Access Control Systems For Safer Entry

Iris CCTV installs and maintains access control systems across the Northern Rivers, including Grafton, Ballina, Yamba, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour and Woolgoolga. Access control allows property owners to manage exactly who can enter a building, reducing risks tied to lost keys or unauthorised visitors. Modern systems can include intercoms, swipe cards, electronic locks and biometric scanners, each designed to provide a secure and user-friendly way to regulate entry. These solutions not only improve daily security but also provide clear records of movement for auditing or compliance purposes. With more than 15 years of expertise, Iris CCTV designs installations that suit everything from small businesses to large commercial facilities.


Our licensed team ensures systems are set up correctly and operate with long-term reliability. To learn more about access control systems and how they can benefit your property, call us today on (02) 6642 4170.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are access control systems used for?

    Access control systems are designed to regulate who can enter or exit a property, building or specific room. They replace or enhance traditional keys by using intercoms, swipe cards, codes or biometric identification. Beyond just restricting access, these systems also record who enters and exits, providing an audit trail that can be useful for security reviews or compliance checks.

  • Can access control systems be integrated with CCTV?

    Yes. Integration allows access events to be linked with camera footage, so every entry or attempted entry can be reviewed visually. For example, when a door is opened with a swipe card, the system can automatically record video from the nearest camera. This feature strengthens overall security by combining real-time data with visual evidence.

  • What happens if the system loses power?

    Most access control systems are designed with backup power options such as batteries or connection to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This ensures that doors can still be locked or opened safely during outages. In many cases, systems also include fail-safe or fail-secure modes, allowing property owners to decide whether doors should remain locked or unlocked in an emergency.

Practical Solutions For Everyday Security

Access control technology offers flexibility that traditional locks and keys cannot match. Intercoms allow property owners to screen visitors before granting entry, while swipe card or code systems can be programmed and updated quickly without changing hardware. Biometric options, such as fingerprint or facial recognition, provide even higher levels of protection for businesses handling sensitive data or valuable assets. These systems can also be scaled to match growth, making them suitable for both small offices and large government or industrial facilities. By combining convenience with reliable protection, access control makes day-to-day security simple and effective.
