Control entry to sensitive or restricted areas
Access Control
Access control gives organisations a clear, auditable way to manage who can enter buildings, rooms, and protected areas. It can replace unmanaged keys and standalone door systems with practical permissions, event history, and integration points for wider site security, allowing access to reflect real roles, schedules, and operational needs.
Security Outcomes
Integrated physical security and communications systems for buildings, sites, and operational environments.
Combine access, intruder alarm, panic alert, and CCTV capabilities
Support central management and event visibility
Manage permissions, visitor access, and schedules as operational needs change
Controls To Consider
Controls should be proportionate to risk, straightforward for users, and manageable by the team responsible for them.

Control access without slowing the site down
A suitable system keeps day-to-day entry straightforward while giving facilities and security teams better control when circumstances change.
Who can enter
Set permissions by person, team, door, time, and site area rather than relying on shared keys.
What happened
Review activity and alerts around sensitive spaces, visitor access, and unusual events.
How it connects
Plan integration with CCTV, alarms, reception processes, and the wider network where it adds value.
