Project Overview
CIF Security was commissioned to design and install an automated door and sensor security system for a busy commercial premises seeking to improve security, control access, and enhance operational efficiency.
The client required a solution that would allow authorised personnel to enter and exit the building safely while maintaining strict control over access points during business hours and after-hours periods. The existing manual entry system provided limited control and lacked the ability to monitor access activity.
The Challenge
The client faced several security concerns, including:
- Unauthorised access through frequently used entry points
- Lack of visibility over who was entering and leaving the premises
- The need for hands-free access for staff and visitors
- Compliance with health and safety requirements
- The requirement to integrate with existing security infrastructure
The solution needed to be reliable, easy to use, and scalable for future expansion.
Our Solution
Following a comprehensive site survey, CIF Security designed and implemented a bespoke automated access solution consisting of:
- Automated door operators
- Motion and presence detection sensors
- Safety sensors to prevent accidental closure
- Secure access control integration
- Emergency release mechanisms
- Exit request devices
- System programming and commissioning
The system was carefully configured to ensure smooth operation while maintaining the highest levels of security and user safety.

Our engineers carried out the installation with minimal disruption to the client’s daily operations. The project included:
- Full site assessment and planning
- Installation of automated door mechanisms
- Positioning and calibration of motion sensors
