Amthal is working with Hawksmoor through an ambitious growth plan throughout the UK, providing fire and security services for all new and inherited buildings.

Hawksmoor, a British steakhouse and cocktail bar, which has been described as ‘flawless’ by The Times restaurant critic Giles Coren, and one of the best restaurant groups in the country by Tom Parker Bowles, is on the cusp of opening its tenth restaurant in quick succession.

Growing with the company is Amthal Fire & Security; always ready to design, deliver and install security solutions including smart CCTV systems alongside all fire alarms for the ultimate safety of staff and customers.

Says Alex McLauchlan, Finance Director at Hawksmoor Group: “Amthal Fire & Security has excelled in the delivery of innovative security solutions, even when the buildings we have purchased have existing systems and supply companies already in place.

“The team works seamlessly around our timetables to ensure fire and security systems are planned into the design of the restaurant, installed with minimal disruption and maintained with a 24/7 priority response. Amthal is a company on which Hawskmoor has come to rely as we grow our restaurant portfolio for the safety and security of our staff and guests.”

Phil Bryant, Service Accounts Manager at Amthal Fire & Security added: “ “What our long term relationship with Hawksmoor demonstrates is our preferred approach to working with clients, in true partnership.  Our aim is to grow with clients and become the first port of call to organise all fire and security services.

“In Hawksmoor’s case, we are now asked to be involved with all areas of its operation from the planning of new site acquisitions and new site openings, through to a scheduled service and support package for the group’s portfolio.  We even recently travelled with Hawksmoor on its first venture outside of London, with Hawksmoor Manchester.  Overall, it shows how Amthal is Hawksmoor’s total security solution provider.”

Independently owned, Amthal Fire & Security is dedicated to satisfying end user needs for security safety and convenience offering design, installation, service and remote monitoring of advanced electronic fire & security solutions, including intruder, Fire, Access and CCTV systems.

Amthal Fire & Security is accredited by the Security Systems and Alarm Inspection Board (SSAIB) United Kingdom Accreditation Services (UKAS) and British Approvals for Fire Equipment (BAFE.)
