Access Control Systems in Manhattan

Whether upgrading an aging system or creating a new solution from scratch, we have you covered in Manhattan

EZ Switch delivers fully customized access control systems to clients throughout Manhattan—helping businesses manage entry points with smarter, safer solutions. Whether you need to control access at one door or oversee security across multiple properties, our systems are built to scale and adapt. From biometric access and mobile credentials to fully cloud-based control platforms, we design systems that keep Manhattan properties secure and easy to manage.

In a place as fast-paced and high-security as Manhattan—from high-rises in Midtown to retail spaces in SoHo—our access control systems are made to meet the specific demands of New York City's core borough.

Modern Access Control Systems in Manhattan are Practically Limitless.

From single-door readers to sophisticated access control systems across multiple locations, EZ Switch provides Manhattan clients with tailored security solutions. Whether it’s for a building entrance, office door, or loading dock, having the right system makes access seamless and secure.

Our technology lineup includes more than just standard keypads. We offer advanced options like RFID cards, NFC, fingerprint readers, facial recognition, and mobile access via Bluetooth, WiFi, or QR codes.

Because every Manhattan property is unique, we’ll help you choose a system that aligns perfectly with your building’s layout and security needs.

Single Door Access Control Systems in Manhattan

If you're managing just one entrance at your Manhattan location—whether it’s a private office, secure suite, or warehouse—we offer straightforward stand-alone access control solutions. These range from card readers and keypads to fingerprint devices, with options to combine them for added security. Our systems can integrate with exit sensors, detect when doors are left open, and automatically lock after hours, which is ideal for businesses operating in Manhattan’s dense urban environment.

Multi-Door Access Control Systems in Manhattan (Traditional)

For Manhattan facilities needing to control access across several doors or floors, our traditional wired systems offer centralized and consistent management. These systems support a variety of credentials—biometrics, keypads, RFID, NFC, and even mobile-enabled access. You can configure each door to meet specific access requirements, giving you total control over entry throughout your Manhattan property.

Anti-Passback Access Control Systems in Manhattan

Anti-passback is an industry term for situations where the client needs users to check in and out of the location.

For example: an employee scans in when they enter the site, and need to scan out to leave the site. This way their comings and goings are tracked, and they can’t pass their credentials to the next person to enter the location.

To enforce proper check-out procedures and prevent unauthorized re-entry, we can install readers on both sides of the door. While the door still locks from only one side as per Manhattan building codes, credentials are disabled if users exit without scanning out. System administrators can override the restriction if needed, ensuring both security and flexibility.

Man-Trap Systems

For facilities in Manhattan where shared rooms require exclusive access by different users, a man-trap access control system is the best option. These systems lock out all other users once someone has entered the space, and access isn’t re-enabled until the person exits and scans out. It’s a practical solution for secure labs, data centers, and sensitive shared environments.

Privileges of Access Control Systems in Manhattan


  • Scheduling

    Some employees only need access during specific shifts. You may have a building that shuts down for the weekend. With proper configuration, your access system will keep track of your employees’ entries, lock them out after hours, and send alerts when an unauthorized entry is attempted.


    Sometimes you need different access permissions even within the same building. Every employee is allowed into the lobby, but once inside, each only needs access to their own department. We can help you with that.


  • Lock-out

    Scan a particular card, or the manger’s card twice, and you can temporarily lock out all other employees. Scan the card again, and the door is back in normal operation. You can do all of that with a fingerprint too.


  • Stay unlocked

    Almost like Lock-out, but in reverse. Using a designated credential, or central control system, you can unlock the door on a long term basis, until you scan the credential again.

IP based Access Control Systems in Manhattan

IP based systems simplify the wiring necessary to control multiple doors. With power and a network connection individual door controllers can communicate with each other and behave as a single, unified system.

Cloud Based Access Control Systems

Cloud-based access control systems allow Manhattan clients to manage multiple access points through a centralized web dashboard. Whether you're overseeing one office or several locations, these systems offer remote control and real-time updates. Even during internet outages, readers continue to operate based on stored access data—keeping your Manhattan building secure without interruption.

Cellphone as a Credential for Access Control Systems in Manhattan

Smartphones offer a secure and practical way to manage access for Manhattan properties. With most people already carrying their phones everywhere, mobile credentials reduce the need for cards or fobs, and each device comes with its own unique identifier.

These systems support various forms of mobile access—such as Bluetooth, WiFi, or apps that require biometric or PIN-based authentication. We provide Manhattan businesses with access control systems that integrate the latest mobile credential options.

Biometric Readers

Biometric technology provides highly secure access control for Manhattan facilities. Fingerprints, palm scans, iris recognition, and facial ID are nearly impossible to duplicate and don’t require carrying anything extra—making them ideal for tight-security environments.

With more providers entering the biometric space, these solutions are now more accessible and cost-effective than ever for Manhattan clients looking for both security and convenience.

Distress - Access Control Systems in Manhattan

We can configure your Manhattan access control system to respond immediately in critical scenarios like lockdowns, silent alarms, or emergency lock-outs. These responses can be triggered through a smartphone, special card, double fingerprint scan, or panic button—giving you discreet control when it’s needed most.

FAQ's - Access Control Systems in Manhattan

  • What is the purpose of an access control system?

    Access control systems are designed to manage who can enter or exit a space, and under what conditions. By using keypads, cards, biometrics, or even smartphones, these systems allow businesses to secure doors, restrict access to sensitive areas, and monitor entry activity in real time. The goal is to increase security, reduce unauthorized entry, and streamline the way users interact with a space—all while maintaining convenience and compliance.

  • What are the different types of access control systems?

    Access control systems come in many forms, each suited for different needs. Single-door systems are ideal for smaller operations and can use keypads, cards, or biometrics. Traditional multi-door systems require centralized controllers and offer consistent, secure access across a facility. IP-based and cloud-based access control systems simplify wiring and enable centralized management across multiple locations. Other variations include anti-passback systems, man-trap setups, and mobile-based credential systems. EZ Switch works with all of these to deliver tailored solutions.

  • How secure are modern access control systems?

    Modern access control systems are extremely secure when properly installed and maintained. Advanced technologies like fingerprint readers, iris scanners, encrypted mobile credentials, and anti-passback features make unauthorized access significantly harder. Many systems also provide audit trails, alerts, and remote access control via cloud-based platforms. EZ Switch designs and installs access control systems with a deep focus on security, reliability, and future-proofing—ensuring that your system keeps up with evolving threats.

  • Can access control systems be used with smartphones?

    Yes, smartphones are becoming a popular and secure credential option for access control systems. Users can gain access via QR codes, Bluetooth signals, NFC chips, or secure apps linked to their phone’s unique identifiers. These methods are convenient, hard to duplicate, and eliminate the need for physical cards or key fobs. At EZ Switch, we offer cutting-edge access control systems that integrate seamlessly with smartphones for streamlined, touchless entry.

  • Why should I choose EZ Switch for my access control system?

    EZ Switch offers unmatched expertise in designing, installing, and upgrading advanced access control systems tailored to your environment.
