Fort Dunlop is a Grade A mixed use development and architectural icon.

Dorian recommended Axiom Lite from ARAS & RBH Security Group Ltd as Champion Security Installations have installed the Axiom Lite System in a number of customer premises.
Due to the Axiom Lite’s ability to read over 75 card formats the customer was able to keep all of their existing cards and readers when upgrading, making for an extremely cost effective solution. Dorian stated that “Fort Dunlop were looking for a cost effective way to refresh their old 100 door access control system, while causing minimal disruption to their tenants.
The modular structure of the Axiom Lite and its ability to read a vast number of formats made it the ideal choice, enabling us to upgrade the system on a sensible budget without compromising the customer’s security.” Steve Jones, Sales Executive for ARAS & RBH commented “The Axiom Lites versatility was ideal for this application as it provided a simple solution where the customer was able to retro fit without having to go to the full expense of a brand new installation which is ideal in this current price conscious climate.”
