Strong And Effective Magnetic Door Locks
Companies that want to secure their business premises and have top of the range access control that will allow only authorised personnel into different parts of the building are increasingly turning to biometric readers twinned with magnetic door locks to achieve high levels of control. Modern magnetic door locks are today just as strong as traditional door locks and have the added advantage of being almost impossible to force.
The magnetic door locks which consist of an electromagnet and an armature plate do have one drawback and that is that if the mains electricity fails then the door lock will become disabled. This can be prevented through supplying emergency power to the magnetic door lock with a UPS system. Many businesses prefer to keep the magnetic locks on mains power during business hours as in an emergency, such as a fire the locks will automatically disengage and allow the staff an easy exit from the building.
Magnetic door locks can also be used to control access to sensitive areas such as data storage facilities. In many instances the magnetic door locks are activated and deactivated using a card access system which relies on access cards with a magnetic strip containing information on the employee. These access cards are still popular in many businesses, but are slowly being replaced by the more advanced biometric readers which use information such as fingerprints to control access and are less prone to tampering.
The combination of magnetic door locks and biometric readers which use pattern recognition technology to grant access to different parts of the building has proves extremely successful over the years. Most companies that fit magnetic door locks will also be able to advise the organisation on other security systems that will make the building even more secure, such as CCTV camera systems, security alarm systems and fire alarms.
