Case Study: Lynwood Care Centre achieves safer, simpler access control with Grosvenor Technology

Lynwood Care Centre simplifies access control across 30 keypads with Grosvenor Technology

Lynwood Care Centre, a care home in the UK operated by the charity BEN, faced significant security challenges with its original access control system. The system was not networked, requiring 30 keypads to be individually reprogrammed for any update, and it had installation flaws that compromised safety. To address this, they worked with vendor Grosvenor Technology and security experts FTL Secure Solutions to implement a new access control solution.

Grosvenor Technology implemented a 100% browser-based access control system that could be easily managed from any PC on Lynwood's network. The solution integrated with the facility's fire and automatic door systems and simplified administration for staff. The result was a state-of-the-art, failsafe security system that made residents and families feel secure, saved nursing staff considerable time on security administration, and was backed by Grosvenor's excellent aftercare support.
