How to Ensure Your Buildings are COVID-Secure with Paxton Access Control

COVID-19 or Coronavirus has changed the landscape for businesses throughout the world.

One of the biggest challenges is to curb the spread of the virus and as such, many measures and regulations have been put in place.

Maintaining social distancing is one of the key recommendations and as more and more people return to work, business owners will need to ensure that their buildings are COVID-secure.

Luckily, technology can help.

Access control systems like Net2 from Paxton can help in a number of ways to make your business COVID-Secure and to help keep your staff and customers safe.

Here are some of the considerations listed from Paxton in their Guide to COVID-Secure buildings:

• Contactless entry & exit – hygienic access, touchless entry and exit points to stop the spread of germs
• Flexible access permissions – meet social distancing guidelines, limit access to high traffic areas and implement one-way routes of movement to prevent crossover and cross-contamination
• Occupancy management – know how many people are in your building and control people numbers to meet social distancing guidelines
• Thermal scanning – use cameras to support health and wellbeing in high-security areas and identify people that could be at risk, quickly. Identify and help any person presenting a high temperature
