In plain terms
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.
The Gloucestershire sites we fit this on are rarely starting from nothing. There is normally something already on the door, working badly or not at all, and the first real question is whether it is worth keeping.
Common Gloucestershire use cases
Stock rooms, gates, communal doors, holiday lets, plant rooms and contractor access points.
- Retrofit and repair — fault-finding on all common makes, with honest repair-versus-replace numbers.
- 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.
What the price covers
- Backlit keys and anti-shoulder-surf fascias
- Standalone or networked configurations
- Duress code options on supported systems
Avoiding the usual mistakes
- 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
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.
Once it is in, we test it door by door, prove the fire release with the alarm panel, enrol your users and hand over the records. Maintenance, if you want it, is a separate and optional arrangement.

Keypad Entry Systems in Gloucestershire — questions
Do you install keypad entry systems in Gloucestershire?
Yes. Gloucestershire 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 Gloucestershire?
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.
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.
