If you've ever laid awake wondering who still has a copy of your front door key, you aren't alone. Did you get the key back from the employee who left last month? What about the after-hours cleaning crew?
Relying on traditional metal keys is a security nightmare. It’s even worse when you have specific areas of your building—like your server room, an HR office, or a storage closet—that hold sensitive information and expensive equipment. When you use physical keys, you have no real way of knowing who is going where, and if a key is lost, your only option is to pay a locksmith to rekey the whole building.
It’s time to upgrade.
Why Smart Door Locks Are a Game Changer for Your Business
As part of our physical security services, we help businesses implement centralized access control systems. Put simply, we replace your traditional locks with smart door locks that give you complete oversight over your building.
We aren't tied to one specific vendor, which means we can build a system around how your team actually works. We offer a wide variety of entry options, including:
- Keypad and PIN entry
- Smartphone and mobile app access
- Traditional employee badge swipes
- Keyfob proximity readers
No matter which method you choose, the benefits of a centralized access control system completely change how you manage your facility:
- Total Visibility: You can see exactly who opened what door, and at what time.
- Flexible Permissions: Restrict access to the server room to just your IT team, or configure the front doors to automatically lock at 5:00 PM every day.
- Instant Revocation: When an employee leaves the company, you just click a button to immediately revoke their access. No asking for keys back, and no locksmith required.
Tying It All Together: Cameras and Access Control
Here is where this technology becomes incredibly powerful. If you already have a security and surveillance solution set up by our team, we can seamlessly integrate your new smart locks into that exact same system.
Imagine getting an alert on your phone that a restricted door was opened after hours, and immediately having the video footage of that exact event pulled up on your screen. It takes all the guesswork out of your building's security, allowing your access control and your security cameras to talk to each other in real-time.
