Solutions designed around risk and operations

Different areas require various levels of control. A main entrance, warehouse, plant room, office floor, and high-value storage area may each need a distinct access policy. Your solution should reflect the consequence of unauthorised entry while allowing legitimate users to move efficiently.

By aligning access permissions with roles, times and locations, businesses can strengthen operational control without creating unnecessary friction.

Manage access to your people, premises and restricted areas with a solution designed around your organisation. Chubb helps businesses plan, implement and maintain access control systems that balance security, usability, and future needs.

Control permissions efficiently

Give authorised administrators a structured way to manage access by user, role, time, and location.

Respond to organisational change

Update or remove permissions without the disruption associated with replacing physical keys.

Support duty of care

Help manage entry to controlled or higher-risk areas and maintain appropriate operational records.

Create a scalable approach

Plan for additional doors, people, tenants, or sites as the organisation develops.

Smart access control for changing workplaces

Smart access control can support more convenient credential options, remote administration, and timely permission changes, depending on the chosen platform. It can be particularly useful for organisations managing hybrid work, contractors, temporary users, or multiple premises.

The right design should also consider resilience, cyber security responsibilities, data governance and what happens if connectivity or power is interrupted.

Integration and security management systems

Access control solutions may be integrated with video surveillance, intercoms, intruder detection, visitor processes, or wider security management systems. Used appropriately, integration can help authorised teams verify events, simplify selected tasks, and build a more consistent operational picture.

Integration should have a defined purpose. Chubb can help assess where connected workflows may add value and where standalone operation may be more proportionate.

Lifecycle support and access control maintenance

Permissions, door hardware, software, and user requirements change over time. Access control maintenance helps identify faults, maintain system performance, and support the continued operation of critical entry points.

A lifecycle plan may include preventive maintenance, corrective support, software considerations, user administration reviews, and planned upgrades. This can reduce uncertainty and help protect the original investment.

What is an access control solution?

It is a combination of technology, door hardware, software, policies, and support used to manage who can enter controlled areas and under what conditions.

What is the difference between access control products and access control solutions?

Products are the individual components, such as readers and controllers. A solution brings products together with design, installation, configuration, processes, integration, and ongoing support.

Close
Can electronic access control replace keys?

It can reduce reliance on conventional keys for controlled doors. The appropriate arrangement depends on door use, emergency requirements, resilience, and the building’s operating procedures.

What makes access control 'smart'?

The term often refers to connected capabilities such as mobile credentials, centralised or remote administration, automation, and integration. Available features depend on the platform and configuration.

How often is access control maintenance needed?

The frequency should reflect manufacturer guidance, system criticality, usage, environment, and contractual requirements. A planned maintenance schedule should be agreed for the specific system.
