Security Gate Access Control Systems | Security Barriers UK

Automated gates, barriers, turnstiles and bollards

All made for industrial, commercial, public, recreational and educational environments.

Security gates and barriers are essential for controlling access by pedestrians and vehicles to a wide range of sites. From a buyer’s perspective one of the most important aspects of security gates is safety, which is something of a grey area. Gates and barriers are large and heavy electrically controlled devices. Incorrect installation, or malfunction during operation may result in tragedy.

They need to be installed and maintained in accordance with best practice and compliance standards. However, there is no official inspection regime and owners, installers and maintenance service providers are legally responsible if found to be at fault when someone is injured or killed. It is believed that of the estimated 500,000 powered gates in the UK only around 10% are safe to use.

iC2 supplies and installs security gates and barriers in full compliance with all relevant legislation as well as specific guidance from the H&SE and best practice. London based, we deliver our services right across the UK. From groundworks required for creating stable mounting points through to high power electrical engineering, all work is carried out to the highest standards.

High standard of safety

All regulations and guidance that enable automated security gates and barriers to operate safely are fully observed, including:

Providing necessary documentation

Measuring closing forces

Fitting obstacle sensors

Preventing people getting trapped

Fitting emergency release mechanisms

Integrating security gates with CCTV to provide remote visual monitoring of entry and exit activity enables higher standards of safety and security to be achieved, anywhere within London or across the UK.

Automated Gates And Barriers

Our automated sliding gates/barriers are usually accessed via a fob or a swipe card system and can also include a visitor intercom. Intercom systems can be either audio, which allows you to confirm who is requesting access, or audio with video supplement, which allows you to see who is trying to gain access to your premises.

Rising Bollards

Rising bollards are the perfect solution if you’re looking to manage loading bays and improve the security of the surrounding area. They can also be used in addition to automated barriers, providing safer access to your premises or blocking unauthorised users from entering or exiting.

Testimonial

Hamleys

CCTV

“The main reason I chose iC2 was the level of service they offered and the professionalism of their engineers. I felt they provided a personal service and highly qualified and efficient engineers. I went away from the big name providers because of the inconsistency with maintenance and the lack of a personal service. I’m very happy we brought in iC2.”
