School Security Systems for Educational Institutions
Amax Fire & Security specialises in advanced school security systems tailored for educational environments across the UK. From nurseries and primary schools to colleges and universities, we design and install bespoke solutions that protect pupils, staff, and property. Our systems combine intelligent access control, high-definition CCTV, intruder detection, and fire safety into one seamless network. With decades of experience and industry-leading technology, we help educational institutions mitigate risk, improve safeguarding, and meet their duty of care.
Comprehensive Security for Educational Institutions
Every school or university campus faces unique safety challenges. With hundreds or even thousands of students, faculty, and visitors on-site each day, it’s essential to implement systems that are robust, flexible, and compliant. At Amax, we conduct in-depth site surveys to understand your vulnerabilities and deliver a tailored security package that ensures complete peace of mind.
Our education-focused solutions include:
- CCTV systems to monitor entry points, corridors, playgrounds, and external areas
- Intruder alarms to protect property after hours
- Integrated fire detection and alarm systems
- Smart access control to monitor who enters and exits the premises
- Cross-campus management tools to oversee multiple buildings or sites
From single-site nurseries to multi-campus universities, our systems are scalable and designed to grow with your institution.
School Security Access Control: Safety Starts at the Door
Access control is a vital part of modern school security. Our systems allow you to restrict and monitor movement throughout your educational property. You can prevent unauthorised access, secure staff-only areas, and even manage attendance through linked registration systems.
Our school access control features include:
- Keycard or biometric entry systems
- Integration with student databases or MIS systems
- Time-controlled access for extracurricular activities or evening classes
- Secure segregation between public, student, and administrative zones
- Flexible permissions for contractors, visitors, and third-party users
Whether you’re running a small independent school or a large college campus, our school security access control systems provide control, accountability, and peace of mind.
