Readers & Credentials
Card readers, keypads, fobs, and mobile credentials — or a mix, so visitors and contractors have a sensible fallback.
Access Control Systems
Stop rekeying doors every time someone leaves
Card readers, keypads, fobs, and mobile credentials for small and midsize offices — installed by licensed technicians, wired properly, and managed alongside the rest of your technology instead of by a separate vendor you never hear from again.
What's included
Control who opens which door, and when
A credential you can revoke in seconds beats a key you have to chase down — and gives you a record of what actually happened.
Door Hardware & Wiring
Strikes, maglocks, request-to-exit, and power — specified to the door and to fire code, then wired and mounted by licensed technicians.
Schedules & Audit Trail
Door schedules, per-person and per-group permissions, and a log of who opened what and when — useful for insurance and compliance.
Network Integration
These systems live on your network — so they get proper cabling, segmentation, and the same patching discipline as everything else we manage.
Our approach
Doors first, hardware second
01
Walk the doors
Which doors matter, how they're built, what the fire code requires, and who needs access when — before any hardware is picked.
02
Install & configure
Licensed technicians mount and wire the hardware; we build out the users, groups, and schedules to match how you actually operate.
03
Hand over & support
You get trained on adding and revoking credentials yourself — or we handle it as part of managed IT.
Why replace keys with access control?
Keys can't be audited and can't be revoked. When someone leaves and the key doesn't come back, the honest fix is rekeying every affected door. With access control you deactivate one credential in seconds, and you get a record of who opened which door and when — which also matters for insurance and for compliance in regulated industries.
Do you need a license to install access control?
In many states, yes — electronic access control falls under private security or alarm licensing, and requirements vary by state. In Texas, for example, installation requires an Electronic Access Control Device Installer license held under a licensed security contractor company. Every access control job we dispatch is performed by technicians holding the licensing their jurisdiction requires.
Can we use phones instead of cards or fobs?
Yes. Most current systems support mobile credentials alongside cards, fobs, and keypad codes. Phones are convenient and harder to lend out casually than a fob, though many offices run a mix so there's a fallback for visitors and contractors.
What happens to the doors during a power outage?
That's determined by the lock hardware and by fire code. Fail-safe hardware unlocks on power loss, fail-secure hardware stays locked, and egress must always remain possible from the inside. The right configuration depends on the door, the building, and local code — it's decided during the walkthrough, not after installation.
Can access control tie into our existing network and IT?
Yes — and that's the advantage of having the same provider handle both. Modern systems are network-connected, so they need proper cabling, network segmentation, and someone accountable for keeping them patched and backed up: the same discipline applied to the rest of your infrastructure.
