Gates and Barriers Access Control

Gates and barriers act as the initial line of defence at the approach of a property – providing robust protection against unauthorised access, day and night.

From large venues and arenas, to corporate, industrial and government buildings, A Plus Security are experts in installing and maintaining a range of barriers and gates to fit your site requirements.

Types of security barriers and gates:

  • Swing or Pedestrian Gates
  • Automatic or Manual Barriers
  • Sliding Gates
  • Bi-folding gates
  • Motorised shutters
  • Access gates using access control readers and/or intercoms

Why invest in gates and barriers?


  • Traffic and pedestrian control - Controlling movement and flow of traffic is vital to preventing an area from over-crowding or unauthorised access - especially important for large venues that operate with limited numbers of security staff. Gates and barriers provide a seamless and automated alternative to manually checking in and out guests.
  • Robust perimeter security - This form of access control can act as a visual deterrent alone, minimising the risk of crime by sending out signals that the area is monitored and secure. Gates and barriers provide all-round protection, day and night, and can optimise the security of the site as a whole when integrated with other systems such as CCTV.
  • Increased efficiency + cost - Gates and barriers can take pressure off organisations by creating scope to reduce numbers of staff. They also eliminate the need to manually check paper or digital passes, keeping the pace of traffic moving quickly, and allowing staff to undertake other duties.
  • Can be fully integrated - Gates and barriers can be fully integrated with other security systems to provide a more well-rounded security approach, including intercom systems to gain remote access. As well as integration, A Plus Security can design a fully bespoke system to fulfil specific requirements and challenges.

What our
clients have to
say about us

A Plus provides an excellent return on investment, not just through the solution installed, but the general experience they offer from pre-install to post-install and right through to the maintenance of the system. We knew we had made the right decision with A Plus as they offered a comprehensive and detailed proposal and project plan. The skill level of their engineers was a pleasant surprise with their knowledge of IT and networks, as well as electronic security, which made dealing with our internal IT team very smooth. Apart from that, the fact we never had to chase them for anything was a very nice surprise!

International Group of Schools

We chose A-Plus Security to carry out the upgrade of our electronic security systems for our 9 colleges and they have far exceeded our expectations in their approach to the projects. We are a UK wide organisation where the planning and mobilising of these major project around term times is time critical and A Plus Security have been nothing short of fantastic in the communication, there design proposals, openness to last minute changes, pre and post-sales support and their management of 3rd party companies and IT services. We would highly recommend A Plus Security to any organisation who are looking to install or upgrade their systems.

Nationwide Groups of Colleges

A Plus Security exceeded all expectations, following a late award of the contract due to a different contractor pulling out. All fire and security works were completed when requested and signed off on finish, with no issues noted. We have continued working with A Plus on following projects and would fully recommend them.
