Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: How do I choose the right access control system for my facility?
A: The right system depends on your facility’s size, the level of security required, and the number of entry/exit points. For smaller buildings, a simple RFID or smart lock system might be enough. For larger commercial or industrial facilities, consider optical turnstiles or biometric readers.

Q: Do these products require professional installation?
A: Some access control systems, like turnstiles and large gates, may require professional installation. Smaller devices such as handheld metal detectors and smart locks can often be installed without professional help, but we always recommend consulting your product’s user manual for installation guidelines.

Q: Can these access control products be integrated with existing security systems?
A: Yes, many of our access control systems can be integrated with your existing security infrastructure, including CCTV, alarm systems, and automated building management systems.

Q: What is the maintenance required for these products?
A: Most access control systems require minimal maintenance. Routine inspections, occasional software updates (for digital systems), and regular cleaning are usually sufficient to keep the products in top working condition.

Q: Are all the access control products in stock?
A: Most of our products are in stock and ready to ship. However, larger items or custom configurations (like the SAF-T-GAS cabinets) may have longer lead times. Contact us for specific product availability.
