Why choose access control for your school?

Why is office access control necessary?

Office access control systems help schools improve safety, manage who enters the building, and reduce the risk of unauthorised access. They’re ideal for protecting your staff, contractors and visitors, restricting sensitive areas to certain users or user groups, and responding quickly in emergencies. Plus, they log who comes and goes and reduce the hassle of forgotten and lost keys.

How access control works
in an office environment

How access control works in a school environment

Our office access control systems are tailored to how your office operates. Set internal doors to open automatically during your operating hours, while securing your entry doors to require a key fob or ID card at all times to secure entry points. Card readers, fobs, or biometric systems can all be used to secure your building, while granting access to the correct people. Manage everything from a central dashboard, making it simple for admin teams to stay in control.
