Project Overview
CIF Security was engaged to design and install a modern video door entry system for a commercial property seeking to improve access control, visitor management, and overall site security.
The client required a reliable solution that would allow staff to visually identify visitors before granting access, reducing the risk of unauthorised entry while enhancing convenience for employees and visitors alike.
The Challenge
The property relied on a traditional audio-only entry system that provided limited security and no visual verification of visitors.
Key concerns included:
- Inability to visually identify visitors before granting access
- Unauthorised individuals attempting to gain entry
- Limited control over deliveries and contractors
- Requirement for improved security without impacting daily operations
- Need for a professional solution suitable for a customer-facing environment
The client wanted a system that would provide greater control over access while offering a seamless user experience.
Our Solution
Following a comprehensive site survey, CIF Security designed and installed a bespoke video door entry system tailored to the client’s operational requirements.
The installation included:
- High-definition video door entry panel
- Internal colour display monitor
- Two-way audio communication
- Remote door release functionality
- Integrated electronic locking system
- Visitor call management features
- System programming and commissioning
The chosen solution allows staff to clearly see and communicate with visitors before authorising access, significantly enhancing site security.
Installation Process
Our engineers completed the installation with minimal disruption to the client’s day-to-day activities.

- Detailed site assessment and system design
- Installation of external video entry equipment

Outcome
