We use Millenium Enterprise door access, Proxy cards integrated with our ID
cards, mostly on outside doors. Good system with user controls for
different buildings or departments. One possible issues, once we passed
the 1000 door mark there has been a few more glitches. For the most part
very reliable, integrated active list from PeopleSoft, easy access imports,
etc. Cat5 and separate low voltage power from the door card reader to the
door controller. Building controller and main door controllers on a
battery backup so we can access the buildings when the power is down.
