Doors & entry points
Plan which doors, gates, and controlled areas belong in the system and how each should behave during normal operations.
Building Technology · Access Control
Make every controlled door part of a manageable system.
Dunlap plans, deploys, and supports commercial access control around the way people enter, change roles, move between spaces, and leave the organization.

Credentials
Issue and manage supported credential types based on the selected platform, the user’s role, and the way people move through the property.
Groups & permissions
Translate teams, roles, locations, and responsibilities into access that is easier to understand and maintain.
Schedules
Define business hours, door schedules, temporary access windows, and exceptions around the real operating calendar.
Entry activity
Keep access events available to authorized people who need to review what happened at a door or controlled area.
Ongoing changes
Add and remove people, adjust permissions, respond to lost credentials, and update the system as the organization changes.

The access lifecycle
The system must stay accurate as people and responsibilities change.
The installation is only the beginning. Clear operating responsibility keeps access aligned with the organization over time.
01
Multi-tenant installs
Tenant groups receive access only to the entry points and secure areas assigned to them. Separate permissions keep one tenant from gaining access to another tenant’s office or controlled space.
02
Role or location change
Update access as responsibilities, schedules, sites, or controlled areas change.
03
Temporary access
Provide time-bound permissions for vendors, contractors, visitors, or another approved short-term need.
04
Departure or lost credential
Remove or replace access promptly without changing physical keys across the property.
Common questions
Start with the doors, people, and process you have.
Can Dunlap work with an existing access-control system?
Yes. We can assess the current platform, controllers, readers, credentials, permissions, schedules, network environment, and management process before recommending what should remain, change, or expand.
Can different people have different access?
Yes. Access systems are commonly organized around roles, groups, locations, doors, and schedules. The permission structure should remain understandable enough that authorized administrators can maintain it as people and responsibilities change.
Can access control connect with surveillance?
Potentially. Coordinating door events with nearby camera coverage can make both systems more useful. The available integration depends on the selected access and surveillance platforms.
Who manages employee and credential changes?
That responsibility can remain with an authorized person inside your organization, be supported by Dunlap, or use a defined shared process. We establish the operating workflow during deployment or takeover.
Show us the property, the controlled doors, and how access changes today.
We will help define a system and operating process that remain understandable after installation.
