Access control for a small business: fobs, keypads and keys
Access control replaces keys with fobs, codes or cards so you can add or remove access without changing locks.
Why businesses switch
- Staff change: a lost fob can be switched off instead of rekeying the building.
- You can limit access by person, door and time of day.
- Some systems keep a log of who entered and when.
Options
- Keypads: simple and cheap, but codes get shared.
- Fobs and cards: individual credentials that can be removed.
- Smart or phone-based entry: convenient, needs planning and a network.
- A hybrid: access control on the main doors and keyed locks on inner doors.
Plan before you buy
- List the doors and who needs access to each.
- Check the door type, power and exit hardware: fire rules apply.
- Choose a system you can service and expand.
How we help
- We install and service fob, keypad and card reader systems and combine them with master key systems.
