Bristol University upgrades campus security

by Andy Clutton

As part of an ongoing complete security upgrade throughout the campus, Bristol University has utilised Mul-T-lock’s MTL600 master key suites, designed and installed by Guardian Security Systems in Bristol.

Mul-T-Lock worked with Guardian Security Systems in Bristol, supplying the MTL600 suites to over 20 buildings across campus, all operated on a master key suite basis.

Antony Blundal, Security Services Manager (Systems) at Bristol University said: “University premises present a number of security challenges due to the open nature of the campus sites.  There are different access requirements across all the facilities to consider.

“Working with Guardian Security Systems and Mul-T-Lock we developed a specification using MTL600, which offers high security and is flexible to accommodate these issues and remain cost-effective.  The master key operation is invaluable to keep maintenance to a minimum and the patent protection allows us better control of how many key copies are in existence.”

The security solution is available in various formats to allow Guardian Security Systems to create master keying systems with different locking products across campus, including a range of cylinders, padlocks and locks, providing necessary protection and maximum convenience.

Ian Thresher, Regional Sales Manager of Mul-T-Lock said: “The changing nature of the university ‘ecosystem’ in the UK, with significant developments such as rising tuition fees has many implications, including consequences for the safety and security of students, staff and the public. The legal and reputational issues arising from any failure to protect and secure people, physical assets and information data, are also increasingly severe.  Hence, it is integral for suppliers like Mul-T-Lock and Guardian Security Systems to work closely with universities like Bristol, to understand the bespoke security requirements and install the best solution to protect all those who attend.”
