Control Who Enters.
Know When They Did.

Layerix designs and installs enterprise access control systems — biometric readers, door interlocks, attendance management, and turnstiles — deployed entirely by our own certified in-house engineers.

Breach is enough to compromise a server room, laboratory, or sensitive data environment permanently.

“A locked door is not access control. Access control is knowing exactly who opened it, at what time, and whether they were authorised to be there. Layerix installs systems that give you that visibility — across every door, every floor, every shift.”

End‑to‑End Process

1

Site Security Assessment – We walk every entry point, assess risk levels per zone, and document the access control requirement before recommending any hardware.

2

Zone Classification & Design – We classify zones by security level — public, restricted, and high-security — and design an access policy for each.

3

Hardware Selection & BOQ – Right reader, right lock, right controller — specified for each door based on traffic volume, security requirement, and environmental conditions.

4

Civil & Electrical Coordination – Door frames, power outlets, conduit routes, and EM lock anchor points coordinated with your civil team before installation begins.

5

Installation & Wiring – 100% in-house team. Every reader, controller, lock, and sensor installed, wired, and labelled correctly.

6

Software Configuration – User enrolment, access policies, time zones, and reporting configured before handover.

7

Testing & Handover – Every door tested for grant, deny, forced entry alarm, and fire release. Full documentation and admin training at handover.

Why Layerix

🏗️

Design Before Install

Access zones, policies, and hardware are designed and agreed on paper before a single cable is pulled.

🚫

Zero Subcontracting

Every access control project is installed by our own engineers. No third party touches your security infrastructure.

🔌

Single-Scope Delivery

Cabling, controllers, readers, locks — all from one team. No coordination between separate contractors.

🔒

Fire Safety Integrated

Every door interlock and turnstile is configured for fire alarm release — safety never compromised for security.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between access control and a standard door lock?

A standard lock grants access to anyone with a key — and gives you no record of who entered or when. An electronic access control system grants access only to enrolled users, logs every entry and exit with a timestamp, triggers alerts on unauthorised attempts, and can be managed remotely without changing physical keys.

Q2: What types of credentials do your access control systems support?

Fingerprint biometrics, facial recognition, RFID smart cards, PIN codes, and combinations of these (multi-factor). We recommend the right credential type per zone — biometric for high-security areas, card for general access, PIN as a backup factor.

Q3: Can access control systems integrate with our CCTV surveillance?

Yes. Modern access control platforms support integration with CCTV systems — triggering a camera recording when an access event occurs, linking footage to a specific user and timestamp. Layerix installs both CCTV and access control, enabling unified integration from a single team.

Q4: What happens to access during a power failure?

Fail-safe locks (EM locks) release on power loss — defaulting to open for evacuation safety. Fail-secure locks (electric strikes) remain locked on power loss — for areas where security is the priority even during failure. We design fail-safe vs fail-secure per door based on your safety and security requirements, always with fire alarm release as an override.

Q5: What is anti-passback?

Anti-passback prevents a user from entering a second time without first exiting — stopping credential sharing where one card is passed back through a door to allow a second person to enter. We configure anti-passback on all deployments where tailgating prevention is a requirement.

Q6: Can the system manage visitors as well as staff?

Yes. Visitor management modules issue temporary credentials (printed passes or QR codes) with time-limited access to specific zones. Visitor entry and exit is logged alongside permanent staff. We configure visitor workflows as part of the access control deployment.

Q7: Do your access control systems comply with fire safety regulations?

Yes. Every door lock installation includes a fire alarm release interface — all locked doors open automatically on fire alarm activation. This is a mandatory requirement we enforce on every project, regardless of security classification.

Q8: Can the system be managed remotely?

Yes. Enterprise access control platforms support remote management — adding or revoking user credentials, viewing access logs, and receiving real-time alerts — from a web browser or mobile app. We configure remote access as standard on all deployments.

Q9: What is the difference between a biometric system and an RFID card system?

An RFID card can be lost, stolen, or shared — it authenticates a card, not a person. A biometric system authenticates the person directly through a physical characteristic that cannot be transferred. For high-security zones, biometric is the correct choice. For general office access, RFID provides adequate control at lower cost. We often deploy both — RFID for standard areas, biometric for sensitive zones.

Q10: How long does an access control installation take?

A small office installation (5–10 doors) typically takes 2–3 days. A 50-door enterprise deployment takes 1–2 weeks depending on civil readiness. We provide a detailed project timeline after the site assessment.

Q11: Do you work outside Bengaluru?

Yes. Layerix is operationally active across Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, and Gujarat, with the capability to serve clients across all Indian states.

Q12: What ongoing support do you provide after installation?

We offer AMC contracts covering annual reader cleaning, firmware updates, battery replacement, and fault response. Break Fix is available for one-off incidents. Resident Manager and Service Manager options are available for large facilities requiring ongoing on-site support.
