- Fire-compliant locking and release on escape routes
- All makes installed, repaired and maintained
The short version
A keypad releases the door when the correct PIN is entered. There is no credential to lose, which makes it ideal for shared and occasional access.
Buildings in Cheshire 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.
Typical Cheshire applications
Stock rooms, gates, communal doors, holiday lets, plant rooms and contractor access points.
- 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.
- Gated and yard sites — gate intercoms, long-range readers, barriers and ANPR for permit holders.
Scope of works
- Duress code options on supported systems
- Vandal and weather-resistant metal keypads
- Multiple user codes with individual audit where the controller supports it
What to insist on
- Use individual codes, not one shared code, so you can revoke one person
- Backlighting matters on any door used in the dark
- Metal keys wear better than membrane on high-traffic doors
From first call to handover
First a survey, then a written quote per door, then a booked date — in that order, with no pressure between the steps. Most of the cost variation between quotations comes down to cable routing, which is exactly what a survey exists to establish. Every quote is itemised door by door, so you can see exactly what each opening costs before you commit.
Handover includes a tested fire release, a loaded user list, as-fitted details and the commissioning record — the paperwork your fire risk assessor and insurer will eventually ask for.

Keypad Entry Systems in Cheshire — questions
Do you install keypad entry systems in Cheshire?
Yes. Cheshire is part of our regular England coverage and keypad 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 keypad entry systems cost in Cheshire?
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.
How often should PIN codes be changed?
Change any shared code whenever someone leaves, and review all codes at least twice a year. Individual codes reduce how often this is necessary.
Can a keypad work without mains power at the door?
Battery-powered standalone keypad locks exist and suit outbuildings, but for a main entrance a wired unit with battery-backed power supply is far more dependable.
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.
Is access control suitable for a block of flats?
It is one of the most common applications. A digital directory panel, per-flat handsets, resident fobs and a managed trades window replace the shared code and the endless label changes. The communal system is usually the freeholder or managing agent's responsibility.
What maintenance does an access control system need?
One or two service visits a year for most commercial sites. Each visit should cover door-by-door inspection, lock and release testing, fire interface verification, battery and power checks, and a user-list review, with a written report you can give your fire risk assessor.
