SAFE HOMESAccess Control in Cape Town
Access control decides who can enter, where and when. Options include keypads, cards, fobs and remote control, and the right mix depends on the property and the people who use it.
Get the scope right before work starts.
A simple home may only need a reliable keypad or remote. Offices and workplaces often need individual credentials, so access can be given or removed for each person without changing everything.
We plan readers, door locks or gate triggers, power supply and backup, and the way users are managed, so the system is secure and practical.
- Reader type: keypad, card, fob or remote
- Door or gate lock type and fail-safe behaviour
- Power supply and battery backup
- Number of users and how access is added or removed
- Integration with intercom, CCTV or alarm systems
Include these details
- Which doors or gates need access control
- Number of people who will use it
- Whether you need user records or time restrictions
- Existing locks, intercom or gate motor
- Suburb and building type
What is the difference between keypad and card access?
Keypads use shared or individual codes, while cards and fobs identify each user. Cards and fobs are easier to remove individually.
Does access control work when the power is off?
Systems should include backup power and a defined behaviour for outages. We confirm this when designing.
Can I control access to several doors?
Yes, multi-door systems are common in offices and complexes.
