Access Control & Door Entry Systems
Access Control provides a secure, flexible, and easily managed way to regulate who can enter your building, helping to address safeguarding and security needs.
As a Gold Approved Paxton Access Control Installer, we can design, install, commission, and maintain a wide range of systems:
Standalone Access Control – a non-networked system with individual door readers or controllers, programmed locally and accessed via electronic tokens or PINs.
Networked Access Control – centrally managed from a PC, with IP, wireless, or battery-powered door controllers. Permissions and access schedules can be set for individuals, with additional features like roll calls for fire safety, energy management, and CCTV integration.
Paxton10 Access Control & Video Management – a cloud-based platform combining access control and video management, offering full control from anywhere. Bluetooth technology allows users to access via the Paxton Key App, providing a future-proof security solution.
Door Entry Systems can operate independently or integrate with Net2 or Paxton10, enabling staff to enter using electronic tags or PINs while allowing you to verify visitors at the main entrance before granting access.
Other Products and Services from Vanquish Fire Ltd
Emergency Lighting
Emergency lighting is legally required for all commercial premises, and the Responsible Person must ensure compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO).
Vanquish Fire can install, service, maintain, and repair emergency lighting to guarantee that exits and escape routes remain fully illuminated during a power failure, ensuring safe evacuation.
Proper emergency lighting also highlights fire safety signs above doors, along escape routes, and near equipment such as manual call points and fire extinguishers, providing clear instructions for use in an emergency.
Vanquish Fire can also supply and install photoluminescent signage that meets current standards, clearly indicating escape routes, fire door requirements, correct use of fire equipment, and other mandatory safety warnings.
Fire Alarms & Detection Systems
Vanquish Fire can design, install, commission, and maintain all types of fire alarm systems to comply with BS5839.1, including air sampling, beam detection, gas suppression, as well as conventional heat, smoke, and COâ‚‚ point detection on both conventional and addressable panels.
A Fire Risk Assessment identifies the appropriate fire alarm system for your premises and can recommend automatic shutdowns such as gas valves, lift grounding, door control, or automatic alerts to a Central Station notifying keyholders and the Fire Authority. Using this assessment, Vanquish Fire can survey your site, advise on upgrades, install new systems, or guide you on mandatory testing procedures, supporting you at every stage to ensure complete satisfaction.
Fire Alarm Monitoring significantly enhances protection. An unmonitored system can only alert those on-site, whereas a monitored alarm automatically signals the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), which notifies the local fire service and nominated keyholders immediately. This 24/7 monitoring can be critical in preventing serious damage, ensuring quick response even when the building is unoccupied.
Most workplaces are legally required to have fire alarms under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, providing early warning to staff before fire spreads. All fire alarm and detection systems must be serviced and maintained according to BS5839 at least every six months to remain compliant and fully operational.
