Protecting residents with modern access control & door entry systems

Access control systems for apartment blocks and flats secure communal entrances, protect shared areas and improve resident safety.

We work with property management companies, developers and block managers responsible for both new-build complexes and older residential buildings.

Our team installs door entry systems and intercoms to protect tenants, secure shared areas and prevent unauthorised access.

Every site has different needs, and we adapt installations to suit small blocks of flats through to large multi-building developments.

From London-style high-rises to suburban flats, our access control installations are built to keep residents safe and property secure.

Why do apartment blocks need modern door access control?

Flats and apartment blocks are frequent targets for unauthorised visitors, delivery thefts and break-ins. Without proper access control, residents and their property are exposed to unnecessary risk.

  • Protect residents from unauthorised entry
  • Prevent theft from shared spaces such as bike or bin stores
  • Keep communal areas safe and secure
  • Control access for staff, contractors and cleaners

By investing in access control installation for apartment blocks, management companies and freeholders can create safer living environments.

The benefits of door entry systems for flats

Door entry systems for flats and apartment blocks provide more than security. They improve resident confidence, simplify day-to-day access and help managers control visitor entry.

  • Reduce break-ins and theft in shared areas
  • Improve tenant satisfaction with secure living
  • Control deliveries and visitor access more effectively
  • Lower insurance premiums with better building protection

With professional systems in place, tenants and owners gain peace of mind that their homes are properly protected.

Managing the flow of residents & visitors

Apartment blocks see a constant flow of people — residents, friends, family, cleaners, and delivery drivers. Without systems in place, it’s easy for strangers to slip through unnoticed.

  • Fob door entry systems for residents
  • Video intercoms at main entrances for visitor management
  • Digital entry codes where appropriate
  • Access logs to track movements if required

These solutions help managers keep buildings safe while making everyday entry simple and convenient.

Staff access & managing health & safety

For larger developments, access control systems can integrate with staff management and health and safety requirements.

  • Fob door entry linked to concierge or caretaker attendance
  • Smartphone access to reduce reliance on fobs or keys
  • Monitoring of contractor and cleaner access
  • Compliance with fire safety roll-calls and reporting

By combining building management with access control, property managers can run safer, more efficient developments.

Preventing unauthorised site & building entry

Shared car parks, bike storage and communal entrances are common weak spots in apartment security.

Barriers, ANPR and door entry systems provide effective solutions.

  • Barriers and gates for secure parking
  • ANPR cameras to monitor and control vehicle access
  • Door access systems for bike storage, bin stores and shared entrances
  • Restricted access to plant rooms, lift motor rooms and other sensitive areas

With these protections, property managers reduce risks and ensure only authorised residents and visitors gain access.

Testimonials

We have worked with Safeguard Systems on various utility-scale energy site security projects. The systems they design serve to protect revenue, deter theft and trespass. Their level of technical expertise, and quality of system design is second to none.

Greg Stuttle

GJD Detect

We engaged Safeguard Systems to design and install an internal CCTV and access control fob system to protect our premises, staff and car park. These guys worked with me to give me the system I needed, and worked to challenging deadlines. Great company, top people.

Adrian Barbrooke

Got You Covered

Safeguard Systems worked to upgrade the CCTV system at a site of critical national infrastructure. The service they gave was extremely professional, with a high level of customer service and technical competency at all stages on this sometimes technically challenging project.

Wayne Dietrich

Arc Monitoring

Chris and the team are fantastic, we had them in at work to upgrade the office security, install CCTV and alarms at a new facility and now they have done my home. The job was done quickly and to an extremely high standard. Would recommend to any and all, and I have.

Matt Wilkinson

We used Safeguard Systems to have a video entry system added to our GP Surgery entrances. They were so helpful from our initial site survey right through to installation and handover. A pleasure to deal with and would highly recommend.

Steve and the team are a partner we require services from on a regular basis, they are both cost-effective and efficient to deal with and I would highly recommend them to anyone who requires assistance or support with CCTV or access control requirements.

Alistair Junga

Sand Communications

I've partnerred with Safeguard on several projects before and I wouldn't go anywhere else for a quality security system installation. Our client, a high-end hair salon required a full studio design and fit-out along with a highly effective CCTV system to help protect and watch over their premises.

Guy Richardson

Lakewood Ltd

We are a trustee organisation responsible for a recreational facility and its associated pavilions and buildings. We approached Safeguard Systems to upgrade our security CCTV systems. The customer experience has been first class from start to finish.

Stuart Anstie

Kintbury Recreation Ground

Safeguard Systems fitted a complete camera and intruder beam system for my storage compound, started the job very quickly and explained what was possible clearly. Really happy with the system, the remoter viewing capabilities and I've had no reliability issues either.

Harry Timbrell

Timbrell Farms

I got in touch with Safeguard Systems to help secure our warehouse unit with an intruder alarm and CCTV system. They were incredibly helpful and came out to conduct a survey on our premises when others just wanted to provide a quote over the phone.
