Access control in Lurgan, in short
Industrial units on the estates around Carn and Kernan, and shared office buildings and apartment blocks in and around Lurgan town centre, run their doors on Paxton access control fitted by Coast Data Security. Networked fobs, keypads, proximity readers and door entry mean a manager reviews every door from a single system, not a set of disconnected locks.
Local knowledge
Access control for Lurgan's mix of units and homes.
Lurgan sits within the wider Craigavon urban area, and the units around Carn and Kernan set the pattern for most of the industrial work we do here: a keypad securing the workshop floor, kept apart from a trade counter that visitors still walk straight into, with every entry logged so a manager knows exactly who clocked in and out without needing to ask.
Closer to Lurgan Park and the main shopping streets, several older commercial buildings have been carved up into smaller units under one roof, which is where our office and retail work concentrates. Rather than one lock for the whole building, each occupant gets a fob that only opens their own space, and the landlord keeps a single view across the lot.
Lurgan also has a growing number of apartment blocks and converted residential buildings, particularly around the town centre, where a managing agent typically wants a video entry panel on the communal door tied to resident fobs, so a new resident can be added or an old one removed without a locksmith visit.
- Industrial and trade units with separate staff and counter access
- Shared office buildings with per-tenant fobs and one visitor log
- Apartment communal doors with resident fobs and video entry
- School and community buildings with staged access by area
- Networked logs so managers can review access without visiting the site
Aftercare that keeps working
The door, the camera, the gate, one contract.
Because we also install CCTV, intruder alarms and gate automation, a Lurgan business or apartment block can have the camera at its entrance, the reader on its door and a barrier at its car park or yard running from one installer and, where the hardware allows it, one shared app, rather than separate systems from separate contractors.
A good part of our Lurgan work is upgrading existing systems, whether that is adding a reader to a second door on the same site, bringing video door entry to a block that only had a buzzer, or replacing an old keypad with a networked Paxton system that keeps a proper log. We say plainly at the survey what is worth keeping.

Why us in Lurgan
One installer for security, not just for doors.
An industrial unit or apartment block in Lurgan usually needs more than a door reader on its own, so we also fit the CCTV, intruder alarms and gate automation that tend to sit beside it, letting the entrance camera, the door reader and any yard barrier be planned as one system rather than three separate purchases from three separate firms. Every installer is fully qualified and carries comprehensive public liability insurance, and your team leaves the handover genuinely able to run it.
How it works in Lurgan
From your enquiry to a working system
- 1
Free look at your site
We visit your Lurgan premises, count the doors and users, and talk through how staff, tenants or residents actually move through the building on an ordinary day.
- 2
A costed recommendation
You receive a proposal covering readers, keypads or intercoms and how doors are networked together, priced clearly with no obligation to go any further.
- 3
Cables first, disruption last
Cables are run to each door and reader position on a schedule built around a working unit, office or occupied apartment block, keeping disruption to a minimum.
- 4
Fitted and put through its paces
Readers and controllers are fitted and brought onto the network, users loaded on, and every door is run through its paces until release and logging both check out.
- 5
Trained, then supported
A short session leaves your staff able to add, remove and check users unassisted, and we stay available afterwards for extra doors, extra readers or servicing as the premises grows.

Access control in Lurgan, your questions.
Answers for offices, industrial units and apartment blocks across Lurgan.
How much does access control cost in Lurgan?
Whether it is one door on a retail unit or a full apartment block, the price depends on what we see on site, not a standard rate. You get that figure in writing, with no obligation attached.
Can you fit access control into an industrial unit that is already trading?
Yes. We schedule cabling and installation around your operating hours, fitting staff access separately from the counter or trade area so business carries on as normal.
Do you cover the industrial estates as well as the town centre?
Yes. The estates around Carn and Kernan are covered just as thoroughly as buildings closer to Lurgan town centre.
Can an apartment managing agent add or remove residents themselves?
Yes. Training at handover means the managing agent can add a new resident or cancel an old fob directly, without waiting on a call-out.
We already have an old keypad system. Can you upgrade it rather than replace it?
Often, yes. Extra doors or readers can usually be added to an existing setup, or a basic keypad can be moved onto a networked Paxton system with a proper log. The survey settles what is worth keeping.
Can you set up staged access for a school or community building?
Yes. Different groups can be limited to the parts of the building that concern them, staff included, with every door logging who used it and when.
Can access control work with our CCTV?
Yes. We fit CCTV as well as access control, so a camera over your yard or entrance and the door reader can be checked against each other rather than run as separate, unconnected systems.
A fob has been lost. What is the next step?
Cancel it in the system so it stops working right away, then issue a replacement. Nothing about the door itself has to change, which is a real advantage over a traditional key system where a lost key means new locks.
How long does installation take in Lurgan?
A single door or communal entrance is normally a day's work. Multi-door buildings and industrial units need longer, with a realistic timeframe set out in the written quote rather than left vague.
Can you fit access control at a shop with a staff-only rear door?
Yes. We fit the keypad or reader on the back-of-house entrance, leaving the public-facing shop front and its standard lock untouched.
Can you maintain a system that a previous installer put in?
Generally, yes. Servicing, extending and upgrading existing Paxton systems and most other makes across Lurgan is something we do regularly, including systems that have outgrown their original design.
Will access control work alongside a gate at a yard or unit entrance?
Yes. Gate automation sits alongside our access control work, so a barrier at a yard or unit entrance and the reader on the building door can be planned and fitted together.
