BUSINESS SOLUTIONS EXAMPLES

Ditch Records

For over two decades Ditch Records has offered Victoria's widest selection of new and used Vinyl and CD's and supported local artists seeking an outlet for their independent releases. As with all retail shops, especially independent local business, competition from on-line sellers has made the margin of error tighter and the actions of shoplifters evermore impactful. A recent upgrade to Wisenet Wave video management software has allowed the high-resolution cameras installed by Versatech a decade ago to make use of the latest advances in surveillance technology. This includes the ability to perform lightning-fast searches for suspicious activity over multiple days in a busy environment, simplifying the task of identifying thefts and dealing with offenders.

NIȽ TU,O Child and Family Services Society

The NIȽ TU,O Child and Family Services Society proudly serves the Beecher Bay, Pauquachin, Tsartlip, Songhees,  Tsawout, Tseycum And T'sou-Ke  First Nations. When they had the opportunity to expand and update their administrative offices and community space in Central Saanich they knew that access to the space using mechanical keys and locks would be cumbersome and could compromise security. By utilizing a Kantech access control system installed by Versatech they can easily provide fobs to various groups and manage when and where those credentials will work.

 

Here a few scenarios typical of community spaces that can be handled easily by a Kantech access control system;

·       Multiple door unlock schedules. For example, have the public reception door unlock from 9:00 – 5:00 Monday through Friday, while the community dining space opens to the public from 5:00 – 8:00 pm Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

·       Program a user credential that only provides access to Meeting Room B on Thursday evenings from 7:00 – 9:00 pm.

·       Setup a card reader for an event hall that allows a facilitator to lock and unlock the door by “double-tapping” their credential, providing an easy way to allow member access to ad hoc meetings.

·       Integrate the access control and alarm systems so a valid user entering a space automatically disarms the alarm without having to memorize infrequently used alarm codes.

8 Bastion Square

The upper floors of this heritage office/restaurant structure perched above the inner harbour in historic Bastion Square were renovated and re-configured as a multi-tenant commercial space by The Salient Group. Knowing that over time commercial spaces will change along with the needs of the tenants who occupy them, Versatech designed and installed systems that can easily be re-configured and added to as needed. This includes an advanced 2N entryphone system with audio and video capabilities, used to buzz in visitors and control which floors they have access to. The Kantech Entrapass Web platform was also installed allowing the property manager to remotely manage client access fobs, while also making this capability directly accessible to tenants who may require a greater level of control over their space.
