Access Control

An Access Control system controls movement of people around a building
or site by locking doors using electric locks. A person then has to unlock
the door by either typing a code at a keypad, using a card in a reader
or some other access device (Eg. fingerprint reader or intercom system).
These systems are primarily used to segregate public and private areas.
Where a building has a mixture of public and employee’s (i.e. a bank)
it can also help protect employee's from potential intruders. Access control
although not primarily designed for security adds a very visible deterrent
to the potential intruder.
