High-Security & Regulated Facilities

Control Movement. Protect Staff. Support Compliance in Critical Environments.

Security checkpoints and mental health facilities demand more than basic door locks. They require carefully controlled access, staff protection, and compliance with emergency egress standards.

At CDS, we design and install access control systems built for high-risk, high-sensitivity environments, combining secure entry, zone-based restrictions, delayed egress, and staff safety features that meet the unique needs of regulated facilities.

What We Help You Control

Room-to-Room Movement & Containment

Restrict movement between interior zones using badge, keypad, or biometric access with clearance-based rules and role-specific permissions.

Staff & Patient Safety

Secure entry points, nurse stations, and high-risk areas to prevent unauthorized movement, protect staff, and reduce elopement risks in mental health facilities.

Entry Screening & Intercoms

Monitor visitors, vendors, or shift change access via audio/video intercoms at gates and controlled entries with remote unlock from secure stations.

Controlled Shift Access & Emergency Lockdowns

Schedule access by shift, lockdown specific wings when needed, and instantly revoke credentials – all from a centralized dashboard.

Delayed Egress & Code-Compliant Hardware

Install panic hardware, delayed egress maglocks, and override systems that meet local fire and safety codes
