Stand Alone (Off-line) Access Control Systems

Stand-Alone Access Control Systems represents the most basic level of security systems.  However,for some applications, basic is better.

For small-scale situations - satellite offices, bank branch locations – and even some larger establishments, stand-alone systems offer convenient, programmable access control at a low cost. The term "stand alone" is commonly used to describe a door access system that is not continuously connected to a host system .  Stand-alone access control systems secure one to 10 doors generally, and controlled through a built-in keypad, a laptop PC hookup at each door unit or through a connection to a panel .  Stand-alone access control systems are inexpensive compared to a networked access control systems that are hard wired and controlled using PC programming .  Installing the wiring can be a major expense and as much as 60 percent of the total system cost .  The difference is about $3,000 per door for a networked access control system versus $1,200 for stand-alone.

The vulnerability of the old manual lock and key system is eliminated.  A coded credential, which can still look like a key but is most often a card, can be deactivated if privileges are revoked or if the credential is lost, thus eliminating the need to rekey locks and re-issue keys .  Such basic features have made stand-alone access control devices the standard for hotels and college dormitories. Stand-alone systems offer straight-forward security.

Digital Keypads

To gain access through a digital keypad, the user has to enter a valid code or PIN (personal identification number). Some digital keypads have features that restrict access during holidays or other non-business hours. An audit trail of when and by whom access was granted is available on some models of digital keypads.
Advantages of Digital Keypads:

  • Eliminates the need for a mechanical key (except as an override)
  • Reduces the cost of rekeying and key replace
