireland coverage and electric locks & maglocks 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 electric locks & maglocks cost in County Armagh?

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.

What is the difference between fail-safe and fail-secure?

A fail-safe lock releases when power is lost — used on escape routes. A fail-secure lock stays locked when power is lost — used where security must survive an outage. The fire strategy for the building decides which goes where.

Is a maglock legal on a fire exit?

Yes, when it is fail-safe, interfaced to the fire alarm, fitted with a green emergency break-glass release, and free egress is maintained. Fitted any other way it is a serious life-safety risk.

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.

Do you cover my area?

We cover England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland through our installation network, with regional engineers rather than one central team. Tell us the postcode when you enquire and we will confirm coverage and realistic attendance times.
