Creating safer settings for education

We help create safe, secure and accessible education environments in line with the latest regulations

At ASSA ABLOY, we provide you with the perfect blend of solutions and products to address your specific needs. Using our extensive experience in the education sector, we deliver the ultimate tailored solution.

Security and access control are paramount in education settings. Any, nursery, school, college or university must be kept secure to protect students, staff and assets from the threat of unauthorised entry.

Often, it’s also necessary to manage a large number of keys across numerous buildings – a complex task that can lead to security breaches if not properly organised and controlled.

We provide easy-to-use solutions that meet these challenges while ensuring accessibility through inclusive design and regulatory compliance – all while seamlessly integrating with your existing systems.

We understand that every education environment has its own needs. No two projects require the same “one size fits all” solution. That’s why our specification team works closely with you to meet the specific demands of your particular environment.

Safety hardware

The modern education building requires security solutions that combine outstanding safety with access control. At ASSA ABLOY, we lead the way in mechanical hardware that is tailored to the unique challenges of the education setting, including:

  • Panic exit devices , such as our 200 series, which combine attractive design and high-quality engineering to enable a safe and speedy exit in the case of emergency
  • Door closers that ensure ease of opening for younger users due to the CAM-Motion technology integrated within the body
  • Batwing perimeter seals that minimise door opening and closing resistance, making them easier to use and reducing the risk of fingers getting trapped in the doorway
  • Access control solutions that restrict access to certain areas of the building, such as staff rooms and specialist facilities when not accompanied by the correct member of staff, including science labs where harsh chemicals are stored

Solutions for every application

Our product-led solutions help to create spaces that are safe, secure, accessible and inclusive for everyone. Innovative and flexible, our products can be applied to any education setting.
