Access Control System Components

Door Controllers and Access Panels

Door controllers serve as the brains of our access control systems. These devices process credentials and make split-second decisions about granting or denying access. We install controllers that can manage multiple entry points from a single location, saving you installation costs and simplifying maintenance.


Access panels connect to various door hardware like electric strikes, magnetic locks, and automatic door operators. They house the essential circuitry and can be programmed to accommodate different security levels throughout your facility.


Our systems include backup power capabilities to maintain security during outages. Most controllers we install can store thousands of access events locally, ensuring your security data remains intact even if network connectivity is temporarily lost.

Identification and Readers

We offer various credential technologies to match your security needs and budget. Options include:


  • Proximity cards and key fobs - Convenient tap-to-access solutions
  • Smart cards - Enhanced security with encryption capabilities
  • Mobile credentials - Allow access using smartphones
  • Biometric readers - Fingerprint, facial recognition, or retinal scanning


Reader technologies vary in security level and convenience. Proximity readers provide quick access but offer basic security. Smart card readers deliver higher security through encrypted data exchange.


Biometric systems offer the highest security by requiring unique physical characteristics. We can integrate multiple reader types into a single system, allowing different security levels for various entry points or departments.

Secure Communication Protocols

Data security is critical in modern access control. We implement encrypted communication between all system components to prevent unauthorized access through digital means.


Our systems utilize industry standards like AES-256 encryption to protect credential data during transmission. This prevents credential cloning and replay attacks that could compromise your security.


The backend system stores user data in encrypted databases with proper authentication protocols. We configure role-based access to the management software, ensuring only authorized personnel can modify system settings or user permissions.


Regular firmware updates keep your system protected against new vulnerabilities. We can also implement secure network segmentation to isolate your access control system from other potentially vulnerable networks.

We install cloud-based access control systems that give you complete oversight of your property's entry points at all times. These systems store access data securely in the cloud rather than on physical hardware at your location. This approach provides several key benefits.


You can view entry logs, manage user permissions, and receive real-time alerts from any computer with internet access. If someone attempts unauthorized entry, you'll know immediately.


Our cloud systems also back up automatically, protecting your security data from hardware failures. System updates happen seamlessly in the background without disrupting your daily operations.


For business owners, this means easier management of employee access across multiple locations from a single dashboard.

Cloud-based Control and Monitoring

Our mobile access solutions put control literally in your hands. We set up user-friendly apps that work with both iOS and Android devices, letting you manage your gates with just a few taps. Key features include:


  • Real-time gate operation - open and close your gate remotely
  • Video integration - see who's at your entrance
  • Access scheduling - set specific entry times for service providers
  • User management - grant or revoke access permissions instantly


The apps use encrypted connections to ensure your security data stays protected. Your smartphone essentially becomes a powerful access control center.


Many of our customers particularly value the ability to let in visitors remotely when they're not home or to check if gates were left open accidentally.

FAQs

We've compiled answers to the most common questions our customers ask about automatic gates and access control systems. These insights will help you understand costs, troubleshooting, components, security features, maintenance requirements, and benefits.

  • What factors influence the cost of an access control gate?

    The cost of an access control gate depends on several key factors. Gate size and material significantly impact pricing, with wrought iron and steel options being more expensive than aluminum.


    The complexity of your access control system also affects cost. Basic keypad systems cost less than advanced systems with video intercoms, biometric readers, or smartphone integration.


    Installation complexity matters too. Difficult terrain, extensive wiring needs, or custom design requirements can increase labor costs.

  • What are the common troubleshooting steps for automatic gates?

    When your gate malfunctions, first check the power supply and batteries. Many issues stem from power interruptions or dead backup batteries.


    Inspect the remote controls and receivers next. Replace remote batteries or reprogram the system if needed.


    Look for physical obstructions in the gate track or hinges. Debris, ice, or misaligned tracks often cause operational problems.


    Check the safety sensors to ensure they're clean and properly aligned. Dirty or misaligned sensors can prevent gate operation as a safety precaution.

  • What components are included in an automatic gate system?

    A complete automatic gate system includes the gate itself, typically made of aluminum, steel, or wrought iron. The gate operator or motor provides the mechanical force to move the gate.


    The control board serves as the system's brain, processing all commands and security features. Access control devices may include keypads, card readers, remote controls, or smartphone apps.


    Safety features are essential components, including photo eye sensors, pressure sensors, and warning alarms. Most systems also include backup power options to ensure operation during outages.

  • How can an automatic gate be made more secure?

    Enhance gate security by installing high-quality locks and heavy-duty materials that resist forced entry. Anti-climb features and spikes can deter intruders from climbing over your gate.


    Add surveillance cameras that monitor gate activity and record entry attempts. Motion-activated lighting improves visibility and deters potential intruders.


    Consider advanced access control options like biometric readers or multi-factor authentication. Regular security audits help identify and address potential vulnerabilities before they're exploited.

  • What advantages of installing an access control system at my property?

    An access control system significantly enhances your property's security by preventing unauthorized entry. You'll have complete control over who can access your property and when.


    These systems provide convenience through remote operation. You can open your gate from your vehicle or even from your smartphone while away from home.


    Access control systems add value to your property and create an impressive first impression for visitors. Many insurance companies offer discounts for properties with security gates, potentially lowering your premiums.
