Secure space fit-out — design to accreditation.
We work directly with SCEC-endorsed Security Zone Consultants to deliver the construction side of secure spaces — built to the consultant's design, correctly documented, and accreditation-ready by the time the agency's assessment happens. Currently delivered as fit-out projects within existing buildings.
The consultant designs the zone. We build it — and hand over a space with no gap between what was specified and what's actually on site when accreditation is assessed.
From design intent to accreditation-ready.
SCEC Consultant Collaboration
We work from the Security Zone Consultant's design through to build, keeping construction aligned with the zone's design intent at every stage rather than interpreting drawings after the fact.
Secure Zone Fit-Out Construction
Walls, ceilings, floors, openings and penetration sealing built to the specific zone requirement — the full compartment boundary, not just the doors.
Certification & As-Built Documentation
Accurate as-built records and compliance documentation handed over at completion, so there's a clear paper trail between the design and what was actually constructed.
Accreditation-Ready Handover
The space is handed over ready for the agency's formal accreditation assessment — nothing left half-finished that could hold up sign-off.
Common questions.
What is a SCEC Security Zone Consultant, and how do you work with them?
SCEC-endorsed Security Zone Consultants are endorsed by the Australian Government to provide physical security advice on the design and construction of security zones, as defined in the Protective Security Policy Framework and ASIO-T4 Technical Notes. We work alongside them as the construction delivery arm — building the space to their design and specification.
Do you design the security zone yourselves?
No — zone design is the SCEC consultant's endorsed role, not ours. Our role is to construct the space to that design accurately, and prepare it for the accreditation process that follows.
What does "accreditation-ready" actually mean?
It means the space is physically built and documented to the point where it can go through the agency's formal accreditation assessment without further remediation work — no gaps between what was designed and what was actually built.
Is this a fit-out or a new-build (greenfield) service?
Currently fit-out only — construction of secure zones within existing buildings. Greenfield, new-build projects are planned for the future as this side of the business grows.
What's actually included in a secure space fit-out?
Walls, ceilings, floors, door and frame openings, and sealing of all penetrations, built to the specific zone requirement set out in the consultant's design — not just the doors, the whole compartment boundary.
Do you install the security alarm system as well?
No — design, testing and commissioning of Type 1A Security Alarm Systems sits specifically within the SCEC consultant's own endorsed scope, being an electrical/electronic engineering discipline. We handle the physical construction of the space and coordinate around that work.
What clearance is needed to work in these spaces?
We hold an NV2 clearance, which meets or exceeds the minimum NV1 clearance required of the SCEC consultants themselves.
Who provides final sign-off once construction is complete?
The relevant agency completes formal accreditation, based on the SCEC consultant's assessment against the design and the as-built documentation we hand over at the end of construction.
Can an existing office fit-out be upgraded into a security zone, or does it need to be stripped back?
It depends on the existing structure. In some cases the existing fit-out can be upgraded to meet the required zone standard; in others the compartment boundary needs to be fully stripped back and rebuilt. This gets assessed with the SCEC consultant as part of scoping the job.
Do you offer greenfield or new-build secure construction?
Not yet — this is currently a fit-out-only service within existing buildings, with new-build capability planned as a future addition.
