Commercial Access Control
Access control includes a range of technical solutions all designed to solve a single problem - the need to allow the free flow of authorised people whilst denying entry to unwanted visitors. By excluding these unwanted visitors and walk in thieves, access control helps to prevent the loss of personal possessions, items of stock and general office equipment, increasing the safety of employees and protecting sensitive information.
dsc security provides leading edge solutions to protect offices, factories, hospitals, public buildings, the retail sector, schools and colleges, using swipe cards, proximity fobs, fingerprint or eye recognition.
dsc security can install a complete package of Access Control Systems to allow communication from just one single location or through several linked Area Controllers to produce a system connected on your WAN. You can then control who has access to all of your doors from anywhere in the world providing you have an internet link to the remote sites.
You have already taken the
initial step by looking at the dsc security website
to find out more information
about Access Control Systems. The next step is
to contact us by
e-mail
or phone to arrange a FREE and CONFIDENTIAL visit from one of our
system designers to find out what level of security you require. If you
aren't sure what you want, we will go through all the available
advice and options with you so you can choose a system to suit your
needs. This will all be put into a written specification, which you
should receive within 3 working days from our survey.
Once you've decided that you would like dsc security to install your Access System, all you need to do is contact us to arrange a mutually convenient date to carry out the installation. This will generally be possible within 7-10 days time, and depending on our workload in many instances we can give you an earlier date if necessary.
We require your signature on a copy of the specification so that we know what you are expecting from us, and a deposit to secure the installation date. You can then sit back, allow us to install your Access System , the engineers will go through the basics of how to use the system with you, and leave you to enjoy the protection of a dsc security system..... nothing more to pay for the first 12 months and NO multi-year contracts you can't get out of without paying huge amounts!

used with both In and Out readers to stop people from passing there cards/fobs back to un-authorised visitors who do not have a valid card/fob of there own, Each user must swipe out before they can come in again. |

this requires the user to present their card/fob to the reader then to enter their PIN into the keypad to gain access into the protected area. |
