Secure Solutions for your Education Facility

automatic barriers

Automatic barriers provide secure and efficient traffic control for educational facilities, preventing unauthorized vehicle access while allowing smooth entry for staff and students. These barriers enhance campus security, reduce congestion, and integrate with access control systems for seamless management. Ideal for car parks, restricted areas, and drop-off zones.

Automatic gates provide enhanced security and controlled access to school grounds, ensuring only authorized vehicles and pedestrians enter. These gates help prevent unauthorized access, improve safety, and can integrate with CCTV and intercom systems for added control. Ideal for school entrances, staff parking areas, and student drop-off points.

Steel manual and fire exit doors are crucial for fire safety and security in educational facilities. Fire exit doors ensure a quick and safe evacuation during emergencies, while steel doors protect restricted areas from unauthorized entry. Available with panic hardware, these doors ensure compliance with fire safety regulations.

Aluminium windows and doors provide durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal for educational buildings. Their low-maintenance and weather-resistant properties make them ideal for schools and universities, improving natural lighting while ensuring security and insulation. Custom glazing options enhance safety, noise reduction, and energy efficiency across learning environments.
