Security specialist chooses Incedo Lite to control their business

Challenges

Plexus is a commercial electronic fire and security specialist serving customers in South Wales and around the UK. With extensive expertise in the security sector, they are aware of a growing need for connectivity and integration across building functions including access control.

Disappointed with an existing system, which was proving expensive to maintain, Plexus managers sought a more flexible access control system for their own head office in Swansea.

 

Requirements

  • A modern ccess control system which is intuitive to operate
  • Easy hardware and software upgrade from an existing unsatisfactory system
  • A broad choice of door locking devices and readers for multiple types of opening solutions
  • A future-proofed platform offering the option to scale up with ease

 

Solution

ASSA ABLOY’s Incedo Lite system is now running at the Plexus head office in Swansea. Installing hardware devices from the wide ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions range was fast and simple, making the switch to Incedo straightforward.

With keyless locking and Incedo Lite management software, Plexus managers now control exactly who goes where around their offices. They can set times when defined user groups may open specific doors. It keeps staff moving and safe without the hassle of physical keys.

The “new software has been seamless, much simpler and [with a] common sense approach to structure,” says Operations Director, Marcus Elphick. Incedo Lite is intuitive to operate from any PC. 

The entire Incedo platform is fully flexible and modular, allowing Plexus to add more locks or change management software options whenever they need. They are already planning to extend control: remote sites, entrance gates and warehouse access control will all be covered, too. “We have been so pleased with the system and its capabilities,” adds Marcus Elphick.
