Access Control Systems Perth
Rest-A-Sured Security designs, installs and maintains access control systems in Perth metro and regional Western Australia.
Access Control Solutions For Perth And WA
Rest-A-Sured Security designs, installs and maintains access control systems in Perth metro and regional Western Australia. Whether you need a single-door keycard access system for a Wangara warehouse or a multi-site access control system for a strata complex in the western suburbs, our access control services are built around your property, not sold off a shelf. As a WA-owned access control company based in Wangara, operating since 1998 and holding security licence 09458, we handle every access control installation from the first site visit to handover.
An access control system Perth businesses can rely on does more than lock a door. It gives you a complete record of who came and went, when, and where, and it lets you change access rights in minutes instead of rekeying locks. For property managers, facility owners and business operators who need to know exactly who has access to their site, that visibility is the difference between reacting to an incident and preventing one.
This page covers what our access control installation Perth service includes, how the process works from first enquiry to handover, who it suits, and why property owners across WA have trusted Rest-A-Sured with their security for more than 28 years.
What Our Access Control Services Include
Every access control system Perth installation from Rest-A-Sured is scoped to your site, not sold as a one-size package. As access control installers working across Perth and regional WA, we also take on access control repairs and servicing on systems we did not install, including readers that have stopped reading, failed door controllers and locks that will not release. Depending on your property, our access control services can include:
Keycard & Keypad Entry
Keycard, swipe card and keypad (PIN) access for single or multiple entry points, sometimes called keycard access.
Mobile & Biometric Access
Mobile-access credentials so staff or residents can unlock doors from a smartphone, plus biometric options where required.
Integration & Reporting
Integration with your existing CCTV installation and intercom systems, plus detailed access logs for audit and compliance.
Because our access control installation Perth teams also handle CCTV, alarms and intercom systems, everything can be tied into one system and one point of contact, rather than several vendors that do not talk to each other. That single point of contact also means one call covers access control services, alarm monitoring and maintenance, so nothing falls through the cracks between providers.
We install and support the main access control platforms used across Western Australia, including Inception and Integriti by Inner Range, Paxton, Tecom and Rosslare.
Business & Commercial Access Control in Perth
Most of the access control we install goes into working businesses: offices, warehouses, workshops, medical suites, childcare and multi-tenanted buildings. The problem a commercial access control system solves is rarely break-ins. It is that keys get copied, staff leave without handing them back, contractors need access on a Tuesday but not a Sunday, and nobody can say afterwards who opened what.
Removing a person, not a lock
On a keyed site, one lost key can mean rekeying a whole building. On a business access control system you deactivate one credential in a few seconds and everything else keeps working. For sites with high turnover or a rotating contractor base, that difference is the entire business case.
Access that follows your roster
Permissions can be set by door, by person and by time, so cleaners reach the areas they clean and not the server room, contractors get a window rather than a key, and after-hours entry is either allowed or it is not. Where a site runs shifts, the system follows the shift pattern rather than being propped open.
A record you can actually use
Every badge, fob or PIN entry is logged with a time against it. That matters for incident investigation, for insurance and for compliance obligations where you have to demonstrate who had access to a restricted area. Tied to CCTV, each of those events has vision attached to it as well.
Multi-site and multi-tenanted buildings
Where a business runs several premises, or a building owner is managing separate tenancies off one entry, the sites can be built to one standard and administered together rather than as separate systems with separate spreadsheets.

Who Our Access Control Services Suit
Strata & Body Corporate
Shared building entries, car parks and common areas that need a clear audit trail for owners and committees. See our strata security systems for how this integrates with CCTV and ANPR.
Commercial & Industrial Sites
Offices, warehouses and industrial premises across Perth that need to control staff and contractor access without handing out physical keys. Our commercial security systems build on the same access control platform.
Residential Complexes
Multi-unit residential developments where individual keycard or mobile access replaces shared physical keys and rekeying costs when tenants change. There is more on designing access control for high density living.
Regional & Rural WA Properties
Our regional installations team extends access control system Perth capability out to rural and regional Western Australia, where many competitors will not travel. If your site sits outside the metro area, that is a normal part of our service area, not an exception we have to work around.
Swipe Cards, Key Fobs, PINs and Mobile Access
The credential is the part everyone actually touches, and it is usually where a system is chosen well or badly. Most sites end up running more than one type.
Swipe card and keycard access
A swipe card access control system in Perth is still the default for offices and multi-tenanted buildings, because cards are cheap to issue, easy to cancel and simple for staff to understand. Cards can carry photo ID, which doubles them as a visible pass on sites where that matters. A swipe card system suits anywhere with a reception, a staff roster and regular turnover.
Key fobs
A key fob access control setup does the same job in a more durable form. Fobs live on a keyring, survive being dropped on a workshop floor, and are the usual choice for strata, apartment lobbies, gyms and industrial sites where a card in a wallet is impractical.
PIN and keypad entry
Keypads need no credential to be issued at all, which makes them useful for low-traffic doors, storerooms and gates, or as a second factor alongside a card on a higher-security door. Codes should be issued per person rather than shared, otherwise the audit trail tells you nothing.
Mobile credentials
Phone-based access removes the issuing step entirely: a new starter is granted access before they arrive and a departing one is removed the same afternoon, with no card to chase. It suits businesses with distributed teams or high turnover, and it is usually the cheapest credential to administer over time.
Biometrics
Fingerprint and facial readers are for the doors where you need certainty that the credential and the person are the same, such as cash handling areas, pharmacies, plant rooms and secure stores. They are worth specifying selectively rather than across a whole site.
Restricted key systems
Not every door justifies electronic access. A restricted keying system in Perth gives you patented keys that cannot be cut at a hardware store and are issued against a register, which is often the right answer for a handful of back-of-house doors sitting behind an electronic front entry.
We install and support the main platforms used across Western Australia, including Inception and Integriti by Inner Range, Paxton, Tecom and Rosslare. The full range is on our security brands page.
Cloud Access Control vs On-Premise
Access control is either administered from software on site, or from a cloud platform you reach through a browser. If you are still weighing it up, this is how an access control system actually works end to end. Both are legitimate and the right answer depends on how the site is run, not on which is newer.
Cloud access control suits businesses that do not have someone on site to run the system: permissions are changed from anywhere, a door can be unlocked remotely for a delivery or a contractor, multiple premises sit in one place, and updates and backups are handled for you. The trade-off is an ongoing subscription and a dependence on the site's internet connection, though readers and doors continue to work to their last known permissions if the link drops.
On-premise access control keeps everything on hardware in your comms room. There is no subscription and no reliance on an external service, which some sites prefer for policy reasons or because they have IT staff already. The trade-off is that upgrades, backups and remote access are your responsibility.
Cloud access control in Perth has become the default for smaller multi-site businesses, while larger single sites with their own IT often stay on-premise. We will quote whichever fits, and we will say plainly which one we think suits your site.

