- What is Access Control? Many visitors will be unaware of the
"industry terminology" used. Access Control is the deliberate
restriction of access to a specified door, barrier, machine, gate
etc by the use of electronic devices. Access Control systems ensure
that only authorised personnel are allowed access to specific
areas, therefore removing the need for constant human intervention.
- Harrison Security & Son Ltd can provide systems ranging in size
from single door entry to 1000 door plus access control solutions
using the latest technology. PC based systems are becoming the
industry standard, allowing the client full control and event
recording of multiple sites from one central location.
- Different forms of identification can be used. Biometric (fingerprint
and retina pattern) scanners have now fallen in to an affordable
bracket and provide the ultimate in identification security, whilst
conventional "swipe" and proximity cards are still the
most popular means of entry.
- Entry to casual visitors is usually granted by use of an intercom
system. See the Intercom page for more
details.
- Integration of access control systems provides flexible administration
for clients. Lockers, safes, "clean rooms", cash cards
(the card is "charged up" by an administrator with a
desired amount of money upon receipt of payment, which is then
"spent" as the card holder accesses certain buildings,
rooms, rides, lockers, areas, car parks etc), vending machines,
golf ball dispensers, golf caddies are just a few examples of
use.
- Any application in your organisation that relies upon a locking
device to secure it or a means of electrical switching to turn
it on, can be integrated into an access control system, therefore
ensuring that only authorised personnel can access or operate
these areas or equipment and that a full record of the activation
is logged on a secure database.
- Applications include:
- Control of entrance to doors, traffic barriers, pedestrian
gates
- Access to hotel rooms, lifts
- Control of lifts so that cardholders could only go to certain
floors
- Operation of electrical machinery
- Operation and automated billing for vending machines
- Control of swimming bath lockers, group control of swimming
bath lockers so that a group leader can open and secure multiple
lockers with one card from one point
- Sports club changing rooms
- Automated billing and access when entering a sauna/Jacuzzi/gym/weight
room at a leisure club
- Entrance to sterile rooms through an airlock
- Entrance to pharmaceutical stores
- Automated billing for the issue of golf balls on a driving
range
- Automated and timed billing for the use of golf carts
- Automated billing and access to match day car parks
