8 Reasons to Upgrade Your Access Control System: Time for a Change?

Your company’s security needs are constantly evolving, which can result in an upgrade to your physical access control system. The following list outlines the various reasons why your company may need to upgrade your access control system. 

  1. Your company merges or acquires another company.
    As your company begins a merger or an acquisition, it can be costly to integrate two different legacy systems. Instead of trying to integrate two systems, look into upgrading the access control system. More often than not, upgrading is just as costly as merging two systems. 

  2. You need a common system standard for multiple locations.
    Managing multiple company locations with different security systems is a challenging process. Upgrading the security systems at all locations is a solution to unify the security systems and create a common standard across the organization. In the long run, this will allow for higher security and more efficient use of your resources. 

  3. Your organization is consolidating, adding locations, or relocating.
    This will require an entire mass rebadge. Upgrading to a new system may be a cost-effective way to manage the rebadge and ensure everyone is using one common security standard.

  4. Your brand image or logo changes.
    A rebrand of your organization results in a change of security cards. Changing your security cards is a perfect time to look into new security systems with better card technology.

  5. Your company needs to incorporate new, innovative card applications to meet employee needs.
    An outdated system can pose risks for your employees. Upgrading your access control system can reduce liabilities within your company.

  6. Your company needs to minimize risk by upgrading an outdated system.
    An outdated system can pose risks for your employees. Upgrading your access control system can reduce liabilities within your company.

  7. Your security requirements change.
    New regulatory requirements can force your company to make security changes.

  8. You have a breach in security or a security event occurs.
    Older security systems are subject to breaches. If your company experiences an event that compromised your security, it is time to upgrade your system.
