Access control in Valjevo. A lost card doesn't mean a new lock

Access control opens a door with a card, tag or code only for the people you've allowed, and keeps a log of who came in and when. On each door we fit a reader, a magnetic lock or electric strike and an exit button, then enter the cards and set the rules: who, which doors and when. That way, many people use many doors without a bunch of keys. We install access control from Belgrade to the smallest towns in Serbia, and the firm is registered in Valjevo.

What we do

  • Cards and keyring tags for staff or residents
  • Electric locks, both magnetic locks and strikes
  • Card readers on the door, outside or on both sides
  • Keypads for entry by code, alone or with a card
  • An exit button on the inside
  • An entry log: who came in, when and through which door
  • The same cards can work for time and attendance
  • Backup power to keep working in a power cut

When you need it

  • Lots of people work in your office and the keys are hard to keep track of. Everyone gets a card, and you decide who can go into which room.

  • Someone has lost the storeroom key, or a leaver never gave theirs back, so the lock is being changed again. If it were a card, you'd just delete it.

  • Anyone can open the building entrance and shared rooms such as the basement or bike store, and you want only residents to get in.

  • Your server room or archive must stay locked to all but a few people, and you'd like to see who has been in and when.

Good to know

Electric locks behave in one of two ways when the power goes. A lock that unlocks without power (fail-safe), such as a magnetic lock, leaves the door free, so it goes where people must always be able to get through. A lock that stays locked without power (fail-secure) keeps a room shut, such as a storeroom or server room. From such a room, people can usually still leave by the handle; the exit button works only with power. We pick one of the two types for each door.

How we work

  1. You list the doors.

    Tell us which doors need control, how many people get cards and who may go where, and send photos of each door from both sides, frame included.

  2. We pick each door's lock.

    Based on the door and frame, we choose a magnetic lock or an electric strike and decide what the door does without power.

  3. We fit the hardware.

    We fit the reader, lock, exit button and controller, and cable them to the power supply and the network.

  4. We add cards and rules.

    We assign each card or tag to a person, doors and times, then check that every card opens only the doors it should.

  5. We hand over card management.

    We walk you through adding a new card, deleting a lost one and looking up who has been in.

What happens when someone loses a card?

You delete that card from the system, and from then on it opens no door, while the lock and everyone else's cards stay as they are. The person gets a new card with the same permissions. The entry log can even show whether anyone tried the lost card, if the system records refused attempts.

Which is better: a card, a tag or a code?

For most doors a card or tag is enough, with a code as an extra check. Cards and tags usually use the same technology and differ only in shape: a card fits in a wallet, a tag goes on a keyring. A code can't be lost, but it's easily passed on, so you can't tell who really came in.

How much does access control for one door cost?

One door needs a reader, a lock, an exit button, a controller and power, and the lock type matters most. Each further door gets its own reader, lock and button, and the number of cards and the distance to the controller count too. Your list of doors and the photos show us which lock suits each door.
