Access Control for Las Vegas Businesses

An access control system replaces metal keys with something you can switch on and off. When someone leaves, you cancel one credential and nothing is rekeyed. Each door needs the right lock, power and release.

Why the Lock Decides the Project

Strikes, mag locks and exit devices with electric latch retraction each fit different doors. So we start with the door, not the reader. People use a card, a fob, a code or a phone, and you decide who opens which door and when. The right lock, power and exit release at each door are what make it work.

Settle These Before Anyone Drills

  • Which doors need control, and who needs each one.
  • Which lock fits each door.
  • How people get out, under fire and life safety rules.
  • Which doors lock and which unlock when the power fails.

Owner Questions

What happens when someone leaves?

You cancel that one credential, and nothing is rekeyed. That is the main reason businesses move from keys to access control.
