Today, more than ever, managing the flow of people in and out of your commercial property or business is crucial. You need to know more than an entry is approved; buildings with sensitive areas tracking individuals’ travel is critical. 

Access control systems allow your security and safety staff to focus on overseeing temporary visitors while keeping an eye out for conflict or threats. In addition, using automated keycards, facial ID systems, and biometrics adds a layer of security that feels passive and unobtrusive to approved users.

HIERARCHICAL ENTRY

Every business and property has employees with different levels of access. For example, managers, administrators, and specialists have the right to enter more spaces, while lower-level employees and service staff are more restricted. 

People get promoted, laid-off, or leave a company requiring you to update rights. With a centralized and automated database, you can add, delete, or modify permissions quickly - often without issuing a new card. 

In the same way, IT managers control who has access to different parts of a server; keycards and biometric verification provide a seamless means to grant entry. You protect everyone by adding facial identification to cabinets containing pharmaceuticals, dangerous materials, or expensive equipment. 

CONTROL ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS

Controlling the costs of heat and cooling are always a concern for businesses and commercial property managers. However, as more companies evolve to include hybrid and flex-time scheduling for their staff, there are times when entire sections of an office are lightly populated or empty. 

Occupancy sensors offer the ability to adjust environmental conditions suited to the number of people on a floor, room, or section. Using predetermined default levels, the HVAC system lowers temperatures, raising them in anticipation of the workday or as the space fills. Lighting and non-essential electronics can be shut off automatically, reducing energy use and complying with mandated energy savings.
