Access Control
Access Control complements other security devices already in operation to protect your staff and your premises. It can be integrated into your security system or a standalone feature.
Access Control:
- monitors the movement of people within the premises
- replaces conventional locks and the need for replacement in the event of lost or copied keys
- controls where staff can enter and leave the buildings
- allows specific access by individuals to building areas at specified times.
Access can be secured by using a keypad that requires a code. However, codes are easily misappropriated, compromising security.
Card Readers,
also known as Proximity Tags, are pre-programmed cards held near the sensor to operate the lock. If a card is lost, it is simply deactivated, and security is not compromised.
Biometric systems use fingerprints, iris scanners, and voice identification. They
are more expensive but offer greater security and are usually used in sensitive situations.
