Access control

Restrict · Block · Monitor entry

Card, fob, mobile or biometric — let the right people through, keep the rest out, and know exactly who went where and when. Scalable from a single back door to multi-site enterprise deployments.

Automate Your Access Control

A completely secure workplace

An access control system identifies and verifies an individual's level of authorisation, then opens doors only where they're permitted to go. It protects your property, people, assets and information — all from one centralised platform.

Different staff need different levels of access. Reception isn't the server room; the server room isn't the executive suite. Access control gives you the flexibility to secure different areas with different access levels within one building, and the reporting to know who went where and when.

Access points are typically positioned around a facility's perimeter, near vehicular gates, turnstiles, building entry points, doors into rooms and other special areas within a building.

How It Works

Three components, one system

Every access control deployment, from a single front door to a 50-site enterprise network, comes down to the same three building blocks working together.

01

Credential

Card, fob, PIN, mobile credential or biometric — what the person presents to identify themselves.

02

Reader

Mounted at the door — verifies the credential against the central system and decides whether to grant access.

03

Lock

Electric strike or magnetic lock that releases the door — fail-safe or fail-secure to match your code requirements.

Every entry, every door, every person — logged automatically. Pull a complete history report in seconds, revoke access in one click.

Capabilities

What access control delivers

From the simple ("who's on site right now?") to the strategic ("revoke access for an ex-staff member instantly across every site"). Here's the core capability set.

Live Headcount

Know the identity and number of staff on site at any given time — critical for emergency evacuations.

Keyless Entry & Exit

No more lost keys, no more rekeying locks. Cards, fobs, PINs or mobile credentials replace physical keys.

Zone-Specific Access

Different staff get access to different parts of the same building — reception, warehouse, executive level.

Remote Lock & Unlock

Lock or unlock any door, gate or access point from your phone — let in a delivery without driving back to site.

Complete History

Centrally managed log of every entry — who, where, when. Pull reports for any door or any person, any timeframe.

Instant Revocation

Ex-staff member? Lost card? Cancel access permissions in one click — across every door, every site, instantly.

Door-Held-Open Alerts

Get notified if a door is propped open longer than a set time — a simple way to spot tailgating risks.

Restricted Sites

Lock down sensitive areas to specific staff — labs, server rooms, executive floors, secure storage.

Multi-Site Integration

Run multiple buildings or branches from a single control panel — same credentials, same dashboard, everywhere.

Smartphone Access

Replace cards entirely with mobile credentials — staff use their phone, no physical card to lose or share.

FAQ

Common questions

Quick answers to what people most often ask. Anything else, give us a call.

Card, fob, PIN or mobile — which should we use?
Depends on your team and threat profile. Cards and fobs are familiar and reliable but get lost. PINs are cheap but can be shared. Mobile credentials (using staff phones) eliminate physical tokens and let you revoke access from your phone. Biometrics — fingerprint or face — are highest security but cost more. Most sites end up with a mix: cards for the bulk of staff, biometrics or PIN for sensitive areas.
Can it integrate with our existing CCTV and alarm system?
Yes — that's where it gets powerful. Access events can trigger CCTV recording, the alarm can disarm automatically when an authorised person enters, and a single dashboard shows you alarm, CCTV and access activity together. We'll do a free site assessment to confirm what's compatible.
What happens if power or internet goes down?
The system has battery backup at every door, so a power cut doesn't strand staff inside or lock out emergency responders. Locks are configured fail-safe (unlock on power loss) for fire-egress doors and fail-secure (stay locked) for high-security doors, exactly per code. If internet drops, the readers continue working from their local cache and sync events back to the cloud when connectivity returns.
Can I get a report of who entered when?
Yes — that's one of the biggest day-one benefits. Pull a complete history by person, by door, by date range, with timestamps. Export to spreadsheet for HR, compliance, or incident review. Every event is logged the moment it happens, with no manual sign-in sheets.
What does it cost?
Depends on the number of doors, the credential type, and whether you want cloud-managed or local-managed. A single-door deployment is straightforward; multi-site enterprise systems scale up accordingly. Get in touch for a no-obligation quote tailored to your premises.
Can we keep our existing doors and locks?
In most cases, yes. We add electric strike or magnetic locks alongside your existing hardware — your doors and frames stay as they are. We'll do a site walk-through to confirm what works and identify any doors that need upgrading for code compliance.
