Access control from Salts

The right system for your building, fitted and looked after properly.

Access control lets you decide who can get into your building, and which doors they can use, without handing out keys. We install and maintain access control for offices, schools, factories, blocks of flats and shared buildings.

A lost fob can be cancelled in seconds, so there is no need to change the locks. Staff only get access to the areas and hours they need, and you have a record of who went where and when, which helps after an incident.

Because we also install fire alarms, we can connect the two systems so doors on escape routes release when the alarm sounds, and check that link on every service visit.

What we install

The systems we install

Fob and card readers

For a single door or a whole site, with users managed from one screen.

Keypad entry

For stores, plant rooms and staff areas where a code is simpler than a fob.

Door entry and video intercoms

For main entrances, reception and blocks of flats, so you can see who is at the door before letting them in.

Locking hardware

Maglocks, electric strikes, exit buttons and green break-glass units for emergency release.

Gates and barriers

Control for vehicle gates and car park barriers, including fob, keypad and intercom options.

Software and reporting

Add or remove users, set times each door can be used, and see who went through which door.

From survey to servicing

How it works

1

Free site survey

We visit, look at how the building is used and what your fire risk assessment or insurer asks for.

Written quote

You get a fixed, itemised quote before any work starts, with the system explained in plain English.

Installation

Our own engineers fit the system, working around your opening hours where we can.

We test everything, hand over certificates and drawings, and show you how to use it.

5

Maintenance

We look after it with planned servicing, reminders and a 24/7 fault line for customers.

Servicing and maintenance

What a service visit includes

We put you on a maintenance plan, book the visits, remind you when they are due and keep the paperwork your fire risk assessment or insurer asks for. We take over systems fitted by other companies too.

Checking locks, readers and door hardware
Testing power supplies and backup batteries
Testing the fire alarm release on escape-route doors
Checking the software, user list and event log
Reporting any faults in writing with a quote to fix them

Standards and your responsibilities

What you need to know

We work to BS EN 60839-11-1.

Escape routes

Electronically locked doors on escape routes must release when the fire alarm sounds or the power fails.

Emergency release

A green break-glass unit lets people open a locked door in an emergency.

Data

Access logs are personal data. Keep them secure and only for as long as you need them.

FAQs

Access control questions

What happens to the doors in a fire?

We link access control to your fire alarm so doors on escape routes release automatically when the alarm sounds, and we test that link on every service visit.

Can I add or remove fobs myself?

Yes. Paxton systems let you add, block and change users from simple software or an app.

Someone has lost a fob. What do I do?

Cancel it in the software. It stops working straight away, with no need to change any locks.

Can you take over an existing system?

Yes. We can service and support systems fitted by other companies.

Can access control work with our CCTV?

Often, yes. Many systems can link door events to camera footage so you can see who used a door.

Do you fit door entry for flats?

Yes. We fit video and audio door entry for blocks of flats and shared buildings.
