Upgrade The Security Of Your Business With RFID Key Cards

By Brenda Warner


The latest in locking technology is on the market and quickly becoming the standard among the industry. Hotel chains especially have benefited from this new technology and reaping the rewards of it. That technology is the use of RFID key cards, a new type of locking system for businesses that provides a higher level of security.

RFID stands for radio frequency identification. This type of technology is different from the magnetic stripe key cards and computer chip cards on the market, they are quickly fading in the background in the wake of RFID technology. The advantages of using the newer locking system are many.

The main advantage is the level of security that guests in hotel chains that use this technology have. There are no longer problems with illegal entry, or losing keys or keys not working due to being unreadable or worn from use. Magnetic strip and computer chip cards are notorious for malfunctioning due to repeated use. This was very costly for hotels as they either had to change the lock or get new cards that worked.

RFID technology features a locking system that is keyless and does not require physical contact with the lock itself. The card only has to be place within proximity of the locking device and the radio frequency that controls the lock will open it. Since it does not require being place in the lock to open, this reduces wear and tear on the card keys, thereby saving the business or hotel money in replacement costs.

Those who enjoy staying at hotels on their vacations or business can feel certain that their room is secure when they leave. It gives a certain confidence in the hotel chain that provides this service, and the keyless entry often creates repeat business as the customers return again and again. The uniqueness of the keyless entry is a wonder to hotel guests who seem to like using the latest technology.

As more and more businesses like hotels upgrade their locking systems, they are turning to RFID technologies. Pretty soon, this will be the standard among many hotel chains. Right now, as this system is gaining acceptance, not only for the financial benefit but for the betterment of security within a business, many will find that it just may be the only solution to keyless entry.

Businesses are benefiting in a big way as they use this method to save money, time and maintenance costs. There is very little maintenance with keyless entry because the locks are not touched with human hands or by any standard keyed entry method. In this way, a company can save money, and the cost of replacing locks becomes obsolete.

Technology is always progressing toward better and more refined ways of doing things. As society and business quickly adapt to newer technologies, there is always something better that comes along to replace the standard methods. As a business grows and develops over time, RFID technology is paving the way for more security on a budget, and this spells profits for businesses everywhere.
