Use Restricted Keys To Secure Your Home Or Business
Posted March 4th, 2011 | No Comments
Securing your home or business against criminals is vital and need not be expensive or time consuming.
Most home owners would not consider restricted key systems when choosing locks for their home simply because they are NOT AWARE they are available, it is often considered a security solution only for businesses. Restricted keys enhance the security provided by any lock and without them, even ‘high security’ locks can be compromised by the keys being copied at random with little or no control.
At Authorized Access we will fit a security lock to your door then register its keys to YOU; this stops duplicate keys being cut without your knowledge, giving you total control of the keys to your home or business.
Restricted keys allow you to give a cleaner or other tradesman the key to your home and as long as you get it back, you know they will have been unable to obtain copies. At work, staff issued with keys to premises are unable to have extra keys cut without your express permission, again GIVING YOU TOTAL CONTROL over who has access to your premises.
Where would this be useful?
- Business premises with multiple key holders.
- Keep control and know which members of staff have keys
- At home where keys are made available to cleaners, neighbours, tradesmen etc.
- As long as you get the keys back you know nobody has been able to get copies made
- Churches, Schools, Clubs and Sports Clubs with multiple key holders.
- Nobody who is unauthorized will be able to get keys copied
- Any situation where key control is required.
- Stay in control of your security
IN BUSINESS
Looking after property, stock and the people who work within the business makes great business sense. It is vital that you make sure that the security measures taken are appropriate, realistic and cost effective. You need to keep criminals out while allowing your customers, suppliers and employees in.
Your business activity will guide your approach to security. In simple terms, high value products will attract more criminal activity and demand a higher level of security, however even those items with a perceived low cost value will be attractive to somebody. Taking a logical approach to securing your business will help ensure you don’t miss anything that might help deter crime. “In the current climate, the effect of interruption to business is greater than ever before.
By changing the locks and installing a RESTRICTED KEY SYSTEM you guarantee that you are in total control of who has keys and therefore access, to your property. Taking these simple steps now may save you from considerable heartache and upset later and costs little more than other non restricted options.
