Access Control Systems

Most businesses require some type of access control. Access control provides a way for people to
only enter areas of a building where they are allowed to be.

Access control can be accomplished either mechanically with keys or electronically with a card or

fob. An example of a mechanical access control system is a masterkey system which uses keys that are created to work a particular door or several doors in a building. There is also a masterkey that opens all the doors in the building.

Electronic access control systems use software to manage who has access to particular areas of a building. A card or fob assigned to a person is programmed to open only the doors a particular person is authorized to enter.
