4 Key Benefits of an Access Control System>
Access control is an important component of the total security of your business, including both employees and assets. Regardless of the size of your business, managing access to your building is of the utmost importance. The proper access control system saves you time and money as well as gives you and your employees the peace of mind of a secure work environment. A well-designed access control system can restrict or grant access to your building and designated areas. Benefits of a good access control system are below.
Time savings- Access control can be thought of as a “set it and forget it” system. Once a good access control practice is in place, the system administrator can maintain the system without major changes taking place. Once an employee is given access to the building or designated area the administrator only needs to be involved if an employee change is made.
Eliminates Keys- Employees can get rid of their heavy key rings once an access control system is in place. Since everything is managed from one central system, the need for multiple keys is a thing of the past. Also, there would is need to visit the locksmith for new keys every time someone loses their key. Key fobs or access cards can be easily programmed and deactivated by the system administrator.
Monitors employees’ entries/exits- Most access control systems can give you data for when employees enter and exit the building or designated areas. This may help you determine when an employee is working and which rooms they have accessed.
Security- A properly managed access control system will allow you to control entry into your building, thus protecting your employees from unwanted visitors. Sensitive information can also be protected when it is stored on company servers, since access to the server or IT room can be restricted.
