A restricted key system offers top-of-the-line security and control for any business security system. In a restricted key system, keys can only be copied by an authorized person, and new keys must be cut by the master locksmith who originally produced it. Here are some of the benefits of this secure technology.

Secured System

Restricted key systems are unique in design and patent protected. This prohibits anyone from copying the keys. Keys are part of a security system, and access is given on a need-to-have basis. Employees may possess keys to the first floor, while other employees only have access to the second floor of a business. Management can acquire a master key allowing access to all areas of a building. By design, restricted key systems don’t allow accidental keys to be entered and are considered pick proof.

Access Control

Only the owner or manager of the keys can request duplicates, and it requires filling out forms authorizing the process. Every key is registered with the locksmith, and meticulous recordkeeping gives the owner or manager access to every key location, and any authorizations made acquiring new sets of keys. Each key has a unique issue and system number attached to it, providing a higher level of protection. These numbers are entered into a locksmith database and are not allowed to be reused or duplicated.
