Biometric Access Control will make access into your building a breeze, but only for authorized personnel. Instead of handing out costly keycards or fobs to the parents, biometric access control allows to authenticate parents based on their finger print or iris signature. With biometric access control your premises will be more secure, as there are no lost cards that may allow for access into the building. Authentication of parents will also be much easier, as the fingerprints or iris signatures cannot be traded between partners, ensuring the identity of the authenticated person. With biometrics, attendance tracking will become extremely easy and even more reliable.

Daycare and Preschool Centers usually need to fulfill a set of accessibility requirements. With our access control solutions, automatic door operators and accessibility buttons can be integrated right into the system allowing for the tracking of every time the button was pressed to automatically open a door. The access control can also be integrated right into the automatic door operator to allow the door to be automatically opened every time an authorized person swipes their card or authenticates their fingerprint/iris.

Arguably one of the most important aspects of operations at a daycare or preschool is the attendance tracking of each and every child. Biometric authentication solutions can fully automate the attendance tracking of each and every child on premises. The software will collect every event and will provide all necessary information to provide drop-off and pick-up times, as well as which parents dropped the child off. Attendance tracking made easy through easy to use access control solutions.

Every door is different and will require a certain type of security device to ensure no unauthorized personnel can breach the door. We offer a wide range of door strikes, door operators and magnet locks to ensure the right fit for the door. Our access control solutions can also be integrated to work with the alarm and video surveillance solutions on site to allow for an even more detailed overview and  immediate alerts to connected devices in case of an emergency or intrusion.

We can take over existing accounts or install a brand new burglary alarm system solution.

Protecting your daycare or preschool center has never been more affordable or easier. From site survey through to the installation and finally the monitoring, we are your go to partner and will always be at your side should you require any assistance.

Most standalone buildings will require fire panels and sprinklers for the detection and prevention of fire. These panels do not provide monitoring to a central station, which is where we come in. Our fire monitoring solutions are designed to integrate into any fire panel and will reliably provide alerts about fires, troubles and other issues with the fire system. In a standalone building, we can provide both fire and burglarly monitoring, which minimizes the monthly bill you are paying and Authorized Security will be your sole point of contact for both solutions, minimizing administration effort.

In case of medical alerts or intrusions, personal panic or alert devices can immediately dispatch the required authorities. These devices are designed to be panic buttons on desks or integrated into necklaces, bracelets and more. Upon the press of a button the authorities are dispatched, without alerting a potential intruder. These solutions maximize security of the staff and children at the daycare, while also providing peace of mind that someone is watching in case of a medical emergency.

Our alarm system products can integrate into the access control and video surveillance products on site, giving you a single interface of all of the above. Not only will control over these devices be easier with one central interface, but your security will be much more effective with the integrated solutions. Allowing for the capture of a snapshot of every person entering that can be pulled up via the access control logs, as well as snapshots of the person that disarmed the alarm system in the morning. These integrations can be extremely powerful and best of all, easy to use.

For digital signage solutions, we have the right software and products to build single displays, up to entire video walls, allowing you to bring your message across in an impressive format.

Single room audio, or distributed audio across all rooms, we can help. Audio solutions are oftentimes a requirement for daycare and preschool centers. Our distributed audio solutions allow for each room to be controlled independently, while each room can have a different input device, such as a networked media player or a personal device located in the room. This allows for teachers and staff to play music from their personal devices, stream it from internet radio sources or select from any pre-loaded music, right from an app or a touchscreen. Entertaining children with music has never been easier.

Is your staff wheeling a T.V. on a stand with a DVD player into the room, attempting to find a receptacle and then struggling to control it? Integrated A.V. solutions come to the rescue with easy to use interfaces and selection of sources. At the touch of a button, a projector can be turned on, a screen can be extended from the ceiling and the correct source (movie, television, etc.) starts playing. Minimizing the need for wheeling around T.V.’s will allow the staff to watch the children and will take the frustration of using the T.V. off their shoulders. Our integrated A.V. solutions are extremely scalable allowing for single zone solutions up to 256 different rooms and sources.

Power is one of the least thought of requirements for devices, until it goes out. Regular power coming from your receptacles can be very “dirty”. Dirty power can cut your device life much shorter, than originally intended. We recommend power conditioning equipment for each and every device that will be plugged into a wall outlet. Whether it may be a T.V. or a computer. For data sensitive devices we take it a step further and recommend power backup solutions that will continue running, even if power fails at the location. All power backed up devices should also be backed up by a separate backup service to ensure the data integrity in case of a power failure or worse, a hardware crash.

Regular maintenance is an utter requirement of the longevity and reliability of any I.T. environment. Whether there are outstanding issues that need to be resolved, or the devices themselves need to be cleaned regularly, we recommend a regular visit every 3 to 6 months, depending on the environment and size of the installation. Regular cleaning, updating, auditing and logging of all device activity is important for any I.T. environment. We will come by to ensure your environment is functioning as it should, at all times.

Audio and Video signals need the right wire to properly transport the signal across your building. HDMI wires need to be rated to be run in-wall, in order to protect the signal that the wire is transporting. There are varying standards for HDMI cables as well that are used for different applications. The standard needs to be matched to the application. For audio wiring, the correct gauge of wiring needs to be used for the type of speaker and type of system that will be installed. We use Honeywell’s Genesis Cable which is one of the highest grade cables available. Honeywell offers a wide range of cables for almost every application.

We can make sure to meet all your termination requirements, and will keep wiring standards across the entire location to minimize interference, maximize performance and provide an all around reliable solution.

Great video starts with a great camera. For daycare and preschool centers, the video quality matters most. Whether it is used for the identification of intruders, or to hold a staff member accountable for an action, clear video allows for all of it. We use high definition video surveillance cameras that allow for the identification of faces and offer night vision. We go the extra mile and will ensure that your network is able to support all the cameras and recording, while also allowing for other traffic on the network. Proper network design is an important factor for video surveillance, and is unfortunately all too often overlooked. Our network engineers will ensure your network is able to handle all the traffic we can throw at it.

The video surveillance software is the controlling part of any video surveillance application. It allows for the recording of video, the viewing of live and playback views as well as certain analytics. We offer both embedded servers with the software pre-installed, or standalone servers that can support software solutions like the ones offered by Milestone Systems. Both solutions can be built to be very reliable and cost effective. Most of our video surveillance solutions are scalable to allow for the addition of cameras or storage later on.

Daycare and Preschool centers need reliable video surveillance at all times. The server is the backbone of the entire operation and should be a reliable piece of hardware that not only offers redundancy, but also the highest up-time of any server in the industry. Our embedded solutions are extremely reliable and our standalone servers offer the highest up-time in the I.T. industry. Paired with regular maintenance there will be nothing that stands in the way of a clear video image at any time.

If you are the owner of an existing daycare or preschool center, you may already have cameras installed. As with most technologies, cameras have come a far way from the analog ages.
