Why PDK Access Control Is the Smart Choice for Modern Businesses
In today’s fast-paced, security-conscious world, businesses of all sizes need more than just locks and keys. Modern access control systems offer flexible, scalable, and smart ways to protect your property, employees, and data. At Tier One Technologies, we recommend and install ProdataKey (PDK) access control systems — one of the most powerful cloud-based access solutions on the market.
What Is Access Control?
Access control refers to a system that allows or restricts entry to a building or specific areas within it. Unlike traditional lock-and-key methods, digital access control systems can:
- Restrict access by time, role, or location
- Provide an audit trail of who entered and when
- Integrate with other systems like video surveillance and alarms
- Enable remote control and monitoring
