A modern access control system combines new technologies and trends to raise the standard of how people access buildings, such as homes and offices, to an unprecedented level. Designers and developers of commercial residential buildings can adapt and implement these new technologies to cater to market demands and future-proof their projects without compromising on design, quality and functionality.
So what are the standards for Access Control 3.0? There are 7 key pillars that every developer, property manager or system integrator should keep in mind whilst selecting the right access control system. From IP technology to mobile functionality, remote management to ensuring systems are cybersecure, these are key considerations for your next project.

Enhance Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity is crucial for residential projects. We think about this aspect when we develop our products and select our suppliers. We offer products which protect user privacy, do not record users or send data to third parties.
Interactive, two-way communication
Bi-directional video capabilities with a full HD-camera and robust processor are key considerations for an intercom in any design. Consider a system that can easily resist heavy rain, a dusty environment, and even attacks by vandals. Plus, consider a intercom that offers multiple access options, allow building operators decide how they provide authentication at the door: whether it’s using a mobile phone, an RFID card, a PIN code or a QR code.
Easy visitor management
For residents, an easy to operate system is important to include, allowing them to see what is going on in places where no intercom has been installed, and there is only an IP camera. Plus, with smart home integration, residents can turn on the air-conditioning, lighting or call the lift directly from the display on their unit. Sleek, high-definition and stylish design are nice bonus features for residential spaces.
Confidentially control entry
A slimline reader with a built-in controller keeps your design sleek and stylish, especially when installed on narrow door frames – whether indoors or outdoors. Consider a system that allows for various access options that work for your client’s needs such as RFID, RFID combined with mobile access via Bluetooth, or RFID with a keypad, which is perfect for projects that require two-factor authentication.
Mobile access control made easy
New technology available means tenants can open a door in 0.3 seconds making it convenient and secure for authorized occupants of multi-tenant buildings. This new technology can be used in four different modes depending on the needs of the building management and its occupants – Touch mode, Contactless tap via App, Motion mode or Card mode.
