Commercial Access Control Systems

Prevention: The Best Strategy

Security threats can often go unnoticed until the damage is already done – disrupting your operations and putting your assets at risk. That’s why our commercial access control systems are designed not just to react to incidents but prevent them before they even happen. By restricting unauthorised access and providing real-time monitoring, our solutions help businesses stay ahead of potential threats to create a safer workplace.

We believe that security solutions should be as unique as the businesses they protect, which is why we take a bespoke approach to every access control installation. Our team of experts conducts a thorough inspection of your premises and works closely with you to understand your needs and goals and design a system specifically tailored to your space. From consultation to installation and final handover, our process is seamless, integrating access control with your existing security measures to provide comprehensive protection for your premises.

With regular checks and servicing, we help prevent technical failures and minimise downtime for your peace of mind. From software updates to hardware inspections, we ensure your system remains dependable and effective for the foreseeable future.

Discretionary Access Control (DAC)

Discretionary access control gives businesses the ability to set different permissions for individual users – ideal for businesses that need to manage access based on varying roles and responsibilities. DAC also offers the flexibility to adapt as your needs change by allowing you to easily adjust permissions, making it particularly suitable for dynamic workplaces where access needs frequently change. However, this flexibility can also introduce human error, so businesses must ensure strong internal security measures are in place to minimise the chance of potential risks. When implemented correctly, DAC provides a scalable way to manage access points while maintaining a high level of control.

Mandatory Access Control (MAC)

A mandatory access control installation provides a highly secure system where an [CS1] administrator sets access permissions that cannot be modified or shared by users. It’s a very rigid form of access control that uses strict predefined policies to ensure only authorised individuals can access certain areas – a go-to choice for industries that require the highest level of security, such as government facilities and data centres. By removing the ability to edit permissions once they are set, MAC helps to minimise human error and maintain a secure environment but also offers less flexibility and is not well suited to businesses that require frequent access changes.

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

Role-based access control systems assign permissions based solely on individual job roles rather than any other range of factors. This approach may limit control over access policies but ensures a clear, well-structured and secure way to manage entry points. By assigning permissions based on roles such as employee, manager or administrator, businesses can ensure that individuals only have access to information and areas that are needed for their responsibilities. As a result, RBAC can bolster your security measures without the need for regular updates, while also helping your business comply with data protection regulations by limiting access for unauthorised individuals.

Standalone Access Control

Standalone access control operates as an entirely independent system that doesn’t require a network connection or central management, as all permission programming is contained within the system itself. They are typically installed at single entry points and can use different authorisation methods, such as keypads, card readers and biometric scanners. Given that there is no remote monitoring or integration with wider security measures, this system is best suited to smaller premises requiring a simple, low-maintenance solution for managing access.

Network Access Control

NAC is an advanced commercial access control system that connects to a central server, allowing businesses to remotely manage multiple entry points with real-time monitoring, access logs and automated responses to security threats. This solution is perfect for larger businesses that may operate many premises and require one centralised location for all their access control needs. NAC offers the flexibility to change permissions for individual entry points and users across all locations, and can be integrated with surveillance cameras, alarm systems and more for a truly comprehensive security operation.

Door Entry Systems

A door entry system controls who can or cannot access a building by placing an entry panel next to the entrance, which individuals then use to dial a call button and alert those in the building that they are trying to enter. The system provides control to those inside the building – whether it be a front-desk receptionist, security officer or building manager – allowing them to grant or deny entry. For smaller businesses looking for a simple, straightforward solution for securing entry points, a door entry system could be the best solution.
