Access control systems provide a secure, convenient, flexible, and cost-effective way of managing authorised entry, with options to suit all requirements and budgets. These systems are designed to meet a variety of customer needs, from a single standalone door to multi-door and multi-site requirements, for both wired and wireless operation, as well as for non-connected outbuildings. 

System administration is made easy with software that can scale according to the size and complexity of the installation, with role-based permissions and active directory integration available where necessary. Remote access and cloud-based operation allow for properties to be managed remotely and for system software updates and routine maintenance to be performed more efficiently and cost-effectively. 

As customer requirements grow more complex, there is greater emphasis on device usability, with varied authentication methods, device connectivity, and system management options available. The trend is towards improved security and unified systems, integrating with CCTV, door entry, fire alarm, and intruder alarm systems.
