Control sensitive areas The management of a four-story medical office building had a problem. How do you ensure that your building will stay secure even though people need to come and go at all hours of the day and night? All the doctors and their staff had keys and it was common to find that the entrances had been left unlocked. Electronic Eye installed an access control system and each person was given an electronic access card. At a predetermined time every day, the doors locked automatically. If an authorized person needs to gain access after hours, their electronic "key" will unlock the door for them, and at the same time record this entry in the microprocessor. As soon as the person is inside, the system will relock itself. Exit is just as easy. A report of who entered the building after hours is made available to the building management on a regular basis. If a "key" is lost, it's a simple task for Electronic Eye to delete the "key" from the list of approved cards, and this can be done automatically from Electronic Eye's office. Every building and industry can use access control A large company with seven locations, in different states, needed access on a random basis to all of the locations. With almost everyone (150 associates) having keys, security breaches were a daily occurence. After a site assessment, Electronic Eye designed a system which gave each authorized associate an electronic "key" which would operate the lock in one, all or any combination of locations (depending upon their operational needs). The system also automatically relocks the doors. If an associate leaves the company or loses his or her key, it can immediately be voided with a telephone call to Electronic Eye's headquarters. As an added benefit, corporate management now receives a weekly report of who opens and closes which office and when. |
