Real products, live prices, in stock now ## Key takeaways - Staff-only doors - A visitor routine - Entry records - Peace of mind ## The problem A maternity ward is a place where families want certainty: only staff and visitors who should be there can enter. A controlled door, with staff cards or fingerprints and a visitor routine, gives families that certainty and gives staff a record of who came and went. **Staff-only doors**: Cards or fingerprints open them. **A visitor routine**: Visitors are admitted by staff. **Entry records**: Who entered and when. **Peace of mind**: Families feel safe. ## How it works How it works The need or the riskSomething happens in a maternity ward The system noticesAccess control picks it up The right person is toldAt the desk, on a phone or on a screen Staff respondKnowing where and what A record is keptWhere the system keeps one, for review ## What to check before you buy | Check | Why it matters | | --- | --- | | Door types | Main door and any side doors | | Fire exits | Locks must release safely; plan with your fire adviser | | Visitor routine | Intercom or reception admit | | Power failure | What happens to locks when power fails | | Maintenance | A plan, spares and a response time agreed before you buy | | Your own requirements | Confirm them with your regulator and advisers | ## How we set it up 1. **Walk a maternity ward**: We note every door, room, route and risk. 2. **Draw the plan**: Where access control goes and what it covers. 3. **Cable and power**: Cabling, power and backup to every point. 4. **Fit and configure**: Installed, set up and labelled. 5. **Test and train**: We test every point and train your staff. ## What we supply We design, supply and install access control for hospitals, clinics and care homes.
