We live in a world where security is more important than ever, and being able to identify who is on your property is no longer simply a convenience—it is a requirement. When you’re a business owner, a building manager or a homeowner, having an access control solution in Christchurch offers a safe and convenient way to keep your property safe, and you and your employees, tenants or family, sound.
Here at Action Security, we’ve been assisting Cantabrians to protect the things that are most important to them for more than 40 years. From locks and gates, through to full security systems featuring CCTV, alarms and intercoms, we provide specialist advice, professional installation and bespoke systems for real security requirements.
Access Control System (ACS) is a security solution which further serves to manage and control access in both a physical and digital computer environment. Instead of deferring to heavy metal keys or padlocks, ACS solutions leverage technology—such as keycards, PIN codes, biometric scans, and mobile access—to authenticate identity and permit or deny passage through doors, gates, or other entry points.
In other words, an ACS system provides:
✔ Manage who can and cannot enter your property
✔ Monitor access and log access events
✔Replace or reduce dependence on physical keys
✔ Upgrade overall safety and security
Whether it’s a simple, single-door installation for your home or an expansive, multi-site installation for a commercial business, access control systems technology allows you to know that only the people you want to have access will have access—when you want them to have it.
Knowing the difference between the access control systems available is the frosting on the cake of securing your Christchurch premises. The three main types are:
Access to the system is determined by the owner of the system. This is what you often see with small businesses or personal properties, when one person controls the permissions.
Access is controlled by very strict rules, generally clearance and or classification levels. Frequently used for government/defense or highly regulated sectors.
Permissions are based on a user’s role in an organization — admin, employee or contractor. This is the easiest, most flexible and scalable option.
At Action Security we help sites find the right type of access for your property – if you’re looking to secure a school, warehouse, factory or retail premises, we’ve got it covered.
