In LENSEC’s Step Into Security webinar, we take a look at integrations for physical security with a special focus on access control. In Part One, we focus on concepts and components.
Recently, access control has made big strides in technology incorporating biometrics, integrating with other security products, and moving to a digital deployment among other things. We'll provide an overview for end-users and security personnel.
LENSEC physical security expert Keith Harris will be presenting this topic. Keith is a veteran expert with extensive knowledge of security equipment. Keith has experience working with educators, law enforcement and others developing security solutions to meet their needs.
Please register for the upcoming webinar. Share this info with your colleagues and invite them to join us.
WEBINAR AGENDA:
• Access Control Deployment
• Building & Fire Codes

Part One: Concepts & Components
Questions & Answers
Poll Question #1
What is the primary concern when regulating access control?
1. Integrating many different building systems
2. Carefully reading the specifications
3. Life safety
4. Knowing who has jurisdiction for code enforcement
Poll Question #2
To which side of the door are Fail Safe & Fail Secure relevant?
1. The entry side of the door
2. The exit side of the door
3. Both sides of the door
4. Neither side of the door
Which version of the building and fire codes should I follow?
That is not always an easy answer. The right thing to do is follow the version of the code that the AHJ
follows. This could vary among entities. The most recent version of the NFPA 101 Life Safety Code is
2015, though many jurisdictions are still working off of 2012 rules or earlier. The AHJ has the authority
to adopt the code. So, when in doubt, check with the AHJ for clarification.
When using a Fail Safe lock, the door becomes unlocked when there is a power failure. How does
the owner prevent a security risk?
I’ve seen that as a concern before. You can’t auto lock the doors in those situations because that defeats
the purpose of life safety. You can provide a mechanical lock and have security or a designated person
go and manually lock the doors after an inspection of the building. However, the mechanical lock should
be used on a regular basis since free egress should be maintained. Fail Secure hardware locations might
require a Mechanical Override Key to manually lock doors for building security when the power is
down.
Proper use dictates that these keys are only used on an emergency basis and held by a limited number
of key holders.
43. How does access control work with building systems like the fire alarm?
A fire alarm pull is not an exit device, but it works like one – sort of. The fire alarm is configured to drop
lock power when the fire pull is activated. Maglocks and access control systems have contacts to tie into
the fire alarm. AHJs may require proof of successful access control override by the fire pulls.
When you’re choosing a wireless or WiFi lockset, do each have to be within range of the access
point?
Range is a consideration. Each location should be tested to make sure it is in range of the network
access point. Some of these locks are designed with a MIMO style network for lock communications.
This would require a system hub to located within range of every lock. A single system hub might
manage 12 or more doors within its range.
Are there other types of Request To Exit devices for uncommon installation circumstances?
A less common device is an RTE Pressure Pad placed in front of a door to break power when a person
stand on it. These work best when installed under carpets or flooring, though this might complicate
maintenance. Pressure Pads might be used in areas where hand contact with the door or PIRs are not
permitted, such as a clean room or explosive areas.
