Commercial Applications
Commercial
Commercial access control is designed around many users, employee turnover, visitor flow, audit history, door hardware and life-safety requirements. The credential is only one piece of a complete controlled-opening system.
Systems & Specific Applications
- Card, fob, PIN, mobile and supported biometric readers for staff, tenants and controlled spaces
- Electric strikes, maglocks or electrified locksets coordinated with door type, hardware and egress requirements
- Door contacts, request-to-exit sensors/buttons, power supplies and controller/hub placement
- Role-based access groups, time schedules, holiday schedules and audit logs
- Visitor-management workflows for lobbies, offices, medical spaces and secure areas
- Video intercom at exterior doors, vestibules, loading entrances and controlled staff areas
- Turnstile, gate and parking-entry integration for campuses, warehouses and multifamily properties
- Elevator floor-access control where the building design and platform support it
- Integration with surveillance so door events can be associated with video where supported
- Fire-alarm/life-safety interface and emergency-release coordination with the responsible licensed trades and authorities