Choosing an Access Control Company in Perth
Rest-A-Sured Security has installed, upgraded and maintained security systems, including access control, for more than 28 years. We are WA owned and operated, and our alarm systems are affiliated with the largest independently owned grade-1 monitoring station in Western Australia, operating 24/7.
That matters for access control because your access system rarely exists on its own. It usually needs to work with an alarm panel, a CCTV system or 24/7 security monitoring. Because we install and maintain all of these across Perth and regional WA, your access control system is set up to work with the rest of your security, not around it.
It is also why property owners choose Rest-A-Sured for access control across Perth and regional WA, not just the CBD.
If you are comparing access control companies in Perth, the things worth asking about are who actually does the install, whether they can service and repair the system afterwards, and whether they can tie it back to your alarm and CCTV. We are a security licence holder (09458) doing our own installs, our own access control repairs and our own maintenance, for business access control and commercial access control sites alike.

Access Control FAQs
What types of access control systems do you offer?
We provide keypad entry, swipe card, biometric and mobile-access systems, depending on the level of control and monitoring required.
Can your systems integrate with existing CCTV or alarms?
Yes. Our access control solutions are designed to work seamlessly with your current security infrastructure, including CCTV and alarm systems.
Are your systems suitable for growing businesses?
Absolutely. We offer scalable access control systems that can expand with your team or facilities as they grow.
Do you offer system support and maintenance?
Yes, we provide ongoing maintenance, system upgrades and support for your access control system for optimal long-term performance.
Do you install access control systems outside the Perth metro area?
Yes. Alongside Perth metro, our regional installations service covers rural and regional Western Australia, where competitors often will not travel.
How is an access control system different from a traditional lock and key?
A traditional lock and key cannot tell you who used it or when, and a lost key means rekeying the whole property. An access control system lets you add, remove or restrict individual users instantly and keeps a log of every entry.
Can access control be added to an existing strata or commercial building?
Yes. Most existing buildings can be retrofitted with access control at common entries, car parks and shared facilities without a full rebuild of the entry system. We can also stage the rollout across a strata or commercial site so tenants are not without access at any point.
What happens if a keycard or fob is lost?
Because access control is managed digitally, a lost card or fob can simply be deactivated and a replacement issued, rather than rekeying the whole property as you would with a traditional lock and key.
How long has Rest-A-Sured been installing security systems in WA?
Rest-A-Sured Security was founded in 1998, giving us more than 28 years installing, upgrading and maintaining security systems across Perth and WA. We are WA owned and operated.
How much does an access control system cost in Perth?
The cost comes down to the number of doors, the credential type and whether the system runs in the cloud or on-premise. A single door with a keypad or card reader sits at the low end. A multi-door site integrated with CCTV and alarms, or several premises run together, costs more. Cloud systems carry an ongoing subscription and on-premise systems don't. We quote in writing after a site assessment, covering hardware, installation and any integration, so you know the full access control installation cost before any work starts.
Do you install access control for homes?
Yes. At home, PIN entry, fobs and mobile access can replace or sit alongside standard keys at doors and gates. Access can be added or cancelled without rekeying, which suits households where cleaners, tradespeople or family members come and go. See our home security systems page for how access control fits with cameras, intercoms and alarms, or our strata security systems page for apartment and townhouse complexes.
Can access control run lifts, car park gates and boom gates?
Yes. In strata and multi-tenanted buildings, the same access control platform typically extends to lobby doors, lift access, car park gates and common facilities, so one card, fob or mobile credential covers the whole building. Lift access can limit residents or tenants to their own floors, and boom gates can be paired with ANPR so approved vehicles enter without a pass.
