Security solutions today encompass much more than just intrusion protection and access control, as modern buildings have increasingly complex security needs.
Visitor management, parking management, and video intercom systems are common elements in modern office buildings.
Mactwin offers modern, flexible and user-friendly security solutions, which can be seamlessly integrated into a central Security Management System.
Modern security systems work together integrally.
They can also work with your own systems, such as those for climate control, visitor management or HRM.
This reduces the number of administrative actions and improves efficiency. In addition, the security level is increased. We call this “Connected Security. A Security Management System (SMS) takes care of the connection of the individual systems.
This allows all connected systems to be centrally controlled and managed.
With an SMS, all information comes together in one simple overview.
This is practical to use because you no longer have to delve into underlying systems.
Connected Security also provides you with a lot of useful (management) information and increases your security level.
24/7 convenience and savings
If the building or the spaces within it can be used 24/7, then Connected Security is of great value.
By linking systems, for example, the burglar alarm system will automatically turn on when there are no more people present.
If the building management system is also connected, the heating and the air conditioning system are automatically switched off or on at the same time.
These links automate processes, which is user-friendly and saves energy costs.
These are just a few examples of the myriad of possibilities that Connected Security offers for modern (multi-tenant) offices.
The illustration above gives a general overview of the many possibilities.
Versatile access control
Thanks to Connected Security, employees can use a single means of access (e.g. card, tag or telephone) to enable/disable the burglar alarm system , issue print orders or pay in the company restaurant.
You can also centrally operate and manage the systems of all your properties.
And because of the link with the HRM platform, new employees are automatically given access rights, which are automatically revoked when they leave employment.
With wireless electronic cylinders and mobile access, you can also manage your interior doors easily and cost-effectively.
Ultimate, central control, in other words.
Flexible for a fixed fee
More and more people are opting for a form of Security as a Service (SECaaS).
The various tenants of office spaces can access their own system via the Cloud, without having access to that of other tenants.
With SECaaS, you pay a fixed rate per month, including maintenance and software upgrades.
Since the application and associated components remain the property of the supplier, you don’t have to make any major investments.
This makes it possible to make adjustments or extensions quickly and flexibly.
SECaaS can be supplemented with other services, such as remote card management.
Parking management
Access to the car park based on biometric data, license plate recognition or smartphones.
You can quickly and easily manage access for employees and visitors.
You can create groups and automatically assign permissions.
Visitors can be registered in advance with their license plate number so that they can access the parking spaces on the day of their appointment.
This solution is also ideal for property managers of multi-tenant buildings.
Welcoming digital reception
With a digital reception, you can automate the reception function.
Central to this affordable solution is the information kiosk with touchscreen where visitors can log in.
After registration, the screen shows a map with the route.
If the digital reception is linked to the access control system, the kiosk will also automatically issue a visitor’s pass and take it back after the visit.
A talk/listen connection with the host is possible.
Insight in the event of fire and calamities
By linking fire detection and evacuation systems to the security systems, you can increase safety.
A link with the camera system , for example, makes it possible to verify a fire and see/assess whether the evacuation roads are clear.
In the event of a fire alarm, a link with the access control system provides an immediate overview of the people who are in the building.
Always up-to-date with remote management
Managing and maintaining your systems remotely is efficient and saves call-out costs and the environment.
Remote services can include software updates, proactive monitoring of system availability, card management, monitoring and analysis, alarm notifications, and video image security.
