A Master Key System is a key plan whereby certain keys can open a pre-defined number of doors. This maintains better control, cuts down on key replacement costs and is convenient, as there are a lower number of keys in circulation. This system can also provide quick access to all rooms within the facility, e.g. for security staff and management personnel. This is not only convenient but can help save lives in cases of emergency.
A Security Alarm System is a system designed to detect an intrusion. The system utilizes Sensors located throughout your facility (Door/Window Contacts, Motion, Glass Break, etc.,) that signal your Alarm Panel to send an Alert to your Central Station once one of these Sensors detects activity. Meanwhile, an Access Control System is a type of security that is used to monitor and regulate entrance to your facility or specific areas within your facility.
