<\/a>Access Control<\/p><\/div>\n
Access control <\/a>systems are physical or electronic systems which are designed to control who has access to a location. The most simple example of a physical access control system<\/strong> is a door which can be locked, limiting people to one side of the door or the other.<\/p>\n These systems are typically comprised of:<\/p>\n Access Control at SOS locksmith<\/p><\/div>\n 1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keypad for entry from outside or internal entry into a secured location (ie: server rooms, vaults, etc.)<\/p>\n 2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Electronic lock on door(s) that will engage or disengage according to credentials programmed into system.<\/p>\n 3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cBrain\u201d or electronic hub where data is stored and checked, This usually includes a software module that is installed to gain access to the data.<\/p>\n 4)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In most cities there are laws and codes pertaining to egress from a location, so that must be taken into account. For example, usually a motion detector or push-to-exit button are deployed inside the building at each exit to provide a means of egress.

The larger the number of users, the higher the risk. In a situation where numerous users, including guests, are entering the area, tiered levels of security may be advisable. For example, a bank with a large staff and customer base will undoubtedly employ multiple access control systems to ensure that the public cannot reach the safe, unauthorized staff cannot reach the ATM, and so forth. On the other hand, a smaller business might be satisfied with a single key used to open all of the doors in the building, distributed to all employees.<\/p>\n Read About: Locksmith NYC<\/a>, Lock Installation NYC<\/a>, Intercom Service NYC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
