Why Do You Need Access Control?
Access control systems are designed to manage and restrict access to your premises, ensuring that only authorised individuals can enter specific areas.
These systems can include keypads, card readers, biometric scanners, and even smartphone-based solutions. While it may seem simple to install a basic access control system, there are many considerations to take into account, such as the level of security required, the number of access points, and the need for integration with other systems.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common Inquiries About Our Services
What are the main types of access control systems?
The main types are: card or fob–based systems, keypad entry with PIN codes, smartphone access using mobile credentials, and biometric systems using fingerprint or facial recognition. Each type offers different levels of security, convenience, and cost.
What are the benefits of using an access control system?
Key benefits include: improved security by preventing unauthorised entry, improved safety for staff and visitors, greater control over who can access specific areas, and the ability to track movement within a building.
How long does it take to install an access control system?
It depends on the complexity of the system and the size of the site. A simple system might be installed in a day or two, while a more complex, integrated system could take longer. A site assessment will give you a better idea of the timeline.
Can access control systems be integrated with other security systems?
Absolutely. Integration is a major advantage. You can link your access control with CCTV, intruder alarms, and fire detection systems. This creates a more complete and efficient security solution.
What is the best access control system for a small business?
There isn‘t a single “best” system. It depends on your specific needs and budget. Keycard or keypad systems are often a good starting point, while smartphone access offers convenience. A good assessment will help you choose the right option.
How do I manage and update an access control system?
Most modern systems come with user–friendly software that allows you to easily add or remove users, change access permissions, and generate reports. Many systems also offer remote management capabilities.
