Every time a mechanical key is lost or stolen, or an employee leaves the company, that facility is vulnerable until steps are taken to re-key the locks to prevent unauthorised access.
This can be both costly and inconvenient and consequently it is often left until a theft takes place before the necessary steps are taken to reinstate a proper level of security.
Electronic credentials and electronic access control locks empower building owners to maintain control of their facilities at a much lower cost. By providing each employee with their own unique PIN or credential that cannot easily be duplicated, (and can easily be replaced when lost or stolen) a higher level of security and access control can be maintained.
