Access control and door control cover everything from simple entry solutions like wave-to-open switches, washroom kits, and electric strikes, to fully networked multi-site systems that secure hundreds of doors across commercial and multi-residential properties.
Even the smallest add-ons, such as a single electric strike, are part of the bigger access control picture.
At its core, access control is about managing who gets in, when, and how, while improving convenience, compliance, and safety for end-users.
From Simple to Scalable
- Simple Door Control: Wave-to-open switches, push-to-exit kits, or a single electric strike
- Intermediate Systems: Keypads, card readers, and standalone controllers
- Advanced Access Control: Cloud-managed systems with mobile credentials, integrations, and event monitoring
Whether you’re just starting with basic door hardware or ready to expand into enterprise-grade systems, access control is one of the fastest-growing opportunities for electricians, security installers, locksmiths, and integrators.
