Town hall door entry

Pictured is the new front door entry at Harpenden Town Council offices in Hertfordshire. The door works with a new phone, for access.

Operating from Harpenden Town Hall, the council originally sourced Amthal, a local, St Albans-based installer, for internal access control. With the installation of a new cloud-based telephone system, the council again called on Amthal to recommend a compatible front door intercom.

Carl Cheevers, Town Clerk at Harpenden Town Council, says: “Harpenden Town Hall aims to deliver a ‘one stop shop’ information point for the wealth of services available in our community. With this in mind it is essential our offices present a welcoming environment for all visitors, but this must be created without compromising on high quality protection for all our staff on site.

“Here is where having Amthal, as a local security support has made all the difference. Not only do they understand our working environment, but also are always on call to respond quickly to maintain our existing access control system within the building and offer advice on new solutions such as the new door entry system, that can help us efficiently enhance our service offering to the community.”

David Williamson, Account Manager at Amthal adds: “Harpenden Town Council like every local authority has a duty of care to its workforce as well as its community, and must continue to consider ways to ensure their continued safety and security whilst at work. This is where working with a local trusted brand like Amthal, with proven experience to deliver on all security and maintenance needs, can provide total and ongoing peace of mind.”
