Whether you run a small or large business or even manage rental properties, your business could benefit from a keyless entry system. A traditional lock and key system do not provide a high level of security that keyless does. Keyless systems offer a cost-efficient way of controlling who can access your building while ensuring the protection of your investment.
A keyless entry system can secure any door or entry point of your choosing. You have the choice of using either one or a combination of fobs, key cards, and keypad locks. We will discuss a few ways that your business could benefit from a keyless entry system a little bit later. First, let’s check out some of the options for going keyless.
Options for Keyless Entry System
The traditional lock and key could not be simpler – it allows everyone who has a key, to gain access. However, they do not provide a high level of security. Keys are easy for thieves to get hold of, make copies, and then put back before anyone notices that the keys were taken. Unauthorized people can then gain access to your building without your knowledge.
Key Fob and Card – These both can grant and deny access through its built-in authentication. They allow the business owner to customize restrictions by only letting individuals enter at certain times of the day. They also both provide a high level of security by keeping a log. This log is a list of anyone who enters the building.
Keypad Lock – A business owner can provide someone with a code to gain access to a building. This works particularly well for anyone who rents vacation properties, as the codes can be customized for each person and can then be canceled at any time. They can also be installed throughout a building on internal doors, keeping important documents or storage areas protected.
Benefits to an Updated System
Cancel or Update Remotely
Access authorization can be updated in real-time, this is one of the best features of some keyless entry systems.
A business or property owner can deny any individual entering into a building by making changes that update immediately.
Restrict and Secure Any Area
You may want to restrict access to areas within a building, as well as the main entry points. You can use a combination of key fobs, cards, and/or keypad locks throughout the building. This allows the business owner full control of movement throughout the building. For example, this can protect any storage areas or rooms that contain important documents.
Reduction of Violence and Theft
By installing a keyless entry system, this will dramatically reduce the risk of theft. It will also protect your building from any breach of confidential information, keeping all documents safe. Going keyless can also reduce the risk of any violence towards your staff, protecting your valued employees and your building.
Low Cost
Keyless entry systems can save a business owner the cost of replacing keys, as well as protecting high-value items against theft.
Be Informed
By going keyless, a business owner will be able to know who is in their building and also be able to avoid scams. Some keyless entry systems can keep a log of anyone who enters the building. This is a brilliant feature for solving any disputes that may arise. For example, if a problem arises, you will know who was in the building to speak to.
Control Remotely
A business or property owner will be able to keep control while not there. For example, if you manage a rental property, you can grant or deny access remotely for the start and end of their stay. You can set up and cancel fobs and cards at any time, allowing authorized person access for a limited time. You can also delete codes for keypad locks too.
