Access Control

Access control systems are designed to regulate and manage the authorized entry of individuals into secured areas. At Safeco, we offer a range of advanced access control solutions, including biometric systems utilizing fingerprint, facial recognition, or palm print technology, as well as traditional systems based on key cards or keypads.

A typical access control system comprises six key components: an access control panel, a controlled entry point (such as a door or gate), a reader, an electric lock, a door sensor, and a Request-to-Exit device. The access control panel processes entry requests and, if authorization is granted, signals the lock to open. Once the door is closed, the sensor ensures the lock is re-engaged. The Request-to-Exit device allows users to exit securely. Whether you require biometric authentication, keycard systems, or a fully integrated security solution, we provide reliable, customized options designed to meet your specific needs.

How are Access Controls used?

An access control system determines who is permitted to enter or exit, where they are allowed to do so, and when access is granted. Prior to the advent of electronic security systems, access control was achieved through the use of keys and locks. Depending on the application, some access control solutions provide higher levels of security than others. Historically, locks and keys represented the highest level of security available. A few decades ago, keypads and key cards were regarded as the most secure methods of access control. Today, however, advanced biometric technologies, such as fingerprint and facial recognition, offer a level of security that is nearly impossible to bypass.
