Secure. Dependable. Built for the future.
Electronic key fobs and key cards are prevalent in commercial access control, offering a modern alternative to traditional metal keys and locks.
These systems operate with tenants using either a key fob or a card. By presenting their device to a reader, the system scans and verifies their credentials. Authorized devices are promptly granted entry.
These devices generally incorporate RFID technology, allowing for wireless communication between the fob or card and the reader.
While more efficient than conventional keys, electronic entry systems have their challenges. If a tenant misplaces or damages their device, it must be replaced by the property staff. Furthermore, with changes in personnel, such as new hires or departures, devices need to be issued, returned, and their access configured appropriately.
Keypad access control systems primarily involve an electronic device with a numeric keypad mounted at entry points. Tenants and staff are assigned personal PIN codes, which they input into the keypad to unlock doors.
This method is particularly advantageous for office environments as it negates the need for physical keys or fobs, reducing the burden of carrying or potentially losing such items. Access is simply gained by entering a PIN code.
Management of access is streamlined via cloud-based software, allowing for quick adjustments to individual permissions. Additionally, some keypad systems integrate with mobile apps, providing a dual method for entry—either through PIN entry or smartphone activation, enhancing convenience and flexibility.
Investing in a mobile access control system can significantly streamline operations for offices and businesses by enabling tenants to use their personal mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets, or even Apple Watches, as their entry credentials.
One of the key advantages for property management is the elimination of the need to issue and program traditional access devices like fobs. Management can control and adjust access rights remotely via a cloud-based platform, using tenants’ own devices, simplifying the entire process.
Moreover, mobile access systems offer the added benefit of being touchless. Tenants can open doors without making physical contact with a reader, promoting hygiene and reducing the spread of pathogens—an especially valuable feature in environments such as hospitals and childcare facilities.
A cloud-based access control system allows for the remote administration of property access via any device connected to the internet. Unlike traditional systems, which necessitate the installation and upkeep of an on-site server, cloud-based solutions leverage cloud storage for data. This shift not only simplifies maintenance but also reduces costs associated with the management of access control systems.
Additionally, cloud-based systems offer superior scalability and flexibility. As business needs change or grow, these systems can easily adapt, accommodating more users or integrating additional features without the need for physical upgrades or extensive installations. This makes them particularly suited for dynamic business environments where user access needs may fluctuate frequently.
Implementing a commercial video intercom system at your building’s entrance is an effective method to control access. These systems not only facilitate easy entry for tenants but also simplify the process for visitors to gain access to the property.
We suggest opting for wireless video intercom systems that come equipped with a mobile app. The wireless nature of these systems makes installation both simpler and more cost-effective. Moreover, by using a mobile app, tenants gain the convenience of managing door access directly from their smartphones, enhancing their ability to remotely control entry for themselves and their guests.
Additional advantages of using a commercial video intercom system include seamless delivery management, ensuring tenants never miss a package. Visitors can directly contact and request access from the specific tenant they are visiting, bypassing the need for front desk involvement. Furthermore, tenants have the flexibility to grant access remotely, which is particularly beneficial when they are away from the office.
