Real-Time Control for Access Control Operations

Running access control & intercoms means handling site surveys, door hardware checks (locks, strikes, maglocks), reader/panel installs, controller wiring, credential provisioning (cards, fobs, mobile), door tasks, intercom stations (audio/SIP/video), networking (PoE, VLANs), commissioning, handover, and service calls — often across multiple facilities with strict access windows. Teams need live visibility of who’s on-site, which openings/zones are in scope, what parts are issued, and where work is slipping. That’s why Shifton delivers a field service platform built for Access Control & Intercoms — clear statuses, precise assignments, and clean handoffs between sales, dispatch, field techs, IT/facilities, and clients/GCs.

  • Multi-site coordination: Plan access windows, security escorts, and high-security areas without endless calls.

  • Door-level traceability: Track each opening (door ID, hardware set, panel/loop, zone) through survey → install → test → sign-off.

  • Parts control: Reserve readers, strikes, maglocks, panels, PoE injectors, cabling; auto-log serials and RMAs.

  • Proof-of-work: Time stamps, photos, test results, signatures, GPS, and audit history per door and device.

  • Compliance & change control: Capture approvals for scope changes, firmware updates, credential rules, and network impacts.
