What Is a Door Access Control System?
What Are The Types of Door Access Control Systems?
There are various types of access control systems but some of the most common are mobile phone access, card access, key fob access, biometric access, RFID, and smart lock access control. Determining the best access control locks and system for your needs and budget depends on various factors. The number of doors you need to secure, whether the system needs to be server-based or cloud-based and what features you require. Access systems can include audit trail capabilities, door lock schedules, integration with other security components, such as fire or intrusion alarms, security cameras, ADA door operators, intercom systems and other building management systems.
Door access control systems can be as basic or advanced as you need so it’s best to discuss options with our access control security specialists. We’ll start with the number of doors you need control and go from there with the features and capabilities you desire. Here are a few common types of systems we offer:
Mobile Phone Access
If you have a mobile phone, iPhone or Android, why not use it to open a door? These systems utilize an app or NFC capabilities to open a door.
Card Access
Instead of a mechanical key, a keycard (the same size as a credit card) will unlock a door when held in front of a card reader.
Biometric Access
High tech systems utilizing methods such as a fingerprint, retina or iris scan, facial or voice recognition to grant access through a door.
Key Fob Access
Similar to a keycard system but the access credential is a round fob that stores data and will unlock a door when presented to a reader.
RFID Door Locks
Perfect for a single door (or a couple doors) access codes are programmed within the lock so a pin code will release the lever of the lock.
Smart Locks
A good solution for a single door (or a couple doors) by utilizing an app on a smart phone or NFC communication when in range of the lock.

Why Remote Access Control
Unlike other security systems, a lack of keys is fantastic for ensuring access to your business doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. With physical keys, you not only need to ensure keys are reclaimed from former employees, but you’ll also likely have to make duplicates as you grow and gain new employees. This further increases the risk of keys falling into the wrong hands by being misplaced. Our expert access control installation services ensure you retain complete control over your business and who has access to it.
Some other benefits that may interest you include:
- Server-based or cloud-based access control software options
