Door entry systems: What are they and how do they work?
A door entry system’s primary purpose is to control access to and from a building or restricted zone. If a visitor wishes to gain access to your area, they will first need to press a buzzer or call button to request access. The property owner or relevant security personnel will be able to quickly recognize the visitor, either through a voice call or through video, depending on the door entry system that has been installed. They can they either grant access or keep the door locked.
The most basic example of a door entry system is a buzzer system in a multi-tenant residential area; however, door entry systems can be far more advanced than this if needed by integrating network access control, CCTV systems, touch ID or token systems.
When it comes to Paxton door entry systems, there are three main components that make up the system:
- External panel
- Door control unit
- Internal monitor.

Combining door entry systems of access control

- Keypad systems
- Token systems
- Video or audio entry
The benefits of a full access control system installed across a large site are:
- Easily create multiple levels of security so that certain areas are restricted to high-level access, whereas other areas are available for all employees
- Keep full online records of comings and goings on your site
- Easily schedule specific access times and dates
- Simple to make quick changes and updates should employees leave or new personnel start
- With a token system you can track the movements of individual employees, leading to a better understanding of employee lateness and overall site time keeping
- Integrate CCTY systems for better overall security
- Manage your security systems remotely
