1. Five Main Advantages of Having a Card Access
System
Card Access Control System:
Generally defined, a card access system is a type of security system
which enables you to be able to access doors electronically via a key card
as opposed to a more traditional type of key.
Perhaps one of the biggest, yet least known, facts about this type of
system is that installing it will save you both money and time, and
furthermore, a card access system will also allow for much easier access
management while, at the same time, increasing facility security
wherever the system itself may be installed.
Here are five of the main advantages when it comes to having a card
access system installed.
*Perhaps one of the biggest advantages regarding this type of system is
that employees won’t have to worry about having to memorize any kind
of a PIN number. This is because card access systems do not require any
kind of a keypad that require users to enter any kind of a number each
and every time they want to obtain access to a door. As long as you
remember to keep your card in your possession at all times, you will
have nothing to worry about.
2. *Another main advantage regarding a card access system is that if the
need arises, you will be able to deny access for a key that you’ve given
out without actually having to ask that the key be returned to you. While
it’s always more convenient to change a lock as opposed to changing a
key, when it comes to card access systems, it costs nothing but a small
amount of time to have someone make a small change in the system so
that access for a specific key card will be denied.
*One other main advantage when it comes to card access systems is
that you will never have to worry about any lost keys ending up into the
hands of those who shouldn’t actually have them. This means that in the
event a card for your access system were to end up somehow getting
lost, stolen, etc., you will be able to simply deactivate the card itself until
it is found. Alternatively, you can also choose to leave the card itself
deactivated when you replace the lost card with a brand new one.
*Another great advantage of card access systems is that it is practically
impossible for anyone to copy the types of cards that are used with
these specific systems. While more traditional keys are able to be cut
and copied at places such as grocery and department stores, the
electronics that are contained within the cards for access control
systems cannot be.
*One other great advantage of card access systems is that you will be
able to issue a brand new card that allows access to multiple doors in a
matter of minutes. This means that if you were to hire a new employee
or if an existing card ends up wearing out or breaking, you can simply
establish and issue a brand new one all with the same access if the
employee had access previously, as well as without all of the issues
regarding determining which specific doors they should be permitted to
access again.
