Control Panels and Kits

Control panels and kits are the central nervous system of any effective security infrastructure. Comprehensive solutions featuring high-quality components from industry leaders like Paxton, Keri Systems, Watchnet, and Altronix are available. These systems offer integration capabilities, allowing you to build a security network that matches your facility requirements while providing the reliability you need for continuous protection.


Transform Your Security Infrastructure with Advanced Control Solutions

Understanding Control Panel Fundamentals

Security control panels function as command centers that process information from various sensors, readers, and access points throughout your facility. The right control panel kit provides you with:

     ● Complete system management from a single interface

     ● Multiple door and reader monitoring capabilities

     ● Integration with existing security infrastructure

     ● Scalable options for facilities of all sizes

Modern control panels from brands like Paxton’s NET2 series deliver strong performance in compact, professional-grade enclosures. These solutions allow for comprehensive security monitoring while maintaining a discreet profile in your facility. Control panels integrate seamlessly with Cabinet Locks to provide secure, programmable access to drawers, storage enclosures, and sensitive compartments.

Selecting the Right Kit for Your Needs

When evaluating control panel options, consider these key factors:

Door Capacity and Reader Integration

Keri Systems offers solutions ranging from NXT-2D-MSC-NE for smaller applications with 2-door/4-reader capabilities to NXT-4D-MSC-NE supporting 4-door/8-reader configurations. This range ensures you can select the right size for your security requirements.

Control panel systems rely on validated Credentials to authenticate users and grant access across designated entry points.

Enclosure Options

Many control kits come with purpose-built enclosures designed to house your security components. Watchnet’s WAC series includes models with integrated enclosures, like the WAC-2D2T-ENC and WAC-8D8T-ENC, which protect your control electronics while helping with proper installation.

When integrated with control panels, Crash Bars provide fast egress in emergencies while maintaining access restrictions.

Power Management Solutions

A reliable power supply is essential for continuous security operations. Altronix’s AL125X220 power supply ensures your control panels maintain functionality during power fluctuations, providing the consistent protection your facility demands.

Building Your Comprehensive Security System

The best security solutions combine quality control panels with compatible readers, sensors, and software. Look for systems offering:

     ● Resistant components like Keri’s NXT-4RE reader

     ● Input/output boards, such as Paxton’s NET2 I/O Board, for expanded functionality

     ● Backup power capabilities for continuous operation
