Answer: In the root folder of the toolkit you'll find a document called “List of Documents” which will explain which control is covered by which document. In there you will find that control A.11.1.5 (Working in secure areas) is covered by template "Procedures for Working in Secure Areas", that can be found on folder 08 Annex A A.11 Physical and environmental security.

Regarding the other controls from section A.11.1, ISO 27001 does not require a document for each control that is implemented. For small and mid-size companies generally is sufficient to simply describe how they are implemented in the Statement of Applicability (SoA). This template you can find on folder 06 Statement of Applicability.

To see the required documents by the standard, and the most common documents implemented to support an ISMS, please see this article: List of mandatory documents required by ISO 27001 (2013 revision) https://advisera.com/27001academy/knowledgebase/list-of-mandatory-documents-required-by-iso-27001-2013-revision/
