Access control
Control who gets in, and when
Keys get copied, lost and never returned. Access control replaces them with fobs, cards, PINs or phone access that you can add or cancel without changing a lock, and each door, gate or entry can have its own rules for who gets in and when.
We install, repair and maintain access control for offices, warehouses, schools, strata buildings and homes: readers, door controllers, electric strikes and maglocks, intercoms and the power behind them. Our team holds a NSW Security Industry Licence (Class 2C), and electric locks on exit doors are set up to release in an emergency.

Know the rules
What the rules say about access control
Licensing and exit door rules from NSW Police and the Australian Building Codes Board.
Electric lock on an exit door? Fail-safe is the test
Fail-safe
the test for using the building code's lock exemption
The Australian Building Codes Board explains that an electric lock on an exit door can only use the building code's fail-safe exemption if it is genuinely fail-safe, so access to exits is enabled immediately in an emergency, with effectively no time delay.
Exit door hardware? One hand, one action
One action
push, or a single downward action
The Australian Building Codes Board says that if an exit door latch can't open with a pushing action, it must open with a single downward action, using one hand.

What is access control?
Access control is an electronic system that decides who can open a door, gate or entry, and when. Instead of keys, people use a fob, card, PIN or their phone, and you can add or remove access without changing locks.
Do you install intercoms?
Yes. Audio and video intercoms for homes, offices and apartment buildings, including building entry intercoms with a handset or app for each unit.
Can you install access control in a strata building?
Yes. We install entry systems for lobbies, car park doors and common areas, and work with strata managers and owners corporations on access and timing.
Are you licensed to install access control?
Yes. NSW requires security system installers, including access control, to be licensed. Our team holds a NSW Security Industry Licence, Class 2C Security Equipment Specialist (S00018909), on top of NSW electrical contractor licence 399632C.
What happens to electric locks in a fire or power failure?
Under the building code, electric locks on exit doors generally need to be fail-safe, so the exit opens in an emergency. We set up locking on exit paths to release when it should, and we'll tell you if a door needs a different type of lock.
Do you repair access control systems?
Yes. We find and fix faults with readers, keypads, electric locks, intercoms, door controllers and the power supplies behind them, including systems we didn't install.
Do you offer access control maintenance?
Yes. We check readers, locks, power supplies and backup batteries on a schedule, and can include access control in a maintenance contract with your other electrical checks.
Can access control work with CCTV and alarms?
Yes. Access control can be set up alongside CCTV and alarm systems, so your entries, cameras and alarms work together.
Can you upgrade our old intercom or key system?
Yes. We replace old intercoms and keyed entries with modern systems, and check whether the existing cabling can be reused.
How much will it cost?
Site assessments are free, and our work is fixed price. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so the price you agree to is the price you pay. There are no hidden fees.
Which areas do you cover?
All across Sydney. We look after sites in Wetherill Park, Kemps Creek and the western industrial precincts, plus Penrith, the Blue Mountains and the Hawkesbury.
