Access Control Integration: You can’t buy it online

Integration is the Future After bearing witness to 27 years of progress and changes in the security industry, I can name one word that is synonymous with success in Access Control: Integration. While the specific access control needs for a variety of businesses may be different, the need for a flexible, integrated system is always a must and is coupled with one common denominator: The need to secure an environment. Today, no one is safe, and no place is truly secure without some form of protection. For many years, security guards were the only option. Then for the past 15 years, cameras became the “norm.” However, today, people can’t afford 24/7 guards, and along with watching their doors, they want to “lock” their doors and “control” who enters. It’s clear that integration is needed more now than ever before; And by integration I don’t only mean integrating with video, I mean integrating with “everything” and when you start integrating everything there is good news and more goods news…. What ? No bad news? Nope; and here’s why: When you start to integrate multiple technologies for your customers two things happen: It Differentiates you from the guy who “just installs” cameras or “Just installs locks” Gives you job security- You cannot “BUY” integration on line, you cannot “buy” integration at the Big Box Club Stores and you can’t buy integration in a pre-bundled DIY kit So now what? Your customer can only buy integration from YOU: the service provider. And what is going to make you stand out from the rest? Your ability to provide integration easily, affordably and efficiently. If you’re not experienced in integration, don’t worry. Through time-tested software and hardware, Keri Systems has everything you need to be successful, so you can differentiate yourself from the rest. I’ve watched the innovators and developers at Keri Systems respond to this need over the years, and the current systems offer an unmatched potential for integrating multiple technologies. Whether a project has an existing infrastructure (such as HID readers and cards, Pin Pads, Pin-pads w/Prox cards, Biometrics, Facial Recognition , or Iris recognition, etc.) that needs to interface with Keri, or they are starting from scratch, Keri has it covered. Keri also works very closely with other technology partners in the security industry. Currently, there are new integration projects in place for Bluetooth/Wireless Locks, Time and Attendance, Visitor Management, Video Management/Integration, Pedestrian Turnstiles and high-end Facility Intercom.; not to mention our already existing telephone entry, elevator control and wireless gate/parking solutions. Many years of thoughtful Keri design and creative thinking means they’re not just an access control company. The push for integration and early adaptation to a variety of hardware companies, as well as software companies, means that the potential for flexibility and growth is endless. In addition, Keri is aware of what the future holds and that both the integrators as well as the end-users want portable and “CLOUD” solutions. Keri has you covered there as well. Our mobile “On the Go “browser-based “Doors.Web” client is already in use and a cloud solution is scheduled to be released soon.
