Doors & controlled areas
Review door hardware, controllers, power, communications, and the boundary between public, staff, and restricted areas.

Access Control
The right access, for the right person, with a record you can follow.
Discuss your projectWhat needs to work better?
Shared credentials, unclear permissions, and disconnected door events make it difficult to know who should be where. A useful access system connects physical door behavior with the organization’s authorization process.
Design the complete requirement.
Credentials & permissions
Define how credentials are issued, changed, and withdrawn, with time schedules and role-based access appropriate to the operation.
Events & exceptions
Plan how operators review denied access, forced or held-open doors, visitor exceptions, and other events that need attention.
Integrations & dependencies
Assess readers, controllers, door hardware, identity workflows, and any video or visitor-management links. Emergency egress and life-safety interfaces need appropriate specialist coordination; access control must not be treated as a substitute for that review.
Agree the handover before the work starts.
Include the relevant deliverables in the project scope, so both teams know what acceptance means.
- An agreed door schedule and permission model
- Tests for normal access, denied access, and agreed fault scenarios
- Credential administration and operator handover guidance
Questions before you start
Can existing credentials or readers be reused?
That depends on credential technology, reader/controller support, licensing, and the security requirements. LFS reviews the installed equipment before making a recommendation.
Is PointGuard Access the same as door access control?
No. PointGuard Access is an LFS-developed security operations product. A physical access-control system includes field hardware and controls; a product integration is a separate scope decision.
What happens during a power or network interruption?
Required behavior must be agreed for each opening and supported by the hardware, power design, and life-safety requirements. It is part of the design and commissioning discussion, not a universal setting.
