Door Access Control Systems

 

The term access control refers to the practice of restricting entrance to a property, a building, or a room to authorized persons. Physical access control can be achieved by a human (a guard, bouncer, or receptionist), through mechanical means such as locks and keys, or through technological means such as access control systems like the man-trap. Within these environments, physical key management may also be employed as a means of further managing and monitoring access to mechanically keyed areas or access to certain small assets.

Physical access control is a matter of who, where, and when. An access control system determines who is allowed to enter or exit, where they are allowed to exit or enter, and when they are allowed to enter or exit. Historically, this was partially accomplished through keys and locks. When a door is locked, only someone with a key can enter through the door, depending on how the lock is configured. Mechanical locks and keys do not allow restriction of the key holder to specific times or dates. Mechanical locks and keys do not provide records of the key used on any specific door, and the keys can be easily copied or transferred to an unauthorized person. When a mechanical key is lost or the key holder is no longer authorized to use the protected area, the locks must be re-keyed

Door Access Control

Door Locks

In its simpliest form, a lock is a mechanical or electronic fastening device that is released by a physical object (such as a key, keycard, fingerprint, RFID card, security token etc.), by supplying secret information (such as a keycode or password), or by a combination of more than one technology.

 

Selecting the right mechanical locking solution for your application requires you to consider how your opening needs to function. There are many choices and options available.Is the door that needs to lock considered high traffic? If so a heavy duty, Grade 1 lock should be chosen.  Does the door need to latch each time it closes, as on a fire rated door?  A product with a spring latch could be suitable while a deadbolt alone would not.  

 

Using high-quality door hardware is very important.  What separates high-quality locks from those that are inferior is often the appearance of the overall design and finish. High-quality locks also have a good feel to them when handled and operated. Poor quality locks often have a loose, sloppy feel when used.
