Design, installation, service and maintenance of stand alone or integrated Access Control Systems across the UK

All businesses have assets, whether intellectual or physical, which need protecting. Controlling access to your premises creates a secure environment for staff, visitors and property.

From controlling access to a single office within a large complex, to the design and development of a complex permission based system allowing individual users access to specific zones within a high security facility, The Thompson Group have the capabilities and experience to provide the optimum security solution to protect our clients' corporate assets.

From the first stages of system design, through installation, to handover and continued annual maintenance, you can be sure that we are protecting you throughout.

Our system designs range from a simple PIN controlled electronic door release to a variety of biometric readers.

Modern Access Control systems not only provide superior levels of protection, but can also generate cost savings on lock and key replacements through the ability to amend an individual's access rights at the touch of a button.

To ensure full compliance with relevant legislation and to simplify the day to day operation of the building, The Thompson Group can fully integrate access control with other life safety and security systems such as fire alarms and Equality Act compliant assistance facilities.

Design, installation, service and maintenance of stand alone or integrated intruder alarm / burglar alarm systems across the UK

The use of effective intruder detection and alarm systems will not only deter potential offenders, but can also minimise any losses and assist recovery if a burglary takes place.

Many companies ignore the real cost of a break in, criminal damage or theft until it is too late. The theft of stock, hardware and increasingly data can leave your business in turmoil.

Although your insurance company may cover the cost of some of the losses, the true cost of the disruption could mean delays, lost orders or even lost customers.

Whether you need silent notification of a perimeter breach, the invisible marking of property for later identification or the installation of an intruder alarm system that can identify a confirmed entry and remotely trigger a police response, our qualified and experienced engineers are able to design, install and maintain the appropriate system to suit your needs.

Working in partnership with the major product manufacturers, we are always able to offer the latest and most effective solution to combat any intruder.
