Access control means having the ability to restrict or enable access to certain parts of your building and provides a safeguard to unauthorised persons entering the site or moving into a restricted area.
We fit access control in many applications. The use of access control can be to keep unauthorised people out of your premises, therefore safeguarding staff and people inside. Our systems are especially useful in schools where there is a need to prevent someone entering the school, but also in some cases restrict pupils to within the school perimeter to keep them in a safe environment.
Paxton Net2
Paxton Net2 systems are PC based and are for a higher security application where the management of doors and system users is of key importance.
The Paxton Net 2 software has many functions for setting lock and unlocking times of doors and restricting times when users have authorised access. User access can be via Fobs, code, card or Biometric or in higher security level doors a combination of two for example Fob and code.
Cards can be set up in Paxton Pro software to combine the cards with a photo ID, great for keeping your Company or staff ID and door security together.
A typical door set up would consist of the following.
- A Paxton proximity reader, keypad or IEVO Biometric reader on one side of the door
- On the protected side of the door you would have
- A Magnetic Lock or electric release.
- A request to exit button or door handle for normal egress
- An emergency Break-glass point for emergency egress
- A fire alarm relay to release the door in the event of fire activation
- Power supply housing the door controller and back up battery supply
Door entry systems
Door Entry systems are the first point a site visitor will come across where external access has been restricted.
Door entry systems can consist of a simple audio call station answered by an audio handset with door release feature to allow visitor entry.
A video entry system provides the additional visual identification when communicating and permitting entry.
More complex systems like Paxton Net 2 Entry provides additional features that work in line with clients existing infra structure. SIP compatibility – means a door can be answered from smartphone, tablet or PC. In environments that don’t necessarily have a static front of house reception this can be a great advantage.
Paxton Net 2 Entry Systems can also be personalised with a company logo or school crest as a welcome screen.
Authorised users can gain entry with fobs, cards or code.
TEC Fire & security can also design and install multi calling digital systems that are ideally suited for student accommodation and multiple occupancy buildings. The advantage of the digital system means that instead of lots of flat or apartment numbers you can simply type in the door number to communicate via audio or video with the occupant.
