University access controlG4Tec’s range of flexible Symmetry™ security solutions are ideally suited to help protect and secure Schools, Colleges and Universities against a variety of threats, theft and nuisance behaviour.

Ranging from simple access control systems, through to fully integrated security solutions that can control and monitor numerous remote sites and campuses.

The security management system can evolve as your requirements develop and can be extended or upgraded in line with your needs with minimal disruption to daily life.

Our latest Symmetry Video Management Solution can be tightly integrated into the security management system. Symmetry Video offers powerful, easy to use software and our Edge Network Video Server (ENVS™) is the latest in CCTV recording and video diagnostic technology. Our system therefore provides the complete integrated package providing users with an unrivalled, advanced solution for single or multi-site applications ….. All on a single platform, on one system!

Smart Cards in Education – One Card Can Do It All

K12 Access ControlWith G4Tec’s Smartcard technology, several aspects of your college or university can be managed by using just one card. A microprocessor chip within the card stores biometric data and other useful information, allowing you to tailor it to your specific needs.

  • Student ID – Add a photo to the card and it makes the perfect ID.
  • Enrolment – Students can swipe the card to prove their identity and schedule for classes.
  • Library Card – Manage library accounts and track overdue fines.
  • Door Access – Eliminate cumbersome keys and use the card to access residence halls, laboratories, studios, etc.


  • Cashless Vending
    • Pay for meals in the cafeteria or student union eliminating the need for cash
    • Purchase soft drinks or snacks from vending machines
    • Use the card to pay for photocopying, launderette usage, or parking, eliminating the need for exact change
    • Eliminates the need for students to carry cash and therefore help reduce theft

Using a Smartcard system also offers increased efficiencies and cost gains as administration of the Smartcard is very easy for staff. One card is used for each student, rather than issuing separate cards for student ID, meals, library, and electronic security. One database, one card…it’s that easy.
