Steel doors for property

by Mark Rowe

The London-based installer Delta Security has fitted new steel, fire-rated security doors and an access control system to combat break-ins at a commercial property managed by Property Initiatives Management Ltd. The property, in Shoreditch east London, is home to ten businesses and had become the target of thefts and burglaries. After an independent security survey, steel security doors were proposed. Derrick Samuel, Building Manager at Property Initiatives Management Ltd, says he approached Delta having worked with the company previously:

He said: “The landlord works with another supplier, but I wanted to employ Delta Security as my experience with the company is that they are reliable, professional and provide excellent customer service.”

The fire-rated double steel doors were installed with a twin mag pull door handle. The double doors are for wider openings, described as fire-resistant, tamper- and weather-proof, as well as Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) compliant to ensure excellent access for disabled employees and visitors. The company also installed a Paxton access control fob key system that Derrick is able to manage remotely, enabling or disabling access to the key fobs on the system as and when required.

“Delta visited the property to conduct a survey, and it was agreed that the Delta fire-rated doubled steel doors were the best solution for this site,” says Derrick. “The property is now as secure as it can be.”

Derrick manages a portfolio of 30 properties, making the reliability of third-party contractors crucial:

“Delta puts the customer at the centre of a project and it shows in the excellent service they deliver. Projects are completed within a given time frame and engineers are all polite and professional. This is essential in a job like mine and for this reason I would highly recommend Delta.”
