Access Control Systems

Business entry solutions

Access Control is the first line of defence against unauthorised entry to your buildings and facilities. If you want to keep intruders out while still ensuring that your staff and guests can enter quickly and easily, then you need access control systems installed. We offer a wide range of solutions for our clients, from one door to hundreds of doors across multiple sites. No matter what kind of system you need, we can help.

Manage people intelligently

Access control protects your organisation and its people. Our solutions enable you to safely manage the flow of people throughout your premises, protect vital assets and improve the speed of entry while reducing costs. Limit and personalise access to restricted areas to specific people and grant temporary access to visitors.

Cloud solutions can make it even easier with remote management. This can help improve security while improving efficiency at the same time. Save time and avoid stress by securing your building with a keyless entry system. Whether you need to restrict access for employees, guests, or tenants, there are several solutions that can be controlled in the cloud to save you time and minimise lock management. Rely on a fob-based solution, a card reader synced to your smartphone or a biometric scanner with an integrated camera.

Smartphone integration

A single, unified cloud solution makes remote management of physical access to multiple facilities and offices as seamless as possible. It provides a simple, efficient way to manage the networked access devices and secured areas in your facilities. With easy integration to the tools you already use, we make it easy to keep your directory synced with your team so you can focus on what matters most: adding value to your company. Just add a few users to your preferred directory service and have them automatically appear in the app!

No more tokens or keys. Empower your employees with a modern, mobile-first user experience.

It’s safe to say you are in great hands utilising our product portfolio combined with Rydal Security Award-Winning Customer Service. Together with our partners, we provide the most innovative and reliable systems within security technology.

One card, multiple uses

Key cards provide the least expensive form of door access. Each card contains a unique code programmed into it, and that code is configured to work with a specific door using the access control software. Access can be configured for various doors using the same card number — e.g., a visitor’s card can be programmed to access only one door for one day, whereas an employee’s card may be programmed to access all or specific internal doors permanently. In order for key cards to function as multi-door credentials, the access control software must be able to support multiple access levels

She upgraded our office phones and mobile plans, clearly explained everything and  saved us money in the process. The engineer handled the installation quickly and without any problems. Would definitely recommend Samantha and the team.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A corporate decision saw us move our broadband and telephone system to a new provider who offered a  more favourable package both financially and in terms of the services offered and they commissioned Rydal, who would be responsible for the planning, the supply of all equipment, installation and every part of the operational requirements, both during installation and moving forward. Within our company I have the responsibility for the entire system in relation to requirements and operational needs and therefore my interaction with Rydal was immense. Our order consisted of 75 fixed desk handsets and 11 walkabout telephones over 20 different sites in addition to the broadband installs, new fibre cabling involving (sadly) Openreach, who performance and organisation was abysmal. From the start Rydal sought to introduce any relevant personnel and explain the part they would play.  It was also an opportunity to ensure clear lines of communication were established and our expectations could be clearly defined. Our key individual was our Project Co-ordinator, Angela Melvin and I can say with all sincerity that I don’t know what we would have done without her, she was an absolute star and poor Angela had to pick up all the shortfalls of Openreach, which she did admirably.   This was quite a sizeable project with many complexities and restrictions owing to the nature of our business where a service had to remain 24/7 and be worked around staff shift patterns etc so hurdles were going to appear from time to time, but each time they were presented she would overcome and resolved in a calm and civilised fashion.    Angela was never once phased; she would use such a fantastic phrase when I called her with an issue it was ‘leave it with me’ and you could be confident that it would be dealt with and outcomes fed back. Her tenacity and commitment to task was nothing short of commendable. If anyone heard me speaking with her you would think I was talking to a friend – our professional relationship went from strength to strength. If anything arose that she was unsure of, she was not too proud, given her knowledge and experience, she would refer and discuss with colleagues ensuring at all times that the correct information was relayed back. She was so instrumental to ensure that the installation was planned with absolute precision, and the installers were 1st Class (Simon and Will) who made every effort ensure client satisfaction and their necessary interaction with our IT engineers was superb as was Angela’s.  Our ‘Down Time’ on switchover day was absolutely minimal and scheduled accordingly owing to company needs. Personally I cannot thank her enough for her support and assistance. Dion O’Byrne (Chanel Growth & Strategy) was another individual who played a key part from the offset and was always there to ensure customer satisfaction and that all initially discussed requirements to be achieved were fully met upon completion and that we had an effective operating system and equipment.  There were No empty promises which can so often be the case when trying to clinch a deal. Training on the system was comprehensive and if in doubt there was always someone to bail you out and put you on the right track. Of course I was sceptical initially as I was happy with our old providers and the system we were using,  however now we are all fully equipped, and the system is complete I would recommend Rydal without a shadow of a doubt and I am so very pleased we moved over – the system is excellent, the portal is so user friendly and every single one of them at Rydal are at the end of a phone, more than happy to assist – If they say they will call you back, you can rest assured that they will. If you were in doubt as to whether to change suppliers  I would recommend ‘Move Providers’ as I am so sure you would not be disappointed. Val Alder Personal Assistant to the MD and Head of Co.
