What it does

Mobile access turns a phone into the credential. Permissions are issued over the air, so a new starter can be granted access before they arrive and a leaver revoked the moment they go.

In Greater Manchester this tends to be specified in one of two situations: a new fit-out where it can be designed in cleanly, or a retrofit where cable routes and existing door hardware dictate half the answer. Both are routine for us; they are just priced differently.

Who we install it for in Greater Manchester

Multi-site businesses, flexible workspaces, contractors, property managers and anyone tired of couriering fobs.

  • 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.
  • Retrofit and repair — fault-finding on all common makes, with honest repair-versus-replace numbers.

Included as standard

  • Cloud management with remote issue and revoke
  • Time-limited visitor and contractor passes
  • Optional multi-factor with device unlock required

Questions worth asking any installer

  • Always keep a physical credential option for visitors and phone-flat days
  • Check the cloud platform's data residency if that matters to you
  • Budget for the ongoing subscription, not just the hardware

How we deliver it

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. Free site survey, fixed written quotation, and no work starts until you have approved the price.

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.

Mobile & App-Based Access in Greater Manchester — questions

Do you install mobile & app-based access in Greater Manchester?

Yes. Greater Manchester is part of our regular England coverage and mobile & app-based access 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 mobile & app-based access cost in Greater Manchester?

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 if someone's phone battery dies?

You keep a fallback: a fob, a PIN, or an intercom to reception. We never specify a single credential type with no alternative.

Is there a monthly cost?

Mobile credentials are normally subscription-based, priced per user or per door. We show you the three-year total at quote stage, not just the install price.

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.
