Why do you need Access Control?
Access Control locks and unlocks doors in response to an ID card, without any personal intervention. Few employers want to allow all of their employees access to all facilities all of the time. More and more are using electronic access control to limit employees' access to their facilities. It provides the security you need while permitting authorized people to enter your premises with ease and allows you to check your visitors before granting entry. Access Control can also extend to your parking lot or other remote sites. A log of all entries and exits is automatically created leaving an audit trail for security and review purposes. You can even get a log of the length of time doors remained open. You may also integrate them with your CCTV systems.
NO MORE KEYS!
Keys can be copied and passed on to unauthorized persons. An employee who is dismissed or who resigns may keep a copy of the key and enter the premises unlawfully. With Access Control, the entry devices cannot be duplicated by unauthorized personnel and any devices retained by staff who have left your firm can be easily invalidated. You can even give entry devices to temporary employees and preset the date and time when their validity is nullified.
Readers and Keypads
Different Access Control technologies provide different levels of security. Combining proximity technology with biometrics yields the highest level of security by adding an extra level of ID verification. You can also use either of these independently or opt for other types of readers that offer a less expensive yet viable alternative for medium and low level security.
There are a lot of choices available when selecting a reader interface for your access control system. If you are looking for more information on Card Access follow this link http://www.kantech.com/
