Who's Walking Into Your School Right Now?

Visitor management, safeguarding compliance, perimeter security, IT protection, and fire safety across multiple buildings — educational campuses carry security obligations that most systems weren’t designed for. Ours are.

Visitor & contractor access management

Campus-wide CCTV systems

Safeguarding-compliant visitor control

IS 3218 fire detection for educational occupancy

Dublin & Leinster

The Three Security Gaps Most Common in Irish Schools

What's typically missing or wrong

No controlled entry at main reception — visitors walk straight in · After-hours alarm covering only part of the site — IT rooms unprotected · Fire alarm panel not at the right IS 3218 category for educational occupancy with students present

What We Provide

Access Control — Visitor & Contractor Management

Control main entrance access via audio/video door entry at every public-facing entrance. Manage contractor and visitor access with time-limited credentials. Restrict server rooms, staff areas, and IT storage to authorised personnel only.

CCTV — Site-Wide Coverage

HD CCTV at all entrances, perimeter boundaries, car parks, corridors, and common areas. Video analytics for perimeter breach detection and after-hours monitoring. Footage retained to 30-day minimum. GDPR-compliant installation with appropriate signage and data protection documentation.

Intruder Detection — After-Hours Site Protection

Perimeter and internal alarm protection for the full campus. Graded systems meeting insurance requirements. 24/7 monitoring with response. Flexible arming schedules accommodating different building usage patterns.

Fire Detection & Emergency Lighting — Campus Scale

IS 3218 addressable fire detection systems covering all buildings on campus, with a central or networked panel arrangement. IS 3217 emergency lighting on all escape routes. Zoned evacuation protocols supporting phased or full-campus evacuation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What visitor management systems are appropriate for Irish schools?

Audio/video door entry at main reception, combined with an access control system and visitor log, provides the controlled entry management that satisfies Tusla requirements and school safeguarding policies. We design these systems for schools of all sizes.

How should CCTV be managed in a school environment given GDPR?

Schools are subject to GDPR and must have appropriate signage, a data retention policy, and controlled access to footage. CCTV should not be placed in areas where privacy expectations are high (changing rooms, toilets). We advise on compliant positioning and data handling as part of every school CCTV installation.

What fire safety standards apply to educational buildings in Ireland?

Educational buildings require IS 3218 fire detection to the appropriate system category for the occupancy. Large campuses typically require addressable systems with zoned evacuation capability. Emergency lighting must meet IS 3217 with adequate duration and coverage for the student population.

Can you install security across multiple buildings on a campus?

Yes. We design networked security systems spanning multiple buildings on a campus, with centralised management from a single platform.

How do you manage security installation in a working school?

We plan all major installation work during school holidays where possible and carry out intrusive works out of hours during term time. We work closely with the school’s facilities team to minimise disruption.
