The festive season is a time for celebration, extended holidays and busy social calendars. Unfortunately, it is also one of the busiest periods of the year for theft, vandalism and fire-related incidents. With properties often left unattended and businesses operating on reduced hours, taking a proactive approach to fire and security safety is essential to protect people, assets and premises 👇

We were back on site at Margot, Belfast recently to install two additional CCTV cameras, expanding their existing system to suit the evolving needs of the venue.

One of the key benefits of modern CCTV systems is how flexible they are. As a business grows or layouts change, it’s straightforward to add extra cameras or adjust coverage without the need for a full system replacement. This allows security to evolve alongside the business, ensuring the right areas are always protected as requirements change.

While on site, we couldn’t ignore Margot’s absolutely unreal Christmas tree and festive décor - easily one of the best we’ve seen this season. A great atmosphere, paired with the right security in the background, is exactly how busy hospitality venues should operate during this time of year.

Always a pleasure working with the team at Margot.

We’ve just completed the installation of a single-door access control system at Dirty Harry’s Laundrette in Belfast.

Single-door access control is a simple but effective way for businesses to manage who can enter specific areas of their premises. In settings like this, it helps restrict access to staff-only spaces, improves security, and removes the need for traditional keys, which can be lost, copied, or misused.

Instead, authorised access can be managed through key fobs, keypads or similar credentials, giving business owners greater control and peace of mind, especially during busy operating hours.

It’s great to support local Belfast businesses with practical security solutions that fit their day-to-day operations.

If you’re an M&E designer, main contractor, or part of a design & build team, you’ll already know how many moving parts go into a modern commercial building. But one area that still causes unnecessary complexity — and unnecessary cost — is splitting fire and security systems into separate, disconnected packages.

While many providers still list each system individually, the reality on today’s projects is simple:

Integration matters.
It streamlines installation, improves safety and security, reduces maintenance, and makes life easier for the end user.

Here’s what contractors need to know when planning integrated fire & security systems 👇

We’re delighted to share one of our recent projects — the installation of a new access control system at Snuggles Day Nursery in Bangor.

When it comes to childcare settings, safety and security are absolutely paramount. Our team designed and installed a tailored access control solution to help ensure that staff, parents, and children can enjoy a safe, secure environment every day.

Access control systems give nurseries and schools the ability to manage who enters their premises, providing peace of mind for both staff and families while maintaining smooth daily operations.

We’re proud to share a look at our recent access control installation at the beautifully restored Cathedral Buildings in Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter.

This iconic Grade B2 listed building, which was devastated by fire in 2022, has undergone a £3 million restoration to bring it back to life as a vibrant hub for retail, creative, and tech businesses. Being part of its comeback — helping to ensure the safety and security of those who’ll work and visit here — has been an incredible project for our team.

Our new access control system provides modern, reliable security while blending seamlessly with the heritage character of the building. From design to installation, we’ve worked to ensure the system meets the needs of a busy multi-tenant space — offering flexibility, safety, and complete peace of mind.

It’s projects like these that showcase what we do best: combining technical expertise with a commitment to protecting the spaces that matter most in our communities.
