Fitting a card reader to an existing door is often possible, but needs careful thought. If you are responsible for a building, or an area within a building, and you wish to introduce a secure area by having an access control door installed, you should contact your Estates and Buildings Premises Manager in the first instance to discuss your requirement. The E&B Premises Manager will contact Information Services to discuss the feasibility of installing a card reader. Cost will be a key factor. There will be an initial installation cost, which could be several thousand pounds. For new internal access control doors or turnstiles, there is a monthly fee which covers the ongoing maintenance of the system. Further information about charges is available in the section on Policy and Strategy. Related Links Access Control Door Policy and Strategy This article was published on 2024-10-08
