Company Description
Access Automation Ltd is a market leading supplier of barriers, gates, road blocks, turnstiles and fencing to the retail, commercial and industrial sectors. We have provided access solutions to major international blue-chip organisations up and down the United Kingdom. Working on numerous construction projects has brought us a wealth of experience in the sector which enables us to offer an unbeatable range of services, from design through to groundworks, electronics installation and even on-site training. So whether you need an access solution for construction, security, safety or access management, our expert team of designers and engineers will produce the goods within budget. Where else would you get innovative products, a professional service, and AESIF industry approval?

Access Automation Ltd was set up in 1988 to supply the local residential electric gate market. Our reputation for high-quality products soon earned us contracts in the commercial sector, and since then we have never looked back. We have worked on some of the most prestigious projects of the last twenty years, including the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff and Kew Gardens. Access Automation still offers the same great professional service on both domestic and commercial projects. We also provide maintenance contracts and an emergency call out facility to ensure your access systems are working as they should be.


Traffic Barriers

Access Automation Ltd supplies traffic barriers in either electro-mechanical or electro-hydraulic drive format. These are ideal for vehicle control on commercial sites, especially in car parks. Not only do we supply these great products, but we’ll also install them for you if required. They can be controlled using a variety of manual or electrically operated systems and have an opening speed setting of 2-12 seconds. Manuel barriers employ counterbalanced vertical lift boom arms, while electrical barriers are supplied by a 240V single phase power source. Beam sizes span from 2 meters up to 8 meters and can be finished in a choice of colours or in simple stainless steel.

Road Blockers

Road blockers are an ideal heavy duty method of preventing vehicle access to sites for protection of property from theft. With designs varying from 'street furniture' style to industrial heavy duty units, our road blockers offer fast, reliable and secure access to and from your site. So how do they work? Hydraulic rams power a rising kerb which prevents unwanted vehicle access in manned and unmanned vehicle parks. An innovative programmable logic controller co-ordinates the hydraulics, access control and traffic light signals. Access control options include proximity cards, radio, tokens, keypads or intercoms. Available in a range of widths and heights, these are the ideal deterrent against even the most determined intruder.

Commercial Gates

Access Automation offers both sliding and swing gates for our commercial customers. Sliding gates are available in a variety of styles to match your existing security fencing. Offering a high level of security, these gates may have an operating speed ranging from 10 to 20 metres per minute. At sites where space is limited, tracked sliding gates are ideal, while cantilevered gates allow the crossing of uneven terrain and kerb stones. Swing gates are suitable for access openings up to 14 metres and are available in double leaf configuration. We stock a wide range of standard gates, but we'll also produce an innovative swing gate based on your specifications. Both Swing Gates and Sliding Gates come with numerous access control options.

Turnstiles

Available to be fitted internally or externally, our turnstiles are a practical method of controlling pedestrian access to your site. We offer a range of models, from standard manual units to high-spec automated internal units, offering a flexible approach to the issues of aesthetics, security and functionality. These mild steel or stainless steel constructions with three-arm 120 degree rotas or four-arm 90 degree rotas have been used at a number of different sites, including industrial premises, transportation areas, airports, offices and leisure centres. All of our access control systems can be used in conjunction with our turnstiles.

Access Control

Our in-house team of design engineers are continually developing innovative, tailor-made pedestrian access systems. These have opening speeds as fast as 3.5 seconds and feature built-in safety mechanisms. Our access solutions are controlled by numerous systems, including Radio, hardwired intercoms, wireless intercoms, keypads, proximity cards, swipe cards, vehicle detection ground loop systems, and long range vehicle proximity systems.
