Access Control

In a nutshell, access control is a means of controlling who enters a location and when.  The person entering may be an employee, contractor or a visitor.   By using an electronic access control system, this gives you control which lets you set the parameters for each individual and it also allows you to quickly and easily update them whenever you need too.

An access control system enables you to avoid the downside of using mechanical keys and gain much more control over your building or site.  Access cards are still the most common identifiers used in access control systems.  This is where you present a card to a reader and if all the conditions stored in the system are met, you are allowed to enter.  There are other options to cards and some offer higher levels of security. All the systems are designed to provide protection in three ways.  Firstly the systems monitor the location of individuals within a building, Secondly they control the access permissions for specific areas and finally they are used to manage individual user permissions to access specific areas at specific times.
