ISONAS Pure IP Access Control Solution Deployed at Engel Electric Company's Brand New 8,000-Square-Foot Facility in Illinois
Leading Colorado-based access control manufacturer's solution creates seamless access for its certified security integrator and helps protect costly equipment and inventory.
BOULDER, Colo., Oct. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ISONAS Inc., a leading IP access control and hardware solution provider and part of the Allegion family of brands, today announced that the ISONAS™ Pure IP™ access control solution has been installed at a new 8,000-square-foot facility in Rockford, IL. Engel Electric Company, a leading full-service electrical contracting company in the Midwest, is also a certified independent ISONAS security integrator who sells and installs the ISONAS hardware and software to its customer base. Engel Electric Co. believes in the power of the ISONAS Pure IP™ solution not only for their own customers, but for themselves. The time had come to implement this powerful solution at their very own facility.
With two offices located in Sterling and Rockford, Illinois, Engel Electric Co. was looking to implement an access control system in the spring of 2019 to help secure their new 8,000-square-foot facility in Rockford. "After working with ISONAS on another access control project in Illinois, Engel Electric Co. was convinced that out of all the access control systems available in the market, that ISONAS was the best choice of them all," states Craig Thompson, technology project manager at Engel Electric Co.
Safety has always been Engel Electric Company's top concern, as well as protecting their inventory of expensive equipment. A huge challenge facing the company was not having the ability to change access on a per-job basis. Typically, there would be different crews working on various projects off hours, and Engel Electric Co. did not have a way to control the levels of accessibility at different times of the day. In addition, with over 50 employees on staff and various work crews coming in and out daily, there was no way to control unauthorized access at either location. Engel Electric Co. was also looking for an access control system that was able to integrate with their existing iPhone video door entry system and wanted seamless entry control across both office locations.
The project consisted of two ISONAS RC-04 Pure IP reader-controllers installed at Engel Electric Company's new facility in Rockford within a week's timeframe in May 2019. The deployment included one mullion reader on the front door and one keypad reader on the employee entrance. In addition to the ISONAS hardware, the ISONAS Pure Access™ software was used to give Engel Electric Company's management team the ability to control access remotely. Pure Access, ISONAS's industry-leading software, is a cloud-based access control application that provides users the ability to manage their access control from anywhere at any time, on any device. "Partnering with ISONAS was one of the first and best decisions we made when opening our Rockford office and our low voltage division," says Thompson.
"We are extremely happy that our own certified security integrator was able to implement our access control solution seamlessly and efficiently to help secure their new facility," states Jonathan Mooney, ISONAS sales leader. "With so many customization options available, the ISONAS solution will continue to grow and expand alongside Engel Electric Co. in the years to come, just like the relationship. ISONAS will continue to deliver true value to its customers now and well into the future."
With 10-15 users at the new Rockford facility, it was important for Engel Electric to get everyone trained and up to speed quickly. "The ISONAS Pure Access software was very user-friendly, which made us able to almost plug and play," says Thompson. Recently, two ISONAS RC-04 keypads were installed at the Sterling location to allow for seamless access between both facilities without having to issue keys.
