Access Control:

Q: How can I control access to certain areas in my operation?

A: by mechanical access (key control) or by Electronic Access Control.

Q: What options do you have for remotely managed electronic Access Control?

A: We offer a secure, cloud based Electronic Access solution, that allows LP managers to easily grant, change, or deny access to any door in your system, including our patented option for your safe’s doors.

Q1: How can I use Amphion’s Access Control system to only provide access to highly sensitive areas for specific employees, and only during certain times of the day?

A1: With Amphion’s Access Control system, you can restrict employee access to only those days and times they are supposed to be on-location, and you can prevent access to areas outside of their job responsibilities.

Q2: Is it possible to use Amphion’s Access Control system to assist in an investigation to determine which employees were present at a particular date and time?

A2: Amphion’s Access Control systems can track every individual moving in and out of your business. If an investigation is underway, you can review a log of who was onsite when the activity in question occurred. Our Access Control system also helps track attendance and punctuality, whether an employee is wearing a mask, or if their body temperature is above a defined threshold, providing a healthy ROI.

Q3: With high turnover in my business, how difficult is it to terminate access for employees who leave the company?

A3: Amphion’s Access Control systems mitigate potential damage from terminated or disgruntled employees. Once personnel issues are identified, employee access can easily be immediately revoked to protect property and maintain employee safety.  Alerts can be set to notify you of their attempted access immediately.  We can also integrate with other systems, such as you CCTV systems.

Q: What is mechanical access control and how can it help me?

A: Mechanical access control is a managed lock and key system.  Amphion manages the keys and locks, and even keeps track of change history, the lock’s individual bitting codes and more.  Many businesses avoid re-keying due to the cost and trouble.  With Amphion’s mechanical access control systems, we design the system around your needs.  The system allows for immediate re-keying without a Locksmith, at a fraction of the cost.  Most systems have a ROI of less than a year.

Amphion Integrated Solutions (AIS):

Q1: I understand many of the benefits of using a single source for my physical security needs, but can you provide an example of a unique benefit that may be less obvious?

A1: There are many unique benefits to implementing an AIS initiative. For example, by installing CCTV systems and access control systems through one source that can integrate the two systems effectively, the CCTV system can record at a higher IPS rate (images-per-second) whenever a particular area, such as a retailer’s cash office, is entered. This saves the DVR’s hard drive space during the periods when no one is inside the designated area of observation.

Q2: By implementing an AIS integrated initiative, what types of reporting would I have access to?

A2: Through AIS reporting, you can answer critical and challenging questions such as:

  • What is my worst location for false alarms?
  • What location is being burglarized the most?
  • When are my locations really opening and closing?

In short, you can finally gain visibility into any issues that may have been suspicious, but previously were hard to pinpoint. This kind of visibility will drastically enhance your asset protection program by enabling you to dynamically attack shrink.

Amphion’s Locks & Safes

 Q1: How do I prevent unauthorized copies of my keys from being used in my business?

A1: Amphion is a National Authorized dealer of key systems that utilize a patented keying system that limits the ability to make unauthorized copies.

Q2: How can selecting the right lock and key hardware save my company money?

A2: Amphion’s re-keyable lock solution keeps pace with turnover or the loss / theft of your keys. Re-keyable locks reduce expenses by preventing the need for locksmiths and extensive hardware every time an issue arises.

Q3: What is mechanical access control and how can it help me?

A3: Mechanical access control is a managed lock and key system.  Amphion manages the keys and locks, and even keeps track of change history, the lock’s individual bitting codes and more.  Many businesses avoid re-keying due to the cost and trouble.  With Amphion’s mechanical access control systems, we design the system around your needs.  The system allows for immediate re-keying without a Locksmith, at a fraction of the cost.  Most systems have a ROI of less than a year.

Q4: How does Amphion’s smart safe differ from a traditional safe?

A4: Amphion’s Smart safes do more than just protect cash. They have completely reinvented cash management protocols for businesses. Before smart safes, it was typical for cash to be counted anywhere between 3 to 5 times before it made its way to the bank. With smart safes, users simply insert cash and the safe does the rest. It validates to ensure the cash is not counterfeit, it records the cash, then securely stores the cash. And because smart safes are connected via the web, they provide managers and business owners with the ability to monitor cash deposit events. They track and store real-time data and provide the business with immediate cash deposits to the bank before the cash even leaves the store.

Q5: Safety is a value at my company. How can Amphion smart safes keep my cash and employees safe?

A5: Smart safes not only streamline cash management procedures and processes, but they also create a safer environment for storing money. The safety improvement is derived from the smart safe’s ability to store cash into cassettes within the safe once the money is validated. No longer do cash-handling employees have free access to large stacks of cash.
