A Dual-Purpose Challenge

Warhammer World required a solution that combined robust physical security with advanced access control functionality. The door needed to serve as a fire exit, complying with safety standards, while also maintaining tight security and efficient user management through their existing Paxton system.

Transformation

What We Did

To meet stringent fire safety requirements while bolstering access control, a new steel fire exit door was installed, complete with integrated shear locks seamlessly connected to the facility’s Paxton access control system.
