Intercoms and Access Control

Perth intercom systems installations are equipped with access control. It helps to secure the property with a fully functional intercom system that helps to track people entering and exiting your home or business. It allows you to visually check who is asking for access. The two-way audio allows the visitor to speak to you in real time. You can also check the video feed to identify the person. In addition, the access control system is equipped with touch screens that are installed indoors. It allows home and business owners to answer a visitor from the safety of the living room without even stepping out of the safety zone.

Access control is offered as part of intercom installation in Perth. It can be used for residential and commercial properties to prevent the entry of visitors. Large estates also use these surveillance techniques to enhance safety measures. An electronic system increases control over the property, assuring maximum safety of people as well as the property.

Primarily, three types of access control models are available. Discretionary Access Control (DAC), Mandatory Access Control (MAC), Role Based Access Control (RBAC). DAC is the simplest access control form and gives all users access permission. As a result, this is not recommended for commercial buildings. 

Organisations that need to maintain high confidentiality and security standards must resort to MAC. In this case, an individual is authorised permission to assign access guidelines to others in the organisation. The administrator, such as the Chief Security Officer, has the sole discretion to provide security clearance. 

RBAC is a user-friendly access control system that assigns security clearance to individuals based on their organisational responsibilities and roles. For example, security advisors may be given complete control of the building, while contractors or other employees may be given permission for access in certain sections. 

Intercom systems can be easily monitored remotely. Coretech Security provides a free smartphone app that provides real-time notifications to the user. It allows people to be in complete control of their security requirements 24/7. The two-way live audio and video feed helps users to confirm access requests even when they are away from home. 

Video intercom systems from leading brands such as Hikvision and Dahua are equipped with advanced features and ensure maximum security of the access control system. A comprehensive intercom system helps to integrate the CCTVs into your property and provides a simpler and user-friendly access control system. The most secure access control systems also have biometric door readers, smart locks, swipe cards, keypad readers, etc. Depending on your security needs, server, web, or cloud-based control systems are available. 

There are certain pros and cons of wired as well as wireless intercom systems. While wired systems consist of hardwired security components, wireless systems depend on networks to communicate. A wired connection operates as long as power supplies are available and may be difficult to operate during prolonged power cuts. Besides, wired communication can be disrupted if any wires are tripped. Modern home and business owners prefer Wireless Intercom systems. Due to the added layers of protection offered by a sophisticated wireless system, security concerns can be minimised. It not only helps people to monitor properties remotely and offer access from a distance, but it also helps to generate live feeds that can be checked round the clock. In some cases, the wireless systems are managed by professional security agencies that offer seamless service and ensure complete peace of mind.

Perth intercom systems installationcan be customised to individual requirements. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Therefore, you need to answer a few questions before choosing the right intercom system. If you require an intercom system that will be integrated with the access control system, its requirements will be different.
