Access & Entry

Elevator & Floor Access Control

Quick answer

Elevator and floor access control puts a card reader inside the lift so only the floors permitted for that card can be selected. BearTech supplies and installs the RFID access hardware and works with your lift maintenance company on the panel connection, quoting after a joint survey for buildings across Madhya Pradesh.

In a multi-floor office building, not every employee (or visitor) should be able to reach every floor — a data centre floor, an executive floor, or a sensitive department shouldn't be one lift button-press away for anyone in the building. Elevator access control ties a card/fob reader inside the lift cabin to the floor-selection buttons, so a floor is only selectable if the presented credential is authorised for it.

BearTech implements this using its RFID/access-control hardware wired into the lift's control panel (coordinated with the building's lift vendor for the integration), restricting each employee's or visitor's access to only the floors relevant to them.

This is aimed at multi-tenant or multi-department buildings where floor-level restriction matters — a corporate HQ with a sensitive floor, a building shared by multiple companies, or a hospital separating clinical and administrative floors.

Why the lift company must be involved

Lift access control connects to the lift's own control panel, which is the responsibility of the company that installed or maintains the lift. Before any work, inform them and arrange for their technician to be present during the survey. They will confirm how the panel can accept the access signal and whether any changes are needed on their side. BearTech handles the reader, the cards and the access configuration. Keeping both parties in one conversation avoids delays, protects the lift's maintenance terms, and makes clear who supports which part after installation.

Deciding floor rules for staff, visitors and tenants

Write a simple table: each group of people down one side, each floor across the first row, and a tick where access is allowed. Typical groups are general staff, managers, the IT team, housekeeping, security and visitors. In a shared building, each tenant company's staff may only reach their own floor plus the ground and parking levels. Decide whether some floors stay open during working hours and locked after, and whether certain floors should be reachable only with an escort. This table becomes the basis of the configuration and is easy to update when teams move.

Steps from survey to live floor restrictions

The process usually runs in a clear sequence. First, a joint survey with the lift company to check the cabin and control panel. Second, a quotation from BearTech for the reader, cards and installation, with any lift-side work quoted by the lift company. Third, installation of the reader and connection to the panel, followed by testing on each floor. Fourth, cards are issued as per your floor table and your administrator is shown how to change access. Plan the work for a quieter period, since the lift may be unavailable for a while during testing.
