- Multifamily access control systems are most commonly used to limit access through the front doors of an apartment building or complex so that only residents and staff can get in. Many modern apartment buildings also have amenities that need to be secured, such as pools, fitness centers, conference rooms, offices and mailrooms. Installing readers at the entrances to these spaces helps ensure that only approved tenants and staff can access apartment amenities.
- Residents can unlock doors remotely or grant access to visitors without physical keys or cards using an app. This system supports enhanced security features like encryption and can provide notifications of access events directly to a users phone. Apartment intercom systems enhance building security by enabling communication between residents and visitors before granting access. These systems typically include a door release mechanism that residents can activate from their apartment to allow entry.
- If you can get a phone line to the door, you can control access with a local phone # to the resident who can allow them in, the intercom calls that resident and they press a # to let them in. We also have a code that goes to the office and 911. We allow any local # including cell phones. Then at the door for privacy we link a name and a code # so that their apartment #'s arent provided.
- Key fob access control is one of the most common types of apartment access control. A key fob, also known as a key card, is used to tap the reader and grant access to a building. Residents or staff members present their fob or card to the access reader at the building's entrance, which scans the credential and verifies their identity.
