Is the Access Control Vestibule™ or mantrap cost effective?
The Access Control Vestibule™ allows an existing employee within the control and monitoring area to handle most issues. They can dispatch authorities to the premises if a situation requires it. Posting a guard at the entrance to a high security area may no longer be required. The cost of their salary, taxes, insurance and benefits can add up quickly to over $70K annually. An automatic entrance control system requires only occasional human intervention when there is an alarm or bypass condition. Significant insurance savings may also be available. A building with an automatic mantrap entrance control system will have lower premiums. The cost of the state of the art Access Control Vestibule™ can be recovered in less than one year based on savings in security labor costs alone.
