Those who have managed their work environment with the help of a good access control system would never consider trying to live without this essential management tool. The ability to set specific access privileges for each area of your building, and to change these privileges on the fly is the key driving factor enabling – even requiring – this investment. But the ability to produce detailed reports on almost any event or transaction – who went where in the building and at what time, critical events from building systems, etc., make the decision to implement access control a “slam dunk”.
Bond Securcom considers access control to be the fundamental building block in any security design. Even simple intrusion systems can be rendered virtually useless if monitored doors are accessible to any and all building occupants and visitors. Proper selection of this fundamental building block is, therefore the essential starting point in any security design, and the choice of system can leave subsequent security decisions as either almost unsolvable (or solvable only at great cost), or straightforward, powerful, and effective. Bond Securcom has therefore carefully selected a small range of access control manufacturers and systems to provide a wide range of choice in design approach while maximizing quality, operability, and total cost of ownership.
Bond Securcom can support many manufacturers' brands of access control system, but we tend to recommend one of the following systems

C-Cure 9000 by Software House (Tyco)

"In addition to being a powerful access control system in its own right, this enterprise level system is an excellent integration platform, providing support for a broad range of video (eg Avigilon, exacqVision), emergency intercom (eg TOA), intrusion (DSC), and other security systems. C-Cure 9000 provides exceptional command and control capabilities to system users while empowering customers to utilize IT-standard tools and distributed architecture to leverage existing IT investments."

Keyscan VII - by Keyscan

"Access control systems are about more than monitoring doors; they are an integral part of any security system and give users a convenient platform to manage their facilities. Traditional keys cannot track who or when people are accessing your building, and when keys go missing, rekeying locks can be extremely expensive. Keyscan access control systems solve all of these problems and many more . . ."
