What is Access Control?

An electronic access control system uses technology to eliminate the security risks posed by mechanical locks and keys. The system grants access based on a credential that is presented, usually an electronic “key card” that is swiped or held over a card reader. When access is granted, the door is unlocked for a predetermined time, and the transaction is recorded in the system’s event log. If the access credential is not valid and access is refused, the door remains locked and the attempted access event is recorded. The access control system also monitors the door, and will sound an alarm if the door is forced open, or held open for too long after being unlocked.

Improve Security at Home

Many people consider access control systems to be beneficial only in a business environment – but access control can be a useful security tool in the home as well. You can utilize access control solutions to help keep the main entry and exit points of your home secure. And you can even tailor an access control system to control various parts of your home. For example, if you have a safe in your closet that you would like to restrict access to, installing an access control terminal in that room can be beneficial. Similarly, if there are rooms of your home that you’d want to keep children out of, such as your home office, access control terminals can help here as well.

Additionally, access control systems could make it easy for a friend or neighbor who is watching your home for you when you go out of town. Instead of needing to give them a key to your home and worrying about them duplicating the key, you can give them their own temporary access code, which automatically expires when you return home from your business trip or vacation, at a predetermined time that you specify.

Eliminate Unauthorized Access

Preventing unauthorized access is the most significant benefit of an access control system. Unauthorized access gained through unsecured entry points is a significant problem for businesses, because it puts your employees at risk of physical harm and your assets and inventory at risk of theft. You can use an access control system to prevent intruders from entering your place of business, or to prevent your employees from entering sensitive areas of the building. Even if you feel like you live in a safe area or that you can trust your employees, you can never be too cautious. Working with Iowa Surveillance Team to install even a basic access control system can go a long way toward protecting your Waverly, IA business.

Improve Employee Safety and Productivity

By keeping unauthorized persons out, your employees will be much safer in your office, warehouse or any other facility. And they likely will feel much safer at your place of business, knowing that they are protected by a professional access control system. So your employees can focus on their job roles, without worrying about security risks caused by unauthorized entry.

In addition, a professional access control solution can enable you to track employee whereabouts and movements, so that you can see how often they leave their workstation and where they’re going. Employers may find that this can increase employee productivity.

And if you have a security team, a quality access control solution will provide them with convenient and straightforward administrative management of employee credentials, status, and access rights, along with card status and replacement.

Enhance Security for Sensitive Areas

There likely are areas of your facility that contain sensitive equipment, documents or data. As a business owner, you need to be particularly mindful of who has access to these areas. If the wrong person gets access to equipment or sensitive information, this can represent significant risk to your business – so it’s best to be safe when it comes to protecting these critical areas. A professional access control system enables you to add or revoke access privileges to these areas for any employee, at any time. Consider installing access control in:

• Human Resources Areas
• Research Labs
• Server Rooms
• Records Rooms
• Cash Offices
• Product Development Areas
