Control who goes where, and when

Access control replaces keys and guesswork with a secure, auditable way to manage movement through your site. Credentials — keycards, fobs, mobile phones or biometrics — decide who can enter which doors, at which times, with every event recorded.

Beyond the hardware, we design access control that works with the way you operate. Doors, zones and schedules are configured around your staff and visitors, and integrated with your security team so alarms, incidents and access events are handled in one place.

From a single office door to a multi-building campus, we design, install, configure and manage access control that scales with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can access control work with our existing doors and locks?

In most cases, yes. During the site audit we assess your existing hardware and recommend the most cost-effective path — from retrofitting readers to a full system.

How do visitors get in?

Visitors can be pre-registered, sign in digitally at a reception kiosk, or be admitted remotely via intercom and video entry — with hosts notified automatically.

Is it cloud-based?

Yes. Our access control is managed from the cloud, so you can grant and revoke access, view events and manage schedules from anywhere.

How is this different from a lock and key?

Keys can be copied and lost, and there's no record of who entered. Access control gives you contactless credentials, granular schedules and a complete audit trail.
