At IKM we work with you to design a secure cost-effective and future-proofed access control system for your premises whether you just need to control a single door or to create a complex system involving many interfaces across an entire building. As part of our service, IKM can provide integrated systems which link other building critical IP systems, such as Fire Alarm, Door Entry, CCTV and BMS. This integrated methodology ensures a cohesive and pragmatic approach to security requirements is achieved. We are a Honeywell Authorised Security Installer as well as an accredited Paxton Net2 Installer. These accreditations allow us to supply leading edge technology driven solutions which can be simply expanded and amended to add new users, new doors and even new buildings as and when required.
Using Network Video Recorders (NVR) as the centralised housing for all stored data as well as an easy to use software platform which will allow ongoing system administration long after the installation is completed. Video analytics integrated with recognition software can transform CCTV systems into an intelligent and effective detection and alert system. The systems deployed by IKM are capable of integration with other security based products such as Access Control, Intruder Alarms or Home Automation to provide a platform that can be monitored from almost anywhere in the world and assuring that the client or home owner has peace of mind over the security of their premises. These centralised star-wired POE systems allow customers to make use of a buildings Local Area Network infrastructure, representing significant savings in cabling, hardware and manpower resources whilst ensuring maximum coverage across the varied environment.
Door entry systems operate as audio and/or visual to enable visitors to be checked and screened either by voice or video image. Once validated, the visitor can be granted access via an electronic door release mechanism. Multiple handsets can be installed to give greater flexibility in both domestic and commercial applications.
Within apartment blocks, the convenience of a well-designed IP based door entry system comes into its own. An Audio/Visual Handsfree unit, neatly installed within the apartment allows the homeowner to view and speak to any potential visitor prior to granting them access. A multi-tenant system would usually benefit from a fully integrated system providing a centrally operated concierge switchboard allowing effective messaging between reception and residents.
IKM design, install and service a wide range of customised door entry systems for residential, commercial and industrial properties, from standalone door entry systems to fully integrated Intruder, CCTV & Access Control systems.
