Gunnebo Entrance Control has acquired Shuretech Ltd, incorporating its field engineering expertise and service operations into the company’s UK activities.

Founded in 2011, Shuretech positions itself as a provider of installation, maintenance and lifecycle support for gates, barriers, turnstiles, doors and shutters across the South East of England.

The company is reportedly recognised for its technically skilled engineers, structured preventative maintenance programmes and responsive fault resolution.

Combining practical expertise

Carl Graham and Lewis Hakesley joint owners of Shuretech Ltd said: “Service quality and technical competence have always been central to our business.

“Our engineers work closely with customers to ensure systems operate safely and effectively throughout their lifecycle.

“Joining Gunnebo Entrance Control allows us to extend this capability further, combining our practical field expertise with broader engineering resources while maintaining the standards and responsiveness our clients expect.”

Entrance and perimeter control

The acquisition is said to reflect the increasing importance of dependable service from initial design and specification through to long-term aftercare in entrance and perimeter control.

Integrating Shuretech’s established service infrastructure can reportedly enhance Gunnebo Entrance Control’s ability to deliver consistent maintenance, rapid diagnostics and documented compliance assurance through a directly managed UK engineering team.

“Expanding our regional service”

Jamie Keyte, Regional Director UK & Ireland at Gunnebo Entrance Control commented: “This acquisition marks an important step in expanding our regional service presence.

“Shuretech’s team brings valuable local expertise and customer relationships that will support our continued growth across the UK & Ireland.”

“European growth strategy”

Blanca Sebastia, EVP Commercial Excellence & GM Europe, Gunnebo Entrance Control added: “Expanding our service footprint in the UK is a key step in delivering our European growth strategy.

“Shuretech brings strong local capability that helps us scale a more consistent service model across priority markets.”

The acquisition is said to represent a shared commitment to maintaining high standards of service delivery and long-term customer support in the UK market.
