Security
MCA can provide systems that will report and record incidents that breach a protected or sensitive area. These means are accomplished by Intrusion Systems.

Access Control Systems
An access control system in its best description is truly an investment in the future because it allows for many applications such as increased security, overall building integrity and operational efficiency. By controlling access and providing recorded data that verifies who has accessed a building or any secured area within a building; access control systems provide safety for employees and protection of physical and intellectual property. Most access control systems integrate effectively with burglar alarms, CCTV (Closed Circuit Television), HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), elevator controls, time and attendance, asset tracking and photo identification/badging systems. Systems may include cared readers, proximity readers, biometric readers, bar-code readers, pendants and keypads.

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS OF ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS

• Life Safety - controlling violence in the workplace
• Intermediate Security Response - by real time reporting
• Asset Protection - of intellectual or real property
• Increased Employee Productivity
• Multi - Tenant Building Integration
• Reduced Security Costs - in on-site security
• Improved Accountability - with effective monitoring

Closed Circuit Television
Closed Circuit Television ( CCTV) is surveillance and observation system that is created by the use of video cameras, multiplexers, and time lapse VCR's and Digital Video Recorders (DVR).

Detention Systems
Most commonly used in prisons, jails, police departments or facilities that require physical detainment, Detention Systems require the use of one or more of the above mentioned systems in addition to a main control console that can be controlled from one point and manned at all times. Magnetic door locks, electromechanical locks and strikes are available.

Intercom
Similar to regular intercoms commonly associated with offices everywhere, Security Intercoms offer the added benefit of recording capabilities. Although typically associated with detention systems, security intercoms can also be installed in buildings that require security guards, gate control. In addition, these systems provide voice for emergency phone stations which are typically found in hospitals, parking garages or any area requiring immediate two way communications.
