ISONAS Inc., an IP access control and hardware solution and part of the Allegion family of brands, announced its access control solution was selected by Oakwood University Church in Huntsville, Ala. The Oakwood University Church provides spiritual nurture to over 2,000 members and 1,600 students on the campus of Oakwood University, a historical African American university founded in 1896. In the spring of 2016, Oakwood University Church security personnel conducted a comprehensive security assessment of the campus and submitted its recommendations to the church’s senior pastor, Dr. Carlton Byrd. It was recommended that the church needed to improve security at their facilities and make major changes in the way access was controlled. Instead of having hundreds of keys assigned to staff members, the church needed to control access electronically and wire all entrances and doors for an automated entry system. To meet this new requirement, the church needed to find an access control solution that was easy to manage from one unified platform, while also integrating seamlessly with its existing video surveillance system. The church felt ISONAS was the perfect choice for this.
