This article will delve into how door access control systems work, the various types available, and the comprehensive services we provide to ensure your business remains secure.
Understanding Door Access Control Systems
A door access control system is a sophisticated security solution designed to manage and monitor who has access to specific areas within a building. Unlike traditional locks and keys, these systems utilise advanced technologies to authenticate individuals and grant or deny access based on your selected permissions.
Components of a Door Access Control System
A typical door access control system comprises four main components:
- A reader
- A controller
- The input/output (I/O) device
- The power supply
- The Lock
The reader scans identification credentials tools such as key cards or fingerprint data. The controller, which is the brain of the system, manages all the readers and doors, processing the information received from the readers. The I/O device facilitates communication between the controller and various devices like door locks, motion detectors, and alarms. Finally, the power supply provides the necessary electrical power to the system's components, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Types of Door Access Control Systems
As a leading security system supplier, we understand that every business has unique security requirements. That's why our door access control systems can be custom-designed and installed to meet the specific needs of your space.
Whether you need individualised access to different areas of your workplace or a single-door entry system, we have the expertise to provide and install the perfect solution for you.
Customisable Access Methods
Our systems offer a range of access methods to ensure that entry to your business is restricted to authorised personnel only. Depending on your needs, we can incorporate:
- Codes: Keypad systems where users enter a PIN to gain access.
- Tags: RFID tags or proximity fobs that provide quick and secure entry.
- Entry Cards: Magnetic stripe or cards scanned by a reader to unlock doors.
- Biometrics: fingerprint readers can be added for an extra layer of security.
An Integrated Security System
Our door access control systems can also be integrated with your fire alarm system, enhancing the safety of everyone within your premises. In the event of a fire alarm activation, access doors will automatically unlock, ensuring that all occupants can exit the building quickly and safely.
