Salto

Salto is a security system that provides intuitive access control to your school campus. Instead of providing faculty and staff with keys and cards that can get lost and copied, Salto systems utilize PINs or smartphones to unlock doors. This can also keep operational costs low since there’s no need to purchase keys. Additionally, these solutions can be added to existing locks, so they don’t require an entirely new system.

In case of suspicious activity, Salto’s monitoring services will alert you and regularly generate reports on the activity at your exits. The platform is intuitive to use, so you can always stay up-to-date on your school’s security. It’s also easy to add, remove, and change user access. So, if you hire a new teacher, you can easily give them access to appropriate buildings and doors. 

Suprema

Suprema is a biometrics-based system that is more secure than RF card-based systems. Like Salto, it makes access easier for authorized users since they don’t need a card and it lowers costs. However, unlike Salto, Suprema uses facial recognition to allow access. All authorized users, such as teachers and staff, will be able to enter the campus by presenting their faces to the reader by the door, so they don't need to pull out their phones or remember a key.

Like Salto, Suprema offers an intuitive platform that allows you to easily manage who has access. You can even create zones and door-by-door access, so certain users are only allowed in certain places or through certain doors. You’ll also get a log of activity, making it easy to see who comes and goes and if there’s any suspicious activity.

Supreme and Salto's systems give you the peace of mind that your campus is secure. To install an access control system in your Amarillo, TX, contact ASAP Security Services today!
