Cost: access control
Compare equipped doors, lock alterations, permission management and recurring services. A standalone keypad is not a remotely administered system. Detail supply, installation, setup, training and replacement credentials.
Editorial update on 18 September 2026
Itemise each door
Separate reader, controller, lock or strike, power, cable and mechanical changes. Identify retained doors and exclusions. Compare tests at each entrance.
Price administration
List credentials, programming, software, licences and training. Ask about replacements, user additions and manager changes; a badge does not imply free access to all functions.
Identify dependencies
Check subscription, storage, connectivity, support and updates. Ask what remains usable after contract end and how necessary data is retrieved. Collection should follow need rather than sold options.

Frequently asked questions
Is a keypad code always shared?
No. Individual revocable codes depend on the model.
Does a badge prove who entered?
No. It may be lent or used by someone else. An event alone does not prove identity.
Must every entry be stored?
Do not assume so. Assess need, applicable rules, retention and access before enabling logs.
Will the door open without power?
Device dependent. Have appropriate behaviour for the door and building assessed and tested.
