- Government and public sector buildings
- Industrial and manufacturing facilities
TYPES OF ACCESS CONTROL TECHNOLOGY
Access control systems utilize a combination of hardware and software components to manage and regulate entry to buildings, rooms, or areas within a facility. These systems can include:
ACCESS CONTROL READERS
Proximity card readers, keypads, biometric scanners and mobile credentials can authenticate the identity of someone seeking entry and can grant or deny access based on outlined permissions.
ACCESS CONTROL PANELS
Our access control panels are the central hubs that manage access control functions including user authentication, credential verification, and door release commands.
DOOR LOCKING MECHANISMS
Our door locking mechanisms are controlled by the access control system to secure entry points and prevent unauthorized access. These include electric strikes, magnetic locks and electrified door hardware.
WIRELESS HANDLESETS AND LOCKS
These provide an additional layer of security and convenience by allowing keyless entry and remote access control. These can be integrated with access control panels to allow wireless locking and unlocking of doors.
TYPES OF ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS
Access control systems can be categorized into different types based on their configuration and functionality:
STANDALONE ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS
Standalone access control systems are decentralized systems that manage access to individual doors or entry points independently. These systems are suitable for small-scale applications or environments where centralized control is not required.
NETWORKED ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS
Networked access control systems are centralized systems that allow for centralized administration and monitoring of access control across multiple doors or entry points. These systems are scalable and offer enhanced security features, such as real-time monitoring and reporting.
CLOUD-BASED ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS
Cloud-based access control systems leverage cloud technology to provide remote access management and administration from any internet-connected device. These systems offer flexibility, scalability, and ease of deployment, making them ideal for businesses with multiple locations or distributed assets.
