In an age when the expectation is that businesses are managing
risk and recognising their responsibility under duties of care,
being able to manage the who's, what's, where's and why's of access
to your site has never been more important.
A Pointer access control system utilises the
latest in IT and IP
technologies in order to ensure that your premises, people and data
are protected at all times. After all, the consequences of a breach
of your organisation's place of work in terms of health, safety and
security could be reputation destroying.
In the past, the
worlds of IT and electronic security rarely overlapped, however the
digital revolution has changed the landscape and increasingly
allowing IT and electronic security to work from a common
infrastructure.
Cost-Effective
As well as providing maximum protection, all access control systems
installed by Pointer also function as cost-effective, fully
integrated management information tools. Exception only reporting
means that these systems are more straightforward than ever to
operate.
Access Control systems and equipment no longer simply provide a
means to unlock doors, barriers and turnstiles, but provide
security conscious end-users with a platform on which they can
build their bespoke security systems.
We monitor what is going on by signalling what shouldn't be, so
there is less process management at every level. And since our
systems are all Windows-based, integration with your own LAN, WAN
or Intranet is simple too.

Pointer access control systems use the latest in smart card
technology, which can be linked to a host of applications, such as
vending, car park access or producing cumulative audits of staff
flexitime. Systems can provide and link in with networked
management of:
- Site visitors
- Lobby Access
- Energy/ IT Systems
The production of audit trails, roll call lists or timekeeping
records couldn't be easier. Updates on name changes, zone access or
identity photos is equally uncomplicated, as all software can be
configured and managed from your PC workstation.
The end result is the assurance that your staff are protected every
minute of every day.
