Access Control & Intercom Systems
Modern access control is about more than locking doors — it’s about controlling who goes where, when, and how, while maintaining safety, accountability, and compliance. At Add-On Sound & Security Systems Inc., we design and install professional access control and intercom systems built for real-world use.
Our systems are reliable, scalable, and installed to recognized standards — not shortcuts.
Card Access & Credential-Based Systems
We install card-based access control systems that allow you to manage entry without relying on physical keys.
Credential options include:
Proximity cards
Key fobs
PIN keypads
Combination card + PIN systems
Access permissions can be customized by user, door, and schedule, making it easy to control staff access, revoke lost credentials, and track activity when needed.
Door Controllers & Electric Locking Hardware
A control system is only as strong as the hardware it operates.
We install and integrate:
Door controllers
Electric strikes
Magnetic locks
Request-to-exit devices
Door position switches
All hardware is selected based on door type, fire requirements, and usage — and installed to meet electrical, life safety, and building code requirements.
Keypad & Fob Entry Solutions
For applications where cards are not practical, we install standalone or networked keypad and fob systems. These are ideal for:
Staff-only doors
Storage areas
Mechanical rooms
Shared-access facilities
We configure systems that balance security and usability, avoiding over-complicated setups that frustrate users.
Audio & Video Intercom Systems
We design and install audio and video intercom systems for controlled entry points, including:
Main entrances
Secure offices
Apartment and multi-tenant buildings
Commercial and institutional facilities
Intercoms can be integrated with door release systems and, where required, with access control platforms. Video intercoms provide added verification while maintaining privacy and proper viewing angles.
System Expansion & Upgrades
Many clients already have access systems that are outdated, undersized, or partially functional.
We provide:
System expansions
Hardware upgrades
Controller replacements
Integration with existing security or alarm systems
Where possible, we reuse existing infrastructure to reduce cost — but only when it meets reliability and safety standards.
Trusted Brands We Install
We use commercial-grade access control and life-safety components from manufacturers known for reliability, compliance, and long-term support, including:
Mircom
Fire-Lite Alarms by Honeywell
System Sensor
Safety Technology International
Camden Door Controls
Adams Rite (ASSA ABLOY)
Kantech
ICT
These brands are widely used in commercial, institutional, and regulated environments, where reliability and compliance matter.
Built to Code, Designed for Safety
Access control systems interact directly with life safety systems, which means they must be installed correctly.
Our installations consider:
Fire alarm integration
Emergency egress requirements
CSA electrical codes
Privacy and data responsibility
ULC-related system expectations (where applicable)
Doors unlock when they should. Systems fail safely. Nothing is improvised.
Designed for Long-Term Use
We don’t design systems that only work on day one.
Our focus is on:
Clean wiring and labeling
Logical system layouts
Clear documentation
Ease of service and expansion
We install systems we’re comfortable supporting long-term — because we’re local and accountable.
