We have had the Best Access BASIS system on about 100 entryways using HID proximity keys for about 6 or 7 years. We love it, and the time that I have to spend on repairs and maintenance has been extremely minimal. Remarkable for the amount of use these things get. They are mostly connected to Von Duperin panic bars. We also find that many other departments on campus are dissatisfied with the card-based systems they use and wind up inquiring about our prox system. The BASIS reporting functions are great and very flexible. Also, when needed, Best (although the service has slipped some since they were purchased by Stanley) does a fine job. If you need to know more please contact me.

Approximately 1/2 of our residence hall rooms are using the Campus 1000 system by VingCard Persona (http://www.vingcardpersona.com). This summer we are migrating one hall towards the VingCard system, and hope to migrate the rest of our halls in the near future. Some of our academic buildings have begun using the VingCard locks on some of their labs and storage areas, and it seems to be working well. If you would like more information, I'm happy to discuss with you more about the VingCard system. However, our CS Gold stuff is handled by another department. -- Adam Brock, Student Technology Specialist Baylor University Campus Living & Learning w.254.710.4550 m.254.709.9003 http://www.baylor.edu/resnet http://www.baylor.edu/housing _____ From: The EDUCAUSE Security Discussion Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Paul Younker Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 10:13 AM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: [SECURITY] Physical access control systems We are researching door access control systems for possible implementation in a building we are remodeling. I am looking for some help in identifying potential systems. What door access control systems are some of you using? Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
