Access Control

Integration with video surveillance systems: Access control systems can trigger surveillance units to begin recording as soon as someone enters the building, providing additional accountability and a visual record of entries. This helps not only with security, but also with human resources time and attendance functions.

Integration with energy systems: Lights and thermostats can be programmed to turn on when employees enter the building and turn off when the building is empty, reducing energy costs.

Restricting access to equipment: Manufacturing/industrial facilities can restrict untrained employees from accessing certain equipment, to ensure safety and maintain compliance with industry regulations.

Biometric scans: Retinal scans, fingerprint scans, and facial recognition technology can be used in high-risk or sensitive areas to ensure that only authorized personnel have access.

Wireless access control: In cases where installing cabling is cost-prohibitive or not possible, wireless access control is an option that offers strong signal quality and can be used in remote buildings.
