Access Control Systems in Kansas City

Access control systems are essential for maintaining the security and integrity of any facility. They help in managing who has access to specific areas within a building, ensuring that only authorized personnel can enter restricted zones.

In addition to enhancing security, access systems can also improve operational efficiency by streamlining the process of granting and revoking access. This is particularly important in environments where security is a top priority, such as data centers, research labs, and government buildings.

Access control is crucial for enhancing security in commercial buildings in Kansas City. They provide benefits such as physical access control, touchless control, video surveillance, integrations, and sensors, creating a safer and more secure environment for employees and stakeholders.

What Is Access Control?

Access Control is the selective restriction of access to your home or business. The simplest of access control systems is a door key. Key access, though is limited in flexibility and security. The basics of a good Access Control System should allow you to:

  • Restrict access to specific people on certain days and/or times of days
  • Restrict general access to certain days and/or times of days
  • Track when access was given
  • Immediately add or eliminate access to the facility
  • Eliminate the issues with keys and re-keying of doors & locks on a regular basis

Modern access control systems are particularly beneficial for Kansas City businesses, offering advanced security features like touchless access, surveillance, integrations, and sensors to ensure the safety of commercial buildings.

Custom Fitted to Your Needs

Jade Alarm Co. systems are extremely flexible and easy to use. Each individual is assigned a card or fob. That device is then assigned a position within a matrix that is setup for your establishment. This matrix allows or denies access based upon the authority level of this individual card or fob. If someone attempts to enter when they are not allowed, this will show on reports that we can generate for you. Access control solutions enhance security in commercial buildings by eliminating physical keys, providing various access options, and enabling remote control and monitoring through cloud-hosted software.

You can choose to self-administer your SecureCard system or have it remotely administered by our Central Station Monitoring Command Center in our secured facility.

FAQs

A managed access control system is a security solution where access control tasks, such as system updates, user credential management (ie; cards, fobs or biometric), and report generation, are handled by Jade Alarm’s Central Station staff. This differs from traditional access control where the system is managed in-house. The key advantages of managed access control are that it can save time, reduce internal workload, provide expert oversight, and offer up-to-date security measures without requiring direct management from the property owner or company. Additionally, several levels of staff at Jade Alarm are knowledgeable so if someone is ill or on vacation the required request is still processed! We have see occasions where the initial installation of a ‘fancy’ access system has become unused due to the administration of the system has been its downfall with the computer being set aside as the person knowledgeable on the system’s operation had left the employment. Working with experienced access control installers can ensure that your managed access control system is properly integrated and maintained.
