Security & Technology Priorities for London Hotels
Guest & Public Area Surveillance
Lobbies, corridors, lifts, car parks, and public areas require comprehensive CCTV coverage, protecting guests, deterring crime, and providing evidence in the event of incidents or liability claims. HD and 4K cameras deliver the resolution needed to identify individuals clearly.
Back-of-House Access Control
Restricting access to kitchen, laundry, plant rooms, offices, and storage areas to authorised staff only, using Paxton keycard systems with role-based permissions. Instant credential updates when staff join, leave, or change department, with full access logging.
Guest WiFi & Staff Networks
Reliable, high-performance guest WiFi is now a core guest expectation. Enterprise managed wireless covering all rooms, corridors, and public areas , with separate VLANs isolating guest and staff networks, on a single cloud-managed infrastructure.
Perimeter & Out-of-Hours Security
Intruder alarm systems for secured areas, back-of-house zones, offices, storage, with 24/7 professional monitoring. External perimeter cameras covering delivery areas, car parks, and service entrances, with remote access for the security management team.

Hotel Security FAQs
How many CCTV cameras does a London hotel need?
A boutique hotel (30–50 rooms) might need 20–40 cameras. A larger property (100+ rooms) may require 60–150+. We produce a detailed camera schedule specific to your property during the free site survey before any hardware is specified.
How does access control work in a hotel?
Access control in hotels typically secures back-of-house and staff areas, not guest rooms. Paxton manages staff access rights by role, with instant updates when staff join, leave, or change department. Video entry intercoms handle service and delivery entrances remotely from the front desk.
Can CCTV, access control, and WiFi be integrated into one system?
Yes. We install all security and network infrastructure as a single integrated project, IP CCTV on the managed network, Paxton access control linked to camera footage, and managed wireless for guests and staff. One contractor, one project, one system.
Can you work in an operational hotel without disrupting guests?
Yes, we have extensive experience working in live hotels. We plan works around occupancy, schedule disruptive activities during low-occupancy periods or overnight, and coordinate with hotel management throughout.
What managed WiFi do you recommend for London hotels?
We typically specify Cisco Meraki or Ubiquiti enterprise platforms, selected based on property size and management requirements. Every project starts with a professional wireless site survey. We configure separate VLANs for guest WiFi, staff networks, IP CCTV, and VoIP.
