Let a Commercial Locksmith Handle Your Company’s Access Control Needs

Some of the locked areas of a business are obvious, but careful thought will reveal that there are plenty of other places in a store or factory that require the services of a Commercial Locksmith. These hidden areas often have advanced access control needs because of the number of employees that need to be able to get into them – and the number that need to stay on the other side of the door.

One of the most obvious areas that fall into this category is the cash room or accounting office. It is typical for managerial staff to have access to this area along with those who work in the room. On the other hand, most of the other employees need to be able to take care of their own cash-handling duties without actually going into the room itself. The same types of security restrictions may apply to any number of sensitive areas, such as the server room, supply closets etc. depending on the type of operation being run.

The old-fashioned way of handling this problem was simply to put locks on all of the relevant doors and give each authorized manager or employee a key to get in. Unfortunately, this leaves the locks vulnerable to copied keys, pilferage of original keys, disgruntled ex-employees, and other dangers. It also leaves the company open to hassles because someone is sure to lose a key every so often.

We suggest using a more modern method of access control to avoid these problems. Touchpad-controlled locks eliminate the need for keys or cards, and they’re far more secure in a multi-person environment. Codes are given to authorized personnel, and each person gets a different number. That way, if an employee leaves or is assigned to a different department, keeping the area secure is as easy as deleting his or her number from the lock.
