Flexible access control for SMEs
» CLIQ LOCAL MANAGER IS A locally installed software that is used for the day-to-day management of CLIQ master key systems . Ideal for SMEs , it allows system managers to perform a variety of tasks based on the specific needs of their environment , including managing access rights of user keys locally via desktop programming devices , and now , wall programming devices too .
Tony Barnes , Business Development Manager – Digital Key Systems at Abloy UK , explained : “ Short-term changes to access rights and schedules can be implemented much more quickly , especially if several wall programming devices are installed across a premises . However , a high level of security is maintained through regular revalidation , minimising the risk of lost keys for peace of mind .”
The user-friendly interface offers the ability to add or amend users and change the access rights of CLIQ keys with the companion programming device . System managers can limit access according to 32 programmable time slots , with key audit trails available .
