Proven expertise in construction access control with installations protecting sites and projects across the UK.
Our team understands the unique security challenges construction sites face from tool theft to workforce management. We've designed and installed access control for major contractors, house builders, and civil engineering projects across the UK. Every system is configured to meet CDM requirements and principal contractor obligations whilst withstanding the harsh conditions of active construction sites.
Every access control system we install supports Construction Design and Management Regulations compliance. We provide comprehensive audit trails for principal contractor duties, integrate with CSCS card verification for competency tracking, maintain accurate site attendance records for emergency procedures, generate reports formatted for H&S files and CDM documentation, and deliver evidence for HSE inspections. Your CDM coordinator will appreciate the clarity and completeness of our access and attendance records.
Construction sites are demanding environments for technology. Our access control systems use IP67-rated weatherproof equipment designed for outdoor use, vandal-resistant housings protecting against damage and theft, wide temperature range components functioning in UK weather conditions, backup power for temporary sites, and proven reliability on active construction projects. We don't install office-grade equipment on sites where it will fail, we specify ruggedised systems that work reliably in mud, dust, and rain.
Construction projects are temporary by nature. We offer rental systems for project duration with no capital outlay, modular equipment that relocates between projects as developments complete, rapid deployment for urgent security requirements, integration with existing site infrastructure, and flexible contracts matching project timelines. Whether you need security for a six-month refurbishment or a five-year infrastructure project, we provide access control solutions that fit your programme and budget.
Common questions about construction access control systems and our implementation services.
Our access control systems are designed to support Construction Design and Management (CDM) Regulations compliance. They provide comprehensive audit trails showing who accessed the site and when, essential for principal contractor duties and H&S file preparation. Systems verify CSCS competency cards ensuring only qualified personnel access appropriate areas, log site inductions and safety briefings for all visitors and new workers, provide real-time site attendance data for emergency procedures, and generate reports for HSE inspections and CDM compliance evidence. All access data is retained according to CDM documentation requirements.
Yes, CSCS card integration is a core feature of our construction access control systems. We verify CSCS card validity when workers tap in, check competency levels against permitted work areas, alert site managers to expired cards or incorrect qualifications, maintain records of card numbers for CDM compliance, and integrate with site induction systems to ensure both safety training and competency are verified before site access. This automation reduces administrative burden whilst ensuring only properly qualified workers access your construction site.
Absolutely. Construction sites demand ruggedised technology designed for harsh conditions. Our access control systems use IP67-rated weatherproof card readers suitable for outdoor installation, vandal-resistant housings protecting against damage and theft, wide temperature range components functioning in UK weather conditions, anti-corrosion materials for coastal and exposed locations, and backup battery power for temporary sites without mains electricity. All equipment is proven on active construction sites across the UK and designed to withstand dust, rain, and physical impact.
Subcontractor management is streamlined through our flexible access control platform. Site managers can issue time-limited PIN codes or temporary cards without requiring an office visit, set access permissions for specific work areas or time periods, automatically revoke access when contracts end or daily limits expire, track subcontractor hours for payment verification, and maintain records of all subcontractor site access for CDM compliance. Our mobile app allows site managers to grant emergency access remotely and manage contractors across multiple projects from one interface.
Yes, emergency response is a critical feature of construction access control. Our systems provide real-time data showing who is currently on site for emergency roll calls, identify persons not accounted for during evacuations, integrate with assembly point check-in stations to confirm safe mustering, provide firefighter access to site occupancy data for rescue operations, and generate immediate reports for emergency services. In the event of a site incident, knowing exactly who is on site and their last known location can be lifesaving. Our systems provide this data instantly to site management and emergency responders.
Construction site theft costs the UK industry millions annually. Access control significantly reduces theft through controlled access to tool stores and equipment cages with individual accountability, audit trails recording every access to secure areas identifying patterns of suspicious access, integration with CCTV providing visual verification of all entry points, time-based restrictions preventing out-of-hours access to valuable materials, and alerts for unusual access patterns or unauthorised attempts. Crucially, the visible presence of access control acts as a deterrent, whilst audit trails provide evidence for insurance claims and police investigations.
Yes, our construction access control systems double as time and attendance recording. They accurately track when workers clock in and out of site, calculate total hours worked for payroll verification, identify late arrivals and early departures for management reporting, export data directly to payroll systems reducing administration, and provide separate tracking for different contractors or cost centres. This eliminates disputes over hours worked, reduces payroll errors, and provides project managers with real-time workforce visibility for resource planning.
We offer flexible solutions for temporary construction projects. You can rent access control equipment for the project duration and return it when complete, purchase modular systems that can be relocated to your next project, transfer access control to the building owner as part of handover for permanent use, or retain audit trail data for CDM file inclusion and warranty periods. We provide full data export in formats suitable for CDM documentation and can maintain archived access records for the required retention period. Many house builders purchase systems that move between developments as plots are completed.
