Access Control Systems

Satanta Electronics installs a complete line of access control products including the NetAXS line from Honeywell. From a single door, to over one hundred doors, these systems can be operated and maintained over your local network or over the internet. Even multiple remote sites can be viewed and managed from one control screen. We install readers based on proximity cards, keypad pin entry, and biometric verification.

We install door strikes from HES and electromagnetic locks from Alarm Controls and Securitron.

System Integration

As a logical extension of our security and surveillance systems, access control technologies can be incorporated into a seamless package. Upon presentation of a valid proximity card to a door reader, a surveillance camera can store a high-definition image of the entrant, while the alarm system is simultaneously disarmed. Entry and exit logs will include synchronized video clips of all events.

New Technologies

Access control technologies have traditionally included pincode pushbutton systems and proximity cards or even magnetic stripe cards. New biometric scanners can allow access by fingerprint, iris scan, and facial recoginition. Some can be programmed to allow entry based on a fixed or temporary code transmitted by Bluetooth from a smartphone. This allows a temporary key to be sent over the cellular network to someone you'd like to have access to your controlled door. These temporary keys can be sent or revoked in seconds, eliminating costly trips and programming.

Many access control features that were formerly only available on larger commercial installations can now be installed on residential and small business systems. With Z-Wave locks, multiple access codes can be programmed to allow entry to your home or business, while each entry will be recorded in a log. This log can be viewed on a computer or smartphone over the internet.
