Written by Joe Wilson | Dec 30, 2013 2:43:00 AM

Security systems for businesses have come a long way in the past few years. It used to be that you had to buy new locks for an entire office if someone lost their key.

 

Today, however, you can get a keyless access control system that keeps you in control no matter what.

 

Here are the top 5 reasons that a keyless access control system is the best option to keep your business secure.

 

1. Easy De-Activation - If someone loses their card, it can instantly be deactivated so that no one can use it to gain access. This is by far the most beneficial feature, as a lost key is a huge liability in a traditional system. And of course, if the employee finds their card again, it can be re-activated quickly and easily.

 

2. Easy to Create New Cards - When you hire a new employee, you can quickly create a new entry card. Cards can be controlled closely, but they are not difficult to program or de-program, making them very convenient to administer.

 

3. Customizable Entry Options - You can use generic key cards, or you can personalize entry cards as photo ID badges or key fobs. You can also get custom cards that are easy to return to your company without compromising the security of the building.

 

4. Traceable Use - Each key card or fob will have a unique identifier, so you can tell whose key card was used each time someone gains access to the building.

 

5. Activate Security Systems Quickly and Simply - Key cards can be integrated into your security system so that a quick swipe is all you need to activate all the security features of the building.

 

These are just 5 of the top reasons that a keyless access control system is your best option for a secure business. There are many other benefits that come with a complete security system that utilizes keyless access.
