At Access2, we’re proud to announce that we are now an official member of Secured by Design (SBD) – the UK’s police security initiative dedicated to improving building safety and reducing crime through effective, accredited products.

This membership is more than just a badge, it’s a reflection of our ongoing commitment to real, proven mechanical security.

SBD’s Police Preferred Specification is a recognised standard awarded only to products that meet rigorous security and performance requirements. It’s trusted by law enforcement, architects and developers nationwide as a benchmark for reducing crime through better design and product integrity.

By joining this initiative, Access2’s portfolio now sits proudly alongside other tested and trusted attack-resistant security solutions, providing architects, specifiers and contractors with the confidence they need when selecting hardware that performs under pressure.

Why It Matters:

  • Official police recognition for our security-related products
  • Part of a proven national crime reduction strategy
  • Supporting the creation of safer homes, workplaces, and public spaces
  • Trusted by professionals throughout the construction and security sectors

With Access2 now a part of the SBD community, our customers can be confident that our mechanical locking systems and access solutions deliver more than compliance, they deliver peace of mind.

We look forward to continuing our mission: supplying reliable, robust and accredited mechanical security solutions that help raise standards across the industry.

Access2 Passes ISO 9001 with flying colours – Because quality isn’t just a checkbox

At Access2, quality has never been an afterthought, it’s embedded in everything we do. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we’ve once again passed our ISO 9001 audit and while it’s not our first time, it never loses significance. ISO 9001 is the globally recognised gold standard for Quality Management Systems (QMS). It’s about more than ticking compliance boxes it’s about building smarter, stronger processes that deliver consistent, reliable results to our customers. For Lesley Rhodes, Head of Policy & Process, ISO 9001 is close to the heart.  “We don’t do it for the certificate on the wall. We do it because it challenges us to always be better and that benefits our customers, our people, and the future of Access2.” Why it matters: The whole management team is involved — this isn’t a solo effort. It’s part of our everyday operations — not a once-a-year scramble. We use the audit process as a chance to pause, reflect, and find improvements. Whether it’s refining our product quality, streamlining customer service, or sharpening our decision-making with data, ISO 9001 gives us the tools to lead, not follow. The Power of Process From mechanical security to access control, our clients rely on us to get it right, every time. And with ISO 9001, we’re not just saying we deliver quality, we’re proving it through a tried, tested and internationally recognised system.   In an industry where details matter, we’re proud to show our commitment to constant improvement, customer satisfaction, and doing things properly.   Here’s to raising the bar and then raising it again next year.
