Personnel Access Controllers for Security

Access Control is paramount to provide security for any kind of business or government building. Restricting access only to those with permission is paramount to safety and efficiency for a variety of businesses or organizations. You will find access control for parking lot gates, business entrance doors, police stations, secure office areas, store fronts, and many other applications that need to restrict access.

Door Access Controllers come in a variety of schemes to provide fool proof security:

1. Iris Scan (impossible to forge)
2. Finger print (difficult to forge) 3. Key card (can be stolen)
4. RFI card (can be stolen)
5. Wireless remote (can be stolen)
6. Camera (human to validate identity, difficult to foil)
7. Keypad (most common, hard to forge)
8. Call box (voice, unreliable unless combined with live camera for ID)

In high security areas it's best to use a combination of the above. This provides a backup to initial security measures, making it highly difficult to foil.

Access Controllers are connected to an electronic device that performs the duty of granting access to individuals using a variety of methods to accomplish one of these two basic actions:

1. Automatically unlocking or opening a door
2. Automatically unlocking or opening a gate

Access controllers are also responsible for securing the area after the gate or door is opened, providing an alarm method if the access point is detected open for too long.

When choosing an access control method it's best to get advice from an expert who knows all of the options, and which ones are the most practical and cost effective for your specific security needs. Hire a local expert who's familiar with the area, he will know what works the best for least money, specific to your needs and concern.
