If you have other security infrastructure, and want to interface with a Keri Access Control System, there is a good chance that an interface exists, or is being planned for the near future. Keri is constantly working with many technology partners in the security industry. Currently, there are integrations planned or in place for: Time and Attendance, Visitor Management, Video Management\/Integration, Wireless Lock products, Pedestrian Turnstiles and high-end Facility Intercom.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>Protect Yourself, Your Employees, Tenants or Assets<\/strong><\/em>\r\nInstalling a Keri Access Control System shows a commitment to security that can often earn discounts on insurance and can forestall lawsuits from unscrupulous associates, who could claim a lack of concern for personal security.
