Who Would Benefit from Access Control?
There are many levels of access control available for residential buildings. All offer various degrees of security and convenience from a simple door bell connected to a video through to complete networked systems.
Door Entry System for a Family Home.
At the least, a family home benefits from a door bell entry system that allows the home owner to see who is visiting and decide whether or not to open the door. Remote systems have become popular recently allowing you to to speak to the visitor to explain you’re not home or even grant entry so that they may leave a package. Keyless entry is also useful for families with adult children who may arrive home late without keys, or school children who are home before parents.

Almost all properties, whether family home, block of flats, care home or country estate, can benefit from automatic gates. They are a first line of defence in deterring unwanted visitors.
