Key Fob Access Control for Your Building or Business

Key Fob Access Control for Your Building or Business

A key fob is a small electronic device that may be attached to a keychain that opens or unlocks doors and has gone through several revisions since its implementation in electronic door entry systems in 1983.

Key fob access control solution provides a system that is easy to manage and keep on top of for buildings and businesses.

This system only allows residents or employees who have electronic credentials to have access to the secure areas of the building.

Each electronic credential has a unique code imbedded into it, so that when the button on the transmitter is pressed, the overhead door will open, or if the transmitter/fob is presented to a reader, the door beside it will open.

Access control systems get rid of the need for keys and allow greater control of who can access specific areas of the building.

This type of system can save you money. Consider the current system where if someone loses a key, the entire building is vulnerable until ALL the locks are re-keyed and new keys are given to every resident at a considerable expense ($5000 to $7000).

Parkades are a prime target for criminal activity. The key fob access control system protects the parkade, not only at the main and overhead doors but it will also prevent visitors from accessing the parkade through the elevator.

This system also stores information on who has accessed each area of the building and when it was accessed, which can be valuable information in the event of theft, vandalism or other criminal acts.
