Security & access
Security is layers, not a camera
A camera records what went wrong. The layers below are what stop it going wrong: a gate that closes itself, a door that knows who you are, an alarm that notices what both missed, and a screen that shows you who knocked. We fit all four, separately or together, and a survey tells you which ones your premises actually needs.
Layer 1
The perimeter: gates and barriers
Most intrusions never get past a gate that closes itself and logs who opened it. We motorise existing sliding and swing gates where the steelwork allows, fit boom barriers for yards and societies, and wire them to remotes, keypads or your phone.
- Sliding and swing gate motors on existing gates
- Boom barriers for factories, societies and parking
- Remote, keypad, RFID and phone-app opening
- Safety stop on obstruction — non-negotiable with children around
Layer 2
The door: locks that know who you are
Keys get copied and never come back from staff who leave. A fingerprint or card reader ends both problems: access is per-person, revoked in seconds, and logged. On a school gate or an office door, the same terminal doubles as the attendance register.
- Fingerprint and face terminals on doors and gates
- RFID card and PIN keypad locks
- Time-zoned access — staff in working hours, owner always
- Attendance export to payroll
Layer 3
Detection: intruder, fire and smoke
If someone is inside who should not be, or something is burning, minutes matter. Door contacts, motion sensors and smoke detectors report to a panel that sounds a siren and calls your phone. Fire detection goes in first at any premises that stores stock — fire does not wait for closing time.
- Wired and wireless intruder alarms with battery backup
- Smoke and heat detection for stock rooms and kitchens
- Siren, strobe and phone-call alerting
- Zoning, so the shop can be armed while the house above is not
Layer 4
Verification: see who is there before the door opens
A video door phone lets the counter answer the yard gate, or the house answer the street, without anyone walking to the door. In a clinic or a school office it quietly removes the single most common security lapse — opening the door to see who knocked.
- Video door phones for homes, offices and clinics
- Multi-flat intercom for plazas and societies
- Remote release wired to the electric lock
- Answer from a phone when nobody is at the desk
What the survey decides before we quote
Fail-safe or fail-secure
When power dies, does each door unlock or stay locked? A fire escape must open; a stock room must not. This is decided per door, with you, and written on the quote.
Battery for the real outage
Backup batteries are sized against this district's load-shedding pattern, not the two-hour figure in the datasheet. An alarm that dies with the power is a sticker, not a system.
What ties into what
The gate, the lock, the alarm and the cameras can share one timeline — the door log stamped over the footage. Fitted together, they share cabling and cost less than four separate jobs.
Security questions
- Can biometric attendance feed my payroll?
- Yes. The terminal keeps the register and exports it, and if you use our attendance software the hours flow straight into salary calculation. If you already have payroll software, we export in a format your accountant can import rather than asking you to change systems.
- Do alarms and electric locks work during load-shedding?
- They must, or they are decoration. Every alarm panel and access controller we fit runs on a battery sized for the outage pattern here, not the one in the brochure — and fail-safe versus fail-secure on each door is a decision we make with you, in writing, not a default we leave in place.
- What does a security system cost?
- A standalone fingerprint door lock starts around PKR 18,000 fitted. A wired intruder alarm for a shop with siren, panel and battery typically lands between PKR 35,000 and 60,000. Gate automation depends entirely on the weight and condition of your gate, so that one is priced at survey rather than guessed here.
