Question 1

What is a commercial access control system?

Accepted Answer

Access Control electronically manages who can enter designated doors or areas using credentials, such as cards, Fobs, PIN's, mobile devices or biometrics.

Question 2

Can access control be added to my existing doors?

Accepted Answer

Often, yes. The existing door, frame, lock, wiring and egress requirements should be evaluated before selecting the appropriate hardware.

Question 3

What happens when an employee leaves?

Accepted Answer

Electronic credentials can typically be disabled in the access control software without rekeying every affected door.

Question 4

Can I control access by time or day?

Accepted Answer

Most commercial access systems allow administrators to create schedules determining when specific users or credentials can access selected doors.

Question 5

Can access control work with security cameras?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Compatible systems can integrate access events with video surveillance to provide additional information when reviewing activity.

Question 6

Can you upgrade an existing access control system?

Accepted Answer

Yes. KeyStone can evaluate existing systems and determine whether components can be retained, expanded or should be replaced.

Question 7

Do you install the electronic door hardware too?

Accepted Answer

Yes. KeyStone works with electric strikes, magnetic locks, electrified locksets, exit devices and other commercial access-control hardware.

Question 8

How much does a commercial access control system cost?

Accepted Answer

Commercial access control pricing depends on the number of doors, credential readers, locking hardware, software, wiring and installation requirements. Existing door conditions and integrations can also affect the total cost. KeyStone can evaluate your facility and recommend a system based on your security needs and budget.

Question 9

What is the difference between cloud-based and traditional access control?

Accepted Answer

Cloud-based access control commonly provides management through an internet-connected platform, while traditional on-premises systems typically use locally managed software or controllers. Both approaches can provide secure access management. The best option depends on the facility, connectivity, administrative needs and selected platform.
