Access control is a means of controlling and monitoring the movement of people or vehicles through secured

access points such as doors, turnstiles and parking lot barriers. Access control systems allow you to decide

who goes where in your building (and at what times) so that only authorized personnel may gain entry.

Visitors can be clearly identified by issuing special visitor cards.

Integration of access control functionality with traditional intrusion

alarm and fire alarm functionality has never been easier or more economical.

In addition to the normal control of electrically locked doors, Credentials

with appropriate authority can also automatically disarm the intrusion alarm.

Arming and disarming can be controlled by individual area, or with proper

authority, multiple areas can be simultaneously controlled by a single user.

Choosing the right system involves identifying your own security

requirements and matching them to the products available in the marketplace.

Our systems provide built-in or external access card readers that accept

standard swipe, proximity, or even bank or credit cards. We also offer a key

chain sized personal identification device, which automatically signals your

presence and eliminates button pushing or code entry. Both card and key

chain ID are small, simple, and convenient. For businesses with electronic

locking systems, the devices eliminate the need for keys, not to mention all

the time and money spent keeping track of them.

Whether you want the simple control and protection for your business,

or the sophistication and security that is demanded in a large commercial or

government application, Richmond Alarm Company will economically

provide a solution.
