Access Control Installation Kenya

Professional access control installation for doors, gates and turnstiles across Kenya — biometric, card and PIN readers fitted by certified technicians with a free site survey.

Who installs access control in Kenya?

Qyvea Limited installs access control systems across Kenya, from single-door office installs to multi-door residential and industrial projects. Installation starts with a free site survey, a written scope, and an itemised quote — no surprise costs. Every door is tested end-to-end before handover, and administrators are trained on the software before we leave site.

What an installation includes

Readers

Fingerprint, face, card or PIN readers mounted at the appropriate height for the site.

Door hardware

Electric strikes, maglocks, door closers, request-to-exit buttons and break-glass units.

Controllers

Panel-mount or DIN-rail controllers, wired back to the door hardware.

Power

Local power supplies with battery backup so doors fail as intended during outages.

Cabling

Data and power cabling routed cleanly, in trunking or conduit where surface-mounted.

Software

Controller configured, users enrolled, access rules loaded and reporting set up.

Common installation scenarios

  • Single-door install — server room, stockroom or admin entrance.
  • Multi-door office — 5 to 30 doors, one controller, one software platform.
  • Apartment block — main gate, pedestrian gate, parking, service doors. See Access Control for Apartments.
  • Factory / warehouse — staff entrance, production doors, stores and gate.
  • School campus — see Access Control for Schools.
  • Multi-site — several offices managed from one software platform, in Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu or wherever you operate.

Common installation questions

How long does access control installation take?

A single door with a reader and electric lock takes one day. A multi-door office installation takes 2 to 5 days. Larger sites with gates and turnstiles take longer. Qyvea provides a schedule during the site survey.

Do you install access control on existing doors?

Yes. Most access control installations are retrofitted to existing doors. We modify the door only where needed — to fit an electric strike, a maglock or a door closer.

Can you install access control without disrupting my business?

Yes. Work is scheduled outside business hours or during quiet periods. Doors are only offline for the shortest time possible and are tested before handover.

How much does access control installation cost in Kenya?

Cost depends on the number of doors, reader type, cabling distances and whether new locks or controllers are needed. Qyvea provides a free site survey and itemised quote before work begins.

Do you provide training after installation?

Yes. Administrators are trained on adding users, assigning access levels, pulling reports and handling day-to-day changes. Documentation is provided at handover.
