Proximity Fob & Card Readers explained
Proximity readers work by presenting an encrypted fob or card. The credential is checked against the system, the door releases, and the event is logged with a name and a timestamp.
In Hampshire 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.
Where it gets used across Hampshire
Offices, gyms, storage sites, laboratories, student accommodation and anywhere keys keep going missing.
- 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
- Slimline, keypad-combined or long-range reader options
- Reader-to-controller wiring on OSDP where the hardware supports it
- Instant cancellation of lost credentials from the management software
- Printable staff and visitor cards where you need photo ID
Specifying it well
- Long-range readers suit vehicle entrances where drivers stay seated
- Order spare credentials at install; they are cheaper in a batch
- Insist on encrypted credentials — basic 125kHz fobs can be copied in a kiosk
How the job runs
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. Free site survey, fixed written quotation, and no work starts until you have approved the price.
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.

Proximity Fob & Card Readers in Hampshire — questions
Do you install proximity fob & card readers in Hampshire?
Yes. Hampshire is part of our regular England coverage and proximity fob & card readers 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 proximity fob & card readers cost in Hampshire?
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 lost fobs really be cancelled instantly?
Yes. You delete the credential in the software and it stops working at the next presentation — no locks changed, no cost.
Are our existing fobs reusable?
If they are an encrypted format the new system supports, often yes. We read a sample during the survey and tell you before you commit.
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.
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.
