Access Control Systems deliver extensive protection for offices containing sensitive information

Leave a Comment


A secure and reliable access control system is the best solution to make sure that only the right persons have access to potentially sensitive information found within office buildings, such as the new office building for the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO) that is set to be built in Taunton in the near future.

Work is due to get underway through the design stages with the Design Team, Cost Consultants and Main Contractor before seeking Planning permission later this year. The UKHO will meet costs associated with the new office from business receipts as a self-funding agency.

Existing buildings on the site will be demolished, while land at the front of the site will be sold for redevelopment.

The UKHO is due to move into its new office in 2019.

UKHO Chief Executive John Humphrey said: “The redevelopment of UKHO’s Admiralty Way site will see the construction of a new environmentally friendly office to create a modern, collaborative working environment. As well as bringing cost efficiency, the new building will deliver up-to-date technology and working conditions to enable UKHO to sustain a long-term future as a data-centric organisation.”
