Security Access Control has many layers. It includes multiple types of systems to work together. One of these systems is Turnstiles. ELI Controls uses several brands and one of the best is by Orion Entrance Controls.
Most buildings secure the main entrance well. But what about the rest of the entry points?
Ask most facility teams about entrance security and they'll describe the main entrance: the lane, the credential reader, the lobby. It's usually well covered. The rest of the building is where it gets uneven.
ASIS International's recent Security Controls and Visibility Report puts tailgating and piggybacking among the most common security control incidents. Any door without something watching it is a candidate for this threat. Interior doors, stairwells, and restricted rooms each need their own answer.
We see entrance security as a chain, and not just a single checkpoint.
Our recent thought piece walks through what every type of entrance needs, plus five questions you can run against your own building.
