Access Control: The Heart of Smart Building Integration
In today’s intelligent buildings, access control is no longer just a security system — it’s the central hub that connects people, systems, and spaces. When integrated with car parking, visitor management, fire alarms, CCTV, and HR software, it transforms buildings into truly smart and responsive environments.
At ControlA, we go beyond traditional access control by integrating our systems through Rosetta™, enabling seamless connectivity between physical security and digital workplace systems — all under one unified platform.
Car Parking Integration: From Entry to Elevators
Smart parking begins with license plate recognition (LPR) and ends with secure, credential-based access to buildings and elevators. Integration with access control makes this journey seamless.
Key benefits:
LPR-based gate access for staff and visitors
One ID or mobile credential for both vehicle and building access
Access schedules (e.g., time-limited or area-specific)
Parking data logs linked to user profiles
Example: An employee drives in with LPR, enters the building with face recognition, and uses the elevator only to authorized floors — no separate cards or delays.
Visitor Management Integration: Frictionless Entry, Real-Time Security
Integrated visitor management allows guests to pre-register and receive a QR code or mobile credential, eliminating manual check-ins and improving security.
Capabilities include:
Pre-registration and self-check-in kiosks
Automated host notifications
Access rules (specific doors, floors, times)
Integration with turnstiles, lifts, and doors
Rosetta connects visitor systems to access control and CCTV, ensuring every guest movement is secure and trackable.
Fire Alarm Integration: Intelligent Emergency Response
Access control and fire safety must work together to protect lives. In emergencies, systems should automatically respond.
Integrated features:
Unlocking emergency exits upon fire alarm activation
Disabling elevator use or redirecting them
Emergency door release for evacuation
Event logging for post-incident review
Bonus: Evacuation reports can be matched with access logs and CCTV for accountability.
CCTV Integration: Visual Intelligence for Every Event
When access control is integrated with CCTV, security becomes smarter and more proactive.
Features include:
Real-time video linked to access events
Playback on denied entry, tailgating, or forced doors
Face capture comparison with access logs
Central monitoring via unified interface (e.g., Verkada or Avigilon)
This creates a powerful link between access data and visual confirmation, enabling faster investigations and real-time awareness.
HR Software Integration: Smarter People Management
By integrating access control with HR software (like Mashr.asia), buildings become people-aware and HR becomes security-smart.
Benefits include:
Sync employee profiles and departments with access rights
Auto-assign or revoke access based on job status or location
Real-time attendance tracking via access logs
Link access data with payroll, leave, and shift management
Use case: A new employee added to HR software is instantly issued mobile credentials and access permissions based on their role, without double entry.
