Up until now, if you were looking for a locking system to provide security for your facility you had two choices:
Traditional, mechanical Masterkey systems OR Wired access control systems.
However, both these systems are limited.

With traditional, mechanical Masterkey systems you have no way of knowingwho has entered your building. Further, if you lose a key you have toeither re-key your system (expensive and time consuming) or allow yoursecurity to be compromised.

Wired access control systems are extremely expensive and they can'tincorporate every access point. Most outside gates, cabinets, drawers,padlocks and safes are excluded from the system.

That was the past. Introducing the EKA System...

The EKA System is an Electronic Masterkey System that eliminates all theproblems of both mechanical and fully wired systems. It is a system ofelectronic cylinders that replace mechanical locks or lock cylinders inexisting doors, cabinets, drawers, padlocks, safes and more. The EKASystem controls everything. If you lose a key, you simply block it. Thesystem has no wires and can control access to every entry point. Thekeys are programmed with access assignments and schedules, which alsoallows the administrator to view audit reports and custom reports. It is easily installed with minimal ongoing maintenance required.

The EKA System is a revolution in Masterkey systems. It has already beeninstalled into some of Australia's most esteemed and recognisedfacilities including the Sydney Opera House. These organisations needed a cost-effective, highly secure and flexible Masterkey system and EKA was the answer.

 
 
 
HOW IT WORKS

The EKA System is simple. The following steps will take you through the process.


Simply replace cylinders
Simply replace your existing mechanical cylinders with EKA cylinders. EKAcylinders are the exact dimensions of the cylinders they are replacing.There is no wiring or power required at the door.

Keys are assigned
EKA keys are assigned. The keys are programmed to give that individual hisor her personal access privileges. For instance the key can beprogrammed to allow access from 8am to 6pm on weekdays and 10am to 4pmSundays. It can also be
programmed to expire on a specific date at a specific time.

Keys meet locks
When an EKA key meets an EKA lock, an information exchange occurs todetermine whether the key has access to that specific lock cylinder. The event and time is stored in both the lock and the key. Attempted access is also stored in the lock and key.

Authoriser Keyport
By giving the EKA keys expiry times you ensure users regularly updatetheir keys. Keys are updated at an easily accessible authoriser keyportwhich is linked to your stand-alone computer or network. When validating keys, the system downloads the
key's audit data and uploads new access privileges to the key.

Software
The system is controlled centrally through proprietary stand alone orweb-based software. Customised audit reports and automatic notifications on suspicious activities can be automatically generated via email.
