Entrance security for higher education establishments
Within a University, life revolves around the campus. A place not just for academic excellence, it becomes a focal point for students as they discover new ideas, friendships and challenges. It is also a place that can be highly attractive to individuals and groups who can threaten the safety and wellbeing of both people and assets on site.
With Gunnebo Entrance Control solutions, a university can ensure the freedom of movement of their students while safeguarding their wellbeing – and explore innovative new ways to engage with the student population too. From perimeter to individual sites, even the most expansive university campus can delive a seamless level of entrance control for their academic community.

Universities require seamless security solutions that protect students and staff while maintaining an open and accessible learning environment. Gunnebo provides integrated security systems designed to streamline campus operations, safeguard unrestricted movement, and adapt to existing infrastructure without disruption.
By incorporating Entrance Control (EC) and Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM), our solutions include perimeter security, controlled access points, and automated entry management, ensuring a balance between accessibility and protection. These measures help manage high foot traffic, protect key facilities, and enhance campus-wide security without compromising freedom of movement.
Gunnebo’s adaptable security solutions enable universities to enhance student safety, improve operational efficiency, and future-proof their campuses against evolving security challenges.
