Benefits of an Access Control System for your Home or Business

Installing an access control system for your business increases security acting as a barrier for intruders gaining access to your business or property. There are also many reasons why access control systems are now increasingly being used to strengthen security measures for your business.

• Reduce Theft and Accidents

Access control systems are designed to give access to approved individuals only. Therefore, you can manage who is authorised to enter your business / property or even restrict access to an area or room within a business or property. A business may want to limit access to an area which may have hazardous complications if an untrained employee came into contact with it, for instance at a chemical plant, reducing accidents or devastating circumstances. A stock room with high value items would restrict access to certain employees reducing damage or theft.

• Preventing Crime

A business who utilises an access control system will act as a deterrent to criminals. Installing a surveillance system alongside access control will also increase security and dramatically reduce your business insurance.

• Increase safety for your employees and visitors

Being able to monitor who is entering and exiting your business provides you with the accurate data required to effectively manage the security of your business. The system keeps track of your employee’s and visitor’s movements within the business, making sure that no unauthorised person gains access.

• Control multiple access across multiple properties

An Access Control System will not only allow a business to limit access to those employees who only need to enter one building, but will also allow access to those employees who need to enter all buildings.

• Loss of Keys

Locks and keys allow you to secure your building, but when keys are lost or stolen, the inconvenience and expense of changing locks and re-issuing keys can be considerable. Keys may also be copied, creating even more security risks.
