Advantage Access Control System

Card entry systems are used to prevent access to areas such as condominiums, office buildings, warehouses and other facilities. They eliminate the problem by the use of unauthorized keys, in case it was copied or missing. Each access card or who we often refer to the key fob has a unique number that can be removed from the system if it is lost or stolen.

Before access controls were only in secret military facilities, but now they are widely used in airports, residential buildings and large and small businesses.  When access granted, each cardholder is identified in the system and log information will stay in database for up to 3 years. Log memory allows you to control door activity, when and who was entering the door.
