Paxton Door Entry Solutions
Paxton door entry systems are modular, which means we can build the right setup for your building — without forcing you into a one-size-fits-all package.
Audio Door Entry (Simple & Reliable)
Audio door entry is the most straightforward setup.
A visitor presses the call button. Someone inside answers on a handset or desk unit. If everything checks out, the door is released.
Best suited to:
- Smaller offices
- Staff-only entrances
- Buildings where video isn’t necessary
- Sites wanting maximum reliability with minimal complexity
Why people choose it:
- Clean, dependable, and easy to use
- Lower cost than video systems
- Fewer moving parts - ideal where simplicity matters
- Sites wanting maximum reliability with minimal complexity
Video Door Entry (Extra Visibility & Control)
Video door entry adds a camera and screen to the same process.
You can see who’s at the door before answering – useful when you’re dealing with deliveries, visitors, or shared access points.
Best suited to:
- Reception-led offices
- Shared buildings
- Managed properties
- Anywhere staff want visual confirmation before releasing the door
Why people choose it:
- Clear visibility improves security and confidence
- Reduces guesswork for reception teams
- Particularly useful where multiple people answer the door
Integrated Door Entry & Access Control
This is where Paxton really shines.
Door entry can be combined with:
- Key fobs or cards
- Keypads
- Timed access rules
- Different permissions for staff, cleaners, or trades
So instead of everyone buzzing in through reception, authorised users can come and go without interrupting the working day.
Best suited to:
- Busy offices
- Multi-tenant buildings
- Sites with regular staff movement
- Buildings already using access control
Our Door Controls Installation Process
Simple, seamless, and designed for you.
We keep Paxton door entry installations straightforward and considered – tailored to the site and how it’s used, not rushed or cookie-cutter.
1. Site assessment & discussion
We start by understanding the building, how access works now, and what you actually want the door entry system to achieve. This includes entrances, door types, how people move through the space, and whether video or access control is needed. It also allows us to assess cabling routes and any existing infrastructure before decisions are made.
2. System design & recommendations
Based on the site, we design a Paxton door entry system that makes sense. This covers the choice of entry panel, handsets or screens, access methods, and how the system will integrate with door locks or access control. Everything is explained clearly, with sensible recommendations and no unnecessary extras.
3. Professional installation
The system is installed neatly and discreetly by experienced engineers. Care is taken with positioning, cabling, and overall finish, as well as minimising disruption while work is carried out. Because door entry is something people see and use every day, installation quality matters.
4. Configuration & testing
Once installed, the system is fully configured and tested. Audio and video clarity, door release behaviour, access permissions, and safety features are all checked thoroughly to ensure the system works reliably and consistently before sign-off.
5. Handover & support
You’ll be shown how to use the system confidently, from answering calls to releasing doors and managing access where applicable. Ongoing support is available if you need changes, adjustments, or help in the future – without pressure or unnecessary commitments.
Take me to…
WiFi Networks
Reliable Wi-Fi starts with proper design. We plan coverage, capacity, and placement based on how your space is actually used – not guesswork. The result is fast, stable Wi-Fi that works quietly in the background, even under pressure.
Cabling Infrastructure
Cabling is the foundation everything else relies on. We install structured copper and fibre cabling with longevity, performance, and compliance in mind – keeping networks tidy, testable, and ready to grow without constant rework.
CCTV Installations
Modern CCTV is about clarity, coverage, and control. We design and install camera systems that give you clear visibility, secure recording, and remote access – without cluttering your site or overcomplicating the setup.
WiFi Surveys
A Wi-Fi survey replaces assumptions with certainty. By mapping coverage, interference, and real-world usage, we design Wi-Fi that works reliably across your space.
FAQs
Straight answers, no jargon.
How much does a Paxton door entry system cost?
The cost depends on the type of system, the number of doors, and how it’s installed. A simple audio door entry system for a single door will cost less than a multi-door video system with access control integration. After a site visit, we’ll provide a clear quote based on what’s actually required – no vague ranges or surprise extras.
Do I need video door entry, or is audio enough?
Audio door entry is often more than enough for smaller offices or staff-only entrances. Video door entry is useful where visual confirmation adds value, such as shared buildings, reception-led offices, or sites with frequent deliveries. We’ll help you decide based on how the entrance is used, not on upselling features.
Can door entry be combined with key fobs or keypads?
Yes. Paxton systems are designed to integrate door entry with access control. This allows authorised users to enter using fobs, cards, or keypads, while visitors still use the entry panel. It’s a common setup in busy offices and shared buildings.
Does the system rely on the internet?
Most Paxton door entry systems operate locally and do not rely on an internet connection for basic operation. If mobile or app-based answering is required, an internet connection may be needed, which we’ll discuss and design appropriately.
Can you install door entry in older buildings?
Yes. Older buildings are very common, especially across Devon. During a site visit we’ll assess door hardware, power, and cabling routes, and design a solution that works with the building rather than against it. Where limitations exist, we’ll explain them clearly before installation.
How disruptive is the installation?
Installations are planned to minimise disruption. For most sites, work can be carried out during normal working hours, and access is maintained wherever possible. We’ll agree timing in advance so there are no surprises on the day.
What happens if a fob is lost or someone leaves?
Lost fobs or cards can be disabled quickly without changing locks. Access for former staff or contractors can be removed immediately, which is one of the key benefits of an integrated access control syste
Can the system be expanded later?
Yes. Paxton systems are modular, so it’s straightforward to add doors, users, video entry, or additional access rules later. We design with future expansion in mind where possible, even if you’re starting with a simple setup.
