An access control security officer is one of the most important systems in keeping your office place or your community safe. We at Inter State Security take this responsibility very seriously and understand that controlling the access people have to restricted areas should not be taken lightly. As technology evolves, smart security systems allow us to extend our reach, however, we believe in the human factor of access control too.

An access control security officer is responsible for controlling access and egress (exiting) of authorized people and vehicles. Simply put, they control the amount of access certain entities have to a specific area, such as a gated community or office block. Naturally, this involves seemingly mundane tasks such as tagging card-readers, unlocking turnstiles, and verifying identities with a visitor but as criminals become more sophisticated in their approach, access control becomes increasingly important.

Security officers that control access are the first point of contact for potential danger. Our security officers are trained in assessing a situation from a distance and being able to take the necessary steps to protect the needs of our clients. In gated security where the services of an access control security officer are enlisted, they will take care of:

visitors moving in and out of the area
service people entering the area and verifying their identity and permissions to enter
monitoring happenings within the area
alerting residents of any potential dangers
assisting residents in need
