The Future of Access Control is Here

Periodic updates are part of a proactive approach to school security, meaning a scalable system is key to protecting students and staff. Whenever new threats emerge, updating security shouldn’t take months. That’s why companies like Salto offer a wide range of IP-based access control solutions. Salto’s electronic locks, wall readers, and smart credentials are designed to easily integrate with your existing system, allowing for gradual growth and upgrades to match a shifting school environment. 

Biometric devices are among the most versatile additions to your school security system, using data such as fingerprints, iris scans, or facial recognition, to verify a person’s identity. 

Non-invasive scanning technology is another type of smart access control solution becoming increasingly necessary. By scanning a person without making physical contact, security can detect prohibited items without the hassle and intrusiveness of traditional access control systems.

The Suprema BioStation 3

Suprema is one of the leading brands in commercial security, and the BioStation 3 is their top-of-the-line access control solution. 

Offering multiple contactless entry methods in a single, compact device, the BioStation 3 sets a new standard in access control. Its smart camera recognizes faces, even when someone is wearing a mask, and can read smartphones, QR codes, and RFID cards. An integrated intercom system also makes communication between various access points as easy as tapping on a BioStation’s interface. A final feature worth mentioning is the industry-leading privacy protection standards of all Suprema products. 

For schools, installing a BioStation in every classroom door provides students with the means of communicating with each other in an emergency, and keeping doors locked during active shooter situations.
