Access Control Systems
Our networked access control systems provide scalable security solutions for commercial properties. Using P4 controllers and enterprise software, we enable real-time monitoring of unlimited doors across multiple sites. Systems support biometric identification, RFID technology, and interlock configurations for high-security environments. With 5-year warranties and lifetime support, our solutions combine robust security features with intuitive user interfaces.
Biometric Identification
Our biometric access control solutions use fingerprint recognition with distributed template technology. This eliminates network duplication requirements, reducing hardware costs by 30% while maintaining enterprise-grade security. Systems integrate seamlessly with existing access control infrastructure and support up to 1,000 biometric users per controller with 200-year data retention.
Networked Controllers
Our P4 controllers offer scalable access control solutions with 12V 5A power supplies and support for 32,000 credentials. Available in Ethernet, PoE, and standalone configurations, they enable seamless integration across multiple sites. Controllers feature built-in interlock capabilities and support various reader technologies including HID, magstripe, and barcode systems.
Interlock Systems
Our interlock systems control multiple doors to prevent simultaneous access, ensuring high-security environments. The 2-door and 4-way interlock controllers provide electrical door monitoring with programmable lock timers. Systems integrate with existing access control infrastructure and support emergency egress requirements through programmable interlock configurations.
Enterprise Software
Our Doors Enterprise software provides centralized management of access control systems with SQL Server database integration. Features include multi-user support, time sheet reporting, roll call functionality, and biometric identification management. The software supports unlimited client workstations and offers compatibility with both new P4 and legacy P3 hardware systems.
