ADT's business access control systems make it easy to regulate which visitors, employees or users can access specific areas or assets.
Time
Access control systems can also help control access to certain areas at differing times.
For example, you might only allow access to employees during trading hours or deny entry to visitors for a specific window of time.
Knowledge
ADT's access control systems gather valuable data that can be used to enhance your company's safety protocols and overall performance.
For example, data from employee log-in times can be used to produce insightful reports and uncover operational trends.

Pharmacies present a unique risk as they not only house sensitive data such as patient records but also handle medications that can attract unwanted theft. Customisable permissions via your access control system helps keep staff, customers and assets safe while deterring unwanted intruders.
Hospitality
From restaurant kitchens to hotel storerooms – employing the right level of access for every employee, customer and visitor ensures that everyone is protected. Set custom permissions for front, interior and back door access for employees or customers while allowing them to leave and return at late hours, knowing entry is tightly monitored.
Offices
Access control makes regulating entry simple, whether you're a small start-up operating in a shared workspace or have a dedicated floor in an office building. From protecting sensitive client data to allowing cleaners in after-hours – ADT helps you offer the right level of access for the right people.
