Access control systems refer to systems used to manage personnel movements in a business, facility, or building, depending on the person who has the authority to use certain devices and equipment in a facility. Such systems control not only the inputs, but also the transitions. For this reason, they are also known as the "access control system".
Turnstile systems, many cabinets, doors and door locks, as well as identification systems are included in this class. Advanced access control systems not only control the passage through doors or other access points, but also control access to devices and hardware, such as management panels and infrastructure boards.
Hotels are at the top of the list of businesses that need access control systems the most. In buildings and rooms where thousands of people enter and exit every day, access control systems provide a great advantage for both security and ease of use. In this article, you can find the main features you should pay attention to when choosing access control systems for hotels.
Identification Format
The first stage of access or access control is identification. The system decides whether to grant access based on a person's identity. There are many forms of identification. Some of these are fingerprinting, radio frequency identification (RFID) system, near field communication (NFC) systems, or optical technologies. Some of these methods require the use of a card or magnetic device, while others require the identification of biometric information of users in the system.
Card readers, optical readers, or biometric readers can compare information and make decisions about access authorization. It is automatically determined who should have rights to the object protected by the access control system.
Room access security is critical in the hospitality industry. Electronic locks with proximity via smartphones or Bluetooth-encrypted credentials provide the assurance guests are looking for and the assurance the hotel wants to provide.
Integrated Security
Controlling room control with everything that is managed and integrated with PMS from the same point as the control of common areas, main entrances, garages and restricted areas is a great advantage for hotel management.
The safe and other appliances in the room can be kept under safe control while away from the room, increasing the sense of safety and comfort of customers.
The use of in-room minibars is a separate source of income for hotels. With it, cost savings are possible with minibar utensils. Planned deployment of sensors reduces electricity consumption by up to 60% without affecting customer-perceived quality of service. In this respect, when choosing access control systems, cost-saving systems should be prioritized.
