Access control systems are vital security features that facilitate automated approval of authorized individuals into restricted areas or manage essential assets without the need for vetting or reviewing. Infinity Technologies provide card access as one security control option for businesses in the Chicago area. We install security access control systems limiting entry to access cardholders in schools, hospitals, apartments, offices, and manufacturing plants.

Access cards are cost-effective compared to hiring security officers at important entryways in the premises. They are also vital in auditing or tracking sensitive information like financials. They leave a data trail regarding the handling of such information. Additionally, they restrict office access amenities like packing slots, reserving them for personnel.

Standard Components of a Card Access

Card access functions as an electronic key. The card has a unique code that the card reader authorizes to open the door. A remote access control system controls the card.

Card access has hidden features that enterprises can utilize for their benefit.

Some access control systems have numeric keys as an additional security measure. Users must input a security code after using the card to gain access. Infinity Technologies card access system has keyless entries.

There are three types of card access for various access systems. The oldest is the Wiegand key card. It uses unerasable and non-programmable binary data to transmit information.

The second card type is the swipe card, which has a magnetic stripe like a traditional credit card. The third and most common card uses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) for data transmission.

Infinity Technologies install

● Keyless Door Entry Systems – they do not require an additional security code with the card access for entry.

● Cloud-Based Access Control – enterprises can regulate and access systems remotely.

● Mobile Access and Credentials – users access the system using their mobile phones.

● Biometric Access Control and Facial Recognition Access Control System – users use their figure prints and facial features to enter the premise.

● Visitor Systems – we install an access control system and integrate it with a visitor system to manage visitor access.

Custom Access Levels

Businesses can provide different clearance levels to their personnel, limiting the top-level confidential areas to top staff. Custom access levels are crucial for managing authorizations in-house, especially for enterprises dealing with sensitive information or valuable properties.

Start and Expiry Dates

Businesses can modify the start and expiry dates of access cards. Date changes are significant for regulating access to guests or employees who have handed in their resignation dates.

Regulate Door Access

Businesses can regulate the door card reader systems to limit entirely after hours or during special operations. Automated locking and unlocking eliminate the need to perform such functions manually.

Manage Operations Remotely

Access cards are electronic. A central database controls the card remotely—this is significant for regulating multiple worksites. The systems use secure networks.

Custom Reports

Enterprises can run their employee activity. The reports get automatically emailed to pertinent stakeholders on a defined period. The report shows

● The number of times employees opened doors.

● Tracks visitors within the premise.

● The length of time doors stays open or closed.

● Card activity

Automated Lockdown

Enterprises can automatically lock down the access control system shutting all card access except for the master card. The lockdown is vital when managing activities like fraud and theft internally.
