Access Control Systems

What Are Access Control Systems?

Access control systems are advanced security solutions that regulate who can enter specific areas of your premises and when. These intelligent systems use a combination of electronic hardware, software, and credentials such as key cards, fobs, biometric readers, or mobile devices to manage entry points throughout your building. By replacing traditional lock-and-key methods, access control provides a flexible, auditable, and highly secure way to protect your property, assets, and people whilst maintaining complete oversight of building access.

Access Control System Components and Features

Understanding what comprises a modern access control system helps you appreciate the sophistication of your security investment. At the heart of every system is the control panel, which processes credential data and makes access decisions based on pre-programmed rules. Electronic locks and magnetic locks secure your doors, whilst card readers, biometric scanners, or keypad entry devices verify user credentials.

Our systems include intelligent features such as anti-passback, which prevents credentials from being shared, and time-based access rules that automatically restrict entry outside business hours. We also provide visitor management capabilities, allowing you to issue temporary credentials whilst maintaining security protocols. For organisations requiring the highest security levels, we offer multi-factor authentication combining cards with PIN codes or biometric verification.

Quick Answer

Find The Right Answers To Your Questions

How difficult is it to add or remove users from the system?

Adding or removing users is straightforward and can be done in minutes through the management software. You simply create a user profile, assign access permissions to specific doors or areas, and program their credential. When someone leaves your organisation, you can instantly deactivate their access without affecting other users or requiring any physical changes to your locks.

Yes, our access control systems include battery backup functionality to maintain operation during power outages. Locks can be configured to either fail-secure (remain locked) or fail-safe (unlock) depending on your security requirements and fire safety regulations. The system continues logging access events, and normal operation resumes automatically when power is restored.

Absolutely. Our access control solutions are designed to integrate seamlessly with CCTV systems, intruder alarms, and building management systems. This integration enables powerful features such as automatically capturing video footage when doors are accessed, triggering alarms for unauthorised entry attempts, and creating a unified security management platform for your entire site.

Lost cards can be deactivated immediately through the management software, preventing any security breach. We can issue a replacement card quickly, and the new credential can be programmed with the same access permissions as the original. This process is far more secure and cost-effective than dealing with lost keys, which would require expensive lock replacements.
