The definition point

Access control refers to the methods and technologies used to restrict access to premises, or access to a building, according to predefined rules. It aims to secure systems by authorizing only appropriate users or entities to access data or protected areas. Access control is essential to prevent intrusions and ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information.

Controlling physical access: a real security challenge

Controlling access to an industrial, commercial or residential building is a crucial safety issue (door opening, gates, wicket doors, etc.).

Efficient entry and exit management requires the installation of sophisticated access control devices such as electronic locks, badge readers, vandal-resistant keypads or biometric authentication systems. These technologies enable access to be restricted to authorized persons only, ensuring the protection of occupants and assets against intruders and malicious acts.

Are you looking for a comprehensive solution? In addition, video surveillance cameras and, if necessary, the presence of guards to control access can be considered for optimum security. This rigorous approach is not only recommended to prevent security incidents, it also helps create an environment where residents, employees and users feel safe.

The different types of access control

Stand-alone systems

This access control system can be programmed directly on the central unit (via a smartphone app or PC software). It is designed to manage a small number of doors and users. For example, we offer the M2000-BT model, which controls 2 doors and is programmed via a smartphone application in Bluetooth, or the MRS-GSM-4G, which also controls 2 doors and is programmed via software transmitting information in 4G to the receiver.

Centralized systems

In these systems, several central units are mainly connected via an IP network. There is a master unit and slave units. All data is centralized on a PC, which manages user rights via software.

Our MT50000range cancontrol up to 840 doors and 50,000 users on a single site. This security system is often used in campsites, waste disposal sites, large complexes or parking lots. Although more expensive than stand-alone systems, it also requires in-depth IT knowledge.

This type of system can also include license plate reading, which is very common in parking lots.
