1. Protect Your Employees

Safety is of paramount importance for the stability of your business.

Access control systems allow you to provide a safe working environment for your employees, which is a relief to both employer and employee.

2. Restrict Unauthorised Access And Reduce Theft

According to ‘The Association of Fraud Examiners’ April 2015, internal theft accounts for up to 5% of annual revenues. Even more disturbing is that the smaller the business, the more disproportionate the loss.

Access control systems allow you to control who has access to where in your place of business.

Employers can grant limited access to any high risk or stock areas without increasing the risk for internal theft or damage to assets and inventory.

3. Electronic Visitor, History Logging And Muster Reports

Access control systems provide you with added security and greater peace of mind because every time access is granted to your property, it is logged and recorded for later review if necessary.

Reports can be generated to see who has accessed where, and at what time. This creates an audit trail and enables you to electronically manage time and attendance of your employees.

Muster reports allow you to instantly see exactly who is where in your building in case of a shut down or emergency.

4. Eliminate Key Problems

No more keys – you can use swipe cards, buttons or even fingerprints.

Your facilities will be safe from unwanted intruders, leaving you with no need to worry about tracking who has keys or if reproductions have been made.

5. Customise Individual Schedules

Access control systems allow you to minimise your exposure to risk by never granting more access than is absolutely required for each specific user and in any given situation.

Want to give your employees access to the building but only between the hours of nine and five? Require access for cleaners or short term staff? Need to provide an employee with 24hr access? Or do you want to give your employees access to the main building but not to the manager’s office or certain other off-limits areas?

Access control can not only do this, but it makes it easy too.

6. Provide Remote Access

Does a tech or contractor needs access to a certain area of your office building, but no one on-site has the proper level of access to let them in?

Easily one of the most convenient benefits of access control, your system can easily allow you to let in individuals when you are not there to do so yourself.

No matter where you are located, access control systems can provide access to your business remotely, and you will always know who is coming and going.

7. Reduce Energy Bills And Protect The Environment

For many users one of the biggest benefits of installing access control systems is that they greatly reduce their energy bills.

This is achieved by arranging for the access control system to exchange data with the building management system.

Since the access control system knows which areas of the building are occupied, it can configure the building management system to automatically turn off unnecessary lighting and reduce the heating in unoccupied areas.
