Access Control Systems

Advanced Entry Management Solutions in Essex

At Beecham Security Ltd, we provide easy-to-use access control systems designed to keep your property secure and give you full control over who comes and goes. Whether it’s your home or business, we handle everything from design and installation to ongoing maintenance. Our custom systems are built around your needs, helping you manage access smoothly while boosting your overall security and peace of mind.

 

Our access control works by restricting entry to authorised personnel only, using various authentication methods. The system verifies credentials, grants or denies access, and maintains detailed logs of all entry attempts. This provides comprehensive protection while allowing legitimate users to move freely through designated areas.

How it works

Our Process

We will always give our customers clear and friendly advice throughout the design and installation phases. Here is a simple break down of the steps each customer would expect for a new access control system installation.

1. Quotation

Clear simple pricing via our website or on-site visit gives customers precise information on cost and installation with no hidden costs. A full break quotation will be emailed to customer and will require approval from customer. Our access management specialists will conduct a thorough assessment of your physical access requirements and security needs.

2. Installation

During the booking stage we will confirm the length of installation so an installation date can be confirmed. On the installation date, the engineer will send confirmation and tracking text. On arrival, the engineer will go through the control systems placement with the client to ensure satisfaction with the implementation of various levels of security.

3. Testing, Commissioning & Handover

At the end of the installation the engineer will fully test and commission the access control system, during this stage all paper work will be completed and sent over to the client. Finally the engineer will demonstrate how access control works and answer any questions the client has about managing the system.

4. Warranty & Service

All installations by Beecham Security come with 12 months warranty from the date of installation. Any issues within these dates will be rectified free of charge. 11 months after the installation a no-obligation service agreement will be emailed to the client which shows service details and costs for ongoing maintenance of your cost-effective management systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of installing access control systems for my property?

Access control systems provide numerous advantages including enhanced security, detailed entry logging, elimination of lost keys, remote access management, and reduced insurance premiums. These systems allow you to monitor who enters your property and when, restrict access to sensitive areas, and immediately revoke permissions if needed. For businesses, access control improves staff accountability and protects valuable assets, whilst residential installations offer peace of mind and convenient keyless entry for family members.

For small Essex businesses, proximity card systems or keypad entry systems typically offer the best balance of security, affordability, and ease of use. Card-based systems allow easy user management and provide audit trails, making them ideal for offices with 5-50 employees. Keypad systems work well for smaller teams or businesses with irregular staff access requirements. Our specialists assess your specific business needs, property layout, and budget to recommend the most appropriate access control solution.

Access control installation timeframes depend on system complexity and property size. Simple single-door keypad systems can be installed within 2-3 hours, whilst comprehensive multi-door commercial installations may require 1-3 days. Our engineers provide accurate time estimates during the quotation process and confirm installation duration when booking appointments. We work efficiently to minimise disruption to your daily operations whilst ensuring thorough testing and commissioning of all access control components.

Modern access control systems include backup power supplies and fail-safe mechanisms to maintain security during power interruptions. Battery backup units typically provide 4-24 hours of operation depending on system configuration. Many systems feature mechanical override options or emergency release functions to ensure safe exit during emergencies. We design all installations with reliability in mind, incorporating redundant power supplies and fail-secure locking mechanisms that maintain protection even during unexpected system disruptions or maintenance periods.
