IS3 Access Control

Commercial Access Control Systems

An electronic access control system can be used to let only authorised employees into a building after hours and to keep good records of when and where employees enter and leave. That is why more and more businesses are adopting electronic access control solutions to limit employees’ admission to certain restricted areas.

This system is also the ideal technology that actively attempts to prevent unauthorised individuals from entering a building or certain areas within a facility. It works well with video surveillance, burglar, and fire systems, making it part of a complete security solution.

The access control system is an extremely effective deterrent system. It provides an effective means of granting entry while maintaining a high level of building and property security. An access control system is more than enough to prevent just one serious loss incident per year.

Additionally, it provides assurance that employees will be protected. The system allows entry to only authorised individuals and prevents unwelcomed intruders from entering, by restricting individual movement and controlling who is allowed entry to specific areas at specific times. Access control systems provide an audit trail that not only restricts who is able to access facilities, but also provides an audit trail of when individuals are accessing facilities. It is easy for business managers to find out who was in a specific area at the exact time an incident occurred.

An access control system also eliminates problems with mechanical key and lock systems, such as the time and cost of replacing keys when an employee’s contract is over, the cost of duplicate keys, lost keys, tracking who has the keys, and worrying about misplaced or easy-to-lose keys.
