Commercial Access Control Systems in Dallas–Fort Worth & Houston

Stop Relying on Keys. Start Controlling Your Facility.

Mechanical locks and physical keys are no longer enough to protect modern businesses. Keys get copied, lost, and never returned. You’re left guessing who has access— and when.

Commercial access control systems replace uncertainty with control. Instead of keys, your doors are secured using programmable credentials that let you decide who can enter, where they can go, and when access is allowed. Every entry is logged. Every permission is intentional.

Platinum Technologies designs and installs professional access control systems for businesses across Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston, helping organizations secure their facilities, streamline operations, and scale with confidence.

What Are Commercial Access Control Systems?

Commercial access control systems are electronic security platforms that regulate entry to buildings, rooms, and restricted areas. Businesses can secure doors using credential readers connected to a centralized system, instead of traditional locks and keys.

Common credentials include:

  • Key cards or fobs

  • Mobile phone credentials

  • PIN codes

  • Biometric authentication

Every access attempt is recorded, creating a detailed audit trail that shows who accessed a door, when they entered, and which areas were accessed. For Texas businesses, modern access control systems often integrate with video surveillance, intrusion alarms, and visitor management systems to create a complete security ecosystem.

Types of Commercial Access Control Systems

Most businesses use one or a combination of the following:

Key Card Access Control

Employees use proximity cards or fobs to unlock doors. Businesses can activate, deactivate, or restrict cards instantly; no need for re-keying!

Mobile Access Control

Smartphones act as credentials using secure Bluetooth or NFC technology. Issue or revoke credentials quickly and remotely.

Biometric Access Control

Fingerprint or facial recognition readers verify identity using unique biological markers. Commonly used for high-security areas.

Cloud-Based Access Control

Manage access permissions through secure web or mobile dashboards, allowing remote administration and multi-location control.

Platinum Technologies helps businesses select the right technology based on security needs, budget, and future growth.
