Access control

Access control systems: complete guide to keyless entry

Keys can easily be lost, are bulky to carry, and can be annoying to replace - so why not get rid of them altogether?

With modern technology, you can create a convenient, affordable, keyless system for your home or office - among other advantages, you won’t have to change locks every time someone loses a key.

There are so many security and convenience benefits to an access control, or keyless entry system.

They’re awesome for residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. Depending on how sophisticated you need your system to be, you can control access to different areas of the home or office.

What is an access control system?

Access control systems, which we like to call keyless entry, work by replacing keys with access credentials; these can be unique pin numbers, usernames, passwords, keycards, and other types of ID.

The purpose of an access control system is to make “keyless entry” possible, eliminating the need to ever change locks or create new keys, and to limit access to certain areas for businesses, if needed.

There are many ways to manage access to your home or office. Of course traditionally we relied on keys, but these days set ups with a cloud-based contactless system are becoming more common.

The system which works best for you will depend on your personal circumstances, and the unique needs of your residential or office space. Sometimes, a combination of methods works best.

What are the different types of access control systems?

Smart locks

Smart locks replace metal keys and let you unlock your door using a PIN code or smartphone.

Cloud-based

With an intelligent cloud-based access control system, you can open doors with any device that’s connected to the internet.

Keypads

Keypads require you to enter a PIN code to gain entry. They’re a great way to manage access around your property.

What are the benefits of an access control system?

Works well with other security systems

They’re a great complement to alarms, CCTV, intercoms, and your home automation setup.

Cost-effective in long-run

You don’t have to worry about creating new keys or changing locks, which can save a business or home-owner money in the long-run

Convenience

Don’t worry about carrying, making, or replacing keys ever again.

Better security

Most keyless systems provide much better security than traditional access methods.

Peace of mind

No more keys, no more spare keys, and no more hassle around physical locks.

Easy installation

Smart door locks are actually super easy to install.
