A Strip District logistics company needs to grant warehouse floor access only during scheduled shifts and revoke credentials instantly when contracts end.
Our Commercial Access Control Installation Process
Site Survey and Planning
We walk your Pittsburgh property, document every access point, and recommend a system architecture that balances security requirements with budget and door hardware compatibility.
Hardware Installation
Credential readers, electric strikes or magnetic locks, and request-to-exit sensors are mounted and wired to your doors, with minimal disruption to daily business operations.
Controller Programming
We program access schedules, user credentials, and lockout rules into the system controller, including time-zone restrictions and holiday overrides relevant to your operation.
Staff Training and Handoff
We walk your designated administrator through adding and revoking users, pulling access reports, and handling common troubleshooting scenarios before we leave the site.
