Keyless Property Access Control Los Angeles

By Catherine Anderson


Access control systems (ACS) are used in residential and businesses properties throughout the world. These are used to enhance the general security, including keeping occupants' safe and safeguarding property. With the current sophistications in technology, there are wide range of options at your disposal; ranging from keypads to card readers to biometrics, which include fingerprint scanners and more. Whether you are selecting property access control Los Angeles systems for your home, business, or an apartment complex, there are vital factors worth considering.

The first thing you need to take note of is the ease of use. If you're getting home late from work, what is the easiest system to use to gain entry to your property? When you're dealing with a hundred or more people in an office building, what is the easiest solution to ensure that everyone can gain access without issues and that you can track who is coming and going.

How these systems work? In most cases, individuals must swipe a card, enter specific codes, or press a button on a remote that sends a frequency to a receiver to gain access to a property protected with an access system. In some cases, people may only exit once they pay, which is the case with parking garages and lots.

What are the benefits of installing these devices? Admission control is important in businesses because there is usually so much foot traffic, which if anything were to be stolen it would be difficult to pinpoint who was there when they were not supposed to be. Most businesses will have a way for new visitors or clients to sign in and out of their premises so that they know who is on their assets at all times.

Biometrics is used in homes and also in high-risk businesses, such as government building server rooms and banking institutions. Fingerprint scanners, retina scanners and other high tech systems are used only to allow the person with approved access to get into a specific room or gain entry to a certain property.

Also, keyless entry systems are also beneficial because they can't be "remembered, " as entry codes can. With an entry code, each needing entry must memorize the code. If you must change the code for security reasons, such as if you let an employee go and don't want to risk having him/her be able to entry your asset afterwards, every individual needing entry to your property must then memorize a new code. With entry regulation systems, every individual needing entry gets an individually programmed tag, and that tag can easily be deactivated or reprogrammed as needed.

If you want to allow visitor entry, determine how this can be incorporated into the system. Card readers give visitors their unique card which they sign for, this way you have the visitor's information and who they are visiting in the building. They also hand the card back when they leave, so you know they have left the building, and your security has not been compromised.

Always pay very close attention to the warranty that comes with the access control systems. You want a long warranty that covers any manufacturing defects or issues, this way the repair or replacement cost is not your problem, saving you money. These systems do require regular maintenance to ensure they are operating at their best, having this included in a service agreement can help you budget more effectively.
