Did you know the AP1 keypad can do more than open your gate?

AP1 is a multi-purpose keypad that can be configured for much more than customer gate entry, including:
️ Door control
️ Alarm monitoring
️ Request-to-exit devices
️ Gate access
️ Elevator access control

It's all about giving operators greater flexibility to create an access-control setup that works for your facility.

Have an idea for your site? Talk to us about what's possible with the AP1 keypad.

️ Is your old access-control hardware becoming a security risk?

Technology doesn't last forever, and outdated access-control equipment can eventually become harder to support, maintain and secure.

E-Waste Day on the 14th October is a good reminder to review the hardware around your facility.

Is it still supported?
Is replacement hardware available?
Is it keeping up with your current security needs?
What happens when it reaches the end of its life?

Replacing outdated equipment isn't just about upgrading technology. It can also be key to maintaining a secure, reliable facility.

Security shouldn't get in the way of customer experience.

For self-storage customers, accessing their unit should be simple, convenient and hassle-free.

The best security technology works quietly in the background, helping keep facilities secure while making it easy for authorised customers to get where they need to go.

This CX Day on 6th October, was a good reminder that security and customer experience don't have to compete.

When security is designed with the customer in mind, everyone wins.
