Access Control

Few employers want to allow all their employees access to all facilities all of the time. That’s why more and more are using electronic access control to limit employees’ access to their facilities. At a minimum, an electronic access control system can be used to allow only employees into a building after hours, and provide excellent documentation of when and where employees enter and exit.

Access control is the only technology that proactively attempts to keep unauthorised individuals out of a building or areas within a facility, and is a perfect complement to video surveillance, burglar and fire systems in a comprehensive security solution.

The access control system is an extremely effective deterrent. It provides a very efficient means of granting entry, while maintaining a high level of building and property security. By preventing just one serious loss incident per year, an access control system can more than pay for itself.

In addition to asset protection, the access control system is your assurance that employees will be protected. Our system allows entry to only those who are authorised and keeps out unwelcome intruders, we achieve this by restricting who can go where and when. The electronic access control system allows the client to decide who is allowed entry to every door and gate by time of day. The access control system not only restricts who can go where and when, it provides an audit trail of who is accessing the facility and when. One can easily find out who was in a specific area at an exact time that an incident occurred.

An access control system, also eliminates all the problems associated with mechanical key and lock systems, e.g. the time and cost of re-keying when an employee is terminated, the cost of duplicate keys, lost keys, tracking who has keys, worrying about easy-to-duplicate keys getting in the wrong hands, etc.
