- Automatic lock controlled from a device or inside the building
- Scanner to let people with badges in and out
- Passcode requirement
You will want to choose how specific you get with who can get in and out and what you want to invest for the gate system. You may want each employee to have a scanner sticker in their car that the detector has to read to open the gate, and then all guests will have to check in or park in a specific area. An intercom system at the gate can also be helpful to talk with people trying to get in or out of your parking lot area or to have access into the building.
Talk with you business lawyer to see what signs you should have outside the building to warn people not to come in, and so you can press charges if someone trespasses and you had signs warning them before they entered the property. If something has occurred that has made you realize that you need a way to protect your staff and also the building and that you need to keep all people out, make sure that you get an estimate for a chain link fence and gate right away.
