The mix of people on site at an airport at any given time will include airport personnel, airline employees, contractors, vendors and travelers. To manage the complex permissions of who is authorized to go where inside and outside the facility, it’s imperative for airports to implement an access control system.
By their very nature, airports are open facilities. Passengers, airport personnel, vendors and others flow through the building at a constant volume that is virtually 24/7. What’s more, airports have many entry points, from the front side (where passengers enter the facility), within the facility itself, and from the rear side, where there is access to the aircraft and runways.
The primary use for key management is right in its name – most applications use it to control and manage their physical keys. By protecting keys, organizations are helping to control access to areas that utilize physical locks.
Ground support at airports and air fields is a critical component in ensuring that airplanes fly on time, properly serviced and without mechanical issues. Airport ground support equipment (GSE) helps to fulfill a broad range of services for the aircraft, from cargo loading to beverage services to refueling to fuselage maintenance. To perform these duties quickly and precisely, allowing for speedy equipment turnaround, ground support personnel must act as a well-oiled machine.

Picture the chaos: a misplaced key throws a wrench into a contractor's schedule, a new retail tenant is slated to move in, but the old tenant still has the keys, and first responders struggle to access a building during an emergency. These scenarios, all too common with traditional key management methods, can wreak havoc on the efficiency and security of a commercial property.
Today’s K12 schools have to be prepared for anything and everything – especially an emergency. With both natural disaster and active shooter events on the rise, it is critical for schools to implement comprehensive emergency preparedness plans that prioritize the safety and well-being of those inside. These plans most often consist of lockdown, evacuation, and shelter-in-place drills with approximately 98% of public school students actively drilled on lockdown procedures.
Securing smart cities with smart locks might be the next big thing – but what about securing small and mid-sized municipalities and cities that still rely on traditional locks and keys? With so much talk about the use of keyless entry, it seems as though the reliance on physical keys that persists throughout all municipalities has been largely overlooked.
