Coordinating access control with safe evacuation

We bring owners, designers, security personnel and facilities teams together early to agree how security and fire safety measures will work in practice.

At a shared service entrance, for example, security staff need space to check deliveries, while the same route may also provide access for fire and rescue vehicles.

Agreeing where checks will take place, how emergency access will be kept clear and who will manage the entrance once the facility is in use avoids conflicts later.
