Access Control Systems
$500 - $3,000 | 4-8 hours | Available 24/7
Triton Locksmith install card readers, key fob systems, keypad entry, and biometric access for $500-$3,000 per door. We work with HID, Kaba/Dormakaba, and Alarm Lock systems. Installation includes hardware, wiring, programming, and user enrollment.
What Types of Access Control Do We Install?
Proximity card readers, key fob systems, keypads, biometric scanners, and cloud-managed platforms. The right system depends on your security needs, number of doors, and budget. A single-door keypad for a back office costs $500. A multi-door HID system with audit trails costs $2,000+.
HID Global iCLASS and Kaba/Dormakaba are our go-to brands for commercial access control. Both are widely supported, reliable, and have good software for managing credentials. We've installed hundreds of HID readers across South Florida.
What Can Access Control Do That Keys Can't?
Audit trails, time-based access, instant revocation, and remote management. When an employee leaves, you deactivate their card in 5 seconds from your phone. No rekeying, no worrying about copied keys. You can also see exactly who entered which door and when.
According to a 2025 ASIS International survey, 78% of commercial properties with 20+ employees use some form of electronic access control. It's no longer a luxury. It's a standard operating practice.
Common Questions
How much does access control cost per door?
Basic keypad entry: $500-$800 per door. Card/fob reader: $800-$1,500 per door. Biometric (fingerprint): $1,200-$2,000 per door. Multi-door systems get volume pricing.
Can access control work with my existing locks?
In many cases yes. We install electric strikes or magnetic locks that work with your current door hardware. The electronic reader controls the electric lock while the mechanical hardware stays.
Do you offer cloud-based access control?
Yes. Cloud-managed systems let you add/remove users, set schedules, and view audit logs from your phone or computer. We install and configure the system and train you on the software.
What happens during a power outage?
Systems with electric strikes fail-secure (door stays locked). Magnetic lock systems fail-safe (door unlocks). We design the system based on your fire code requirements and security needs. Battery backup is available for critical doors.
Can you integrate access control with cameras?
Yes. Most modern access control platforms integrate with IP camera systems. We handle the access control side. For camera installation, we can recommend trusted partners in the area.
