To choose an access control system, following parameters
need to be considered:
 |
How many entry / exit points are there? |
 |
How many personnel of different categories are to be
identified |
 |
Duration and frequency of access |
 |
Is the capacity of the system adequate enough to
handle the total number of cards used with the system |
 |
The number of Shifts |
 |
Is Time & Attendance necessary? Is it to be
registered at the main gate or at the different entry / exit points in the complex? |
 |
If it is at the main gate, what will be the number
coming in by walking, by cycle, by two wheelers, by cars etc.? |
 |
Any Logging and Transaction Reports needed? |
 |
Sensitivity of the installation to be protected,
threat level etc. |
