In building management, this allows the right people to enter certain areas at the correct time, whether with a key card, password, PIN, mobile credentials or through biometric credentials like fingerprints. Access control systems and door hardware together determine who is allowed to enter or exit, and when they are allowed to do so. The past few years have seen an increased interest in access control products for their ability to filter through visitors and determine whether someone should access a facility or not.

However, not all EAC systems are created equal. While many focus on software capabilities like real-time monitoring and mobile credentialing, the true differentiator can often lie in the quality of the physical locks they rely on. High-grade mechanical locks provide the strength, durability, and security needed to complement advanced technologies, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.
