Gallagher Security

Gallagher Security is part of Gallagher, a privately held family business headquartered in Hamilton, New Zealand. Its About page traces the company to 1938, when Bill Gallagher Senior built an early electric fence, and says the security business has designed and manufactured access control, perimeter and intruder alarm products for more than 35 years. Gallagher reports about 1,300 staff, more than 20,000 security customers in over 140 countries, and reinvestment of 15% of annual revenue in research and development. It lists ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certifications, and says hardware and software are built at its headquarters.

Its airport page groups the offer into four layers. Access control and credential management assigns zone- and role-based access for staff, visitors and contractors, with multi-factor and biometric options. Perimeter protection pairs high-tensile monitored pulse fencing with fence-mounted sensors and fence controllers that pinpoint the breach zone and can trigger lights, cameras and sirens, with GIS map views. Vehicle access uses ANPR and RFID. All of it runs in Command Centre, the central platform, which supports multi-site and multi-tenant setups, integrated video, offline operation and audit trails for compliance reporting.

Gallagher does not publish pricing; the site routes buyers to a demo request and a downloadable airport brochure, and an online product catalogue lists fence controllers, gate and fence hardware, sensors and a perimeter starter kit. Sydney Airport appears among its case studies. Its airport page stresses that systems can be aligned to national aviation regulations and keep running during network outages, which matters at small fields with limited IT support. Gallagher Security is not related to Arthur J. Gallagher & Co., the insurance broker listed separately in Aviation Insurance.
