Absolute perimeter control. Unbreakable audit trails.
Basic access control is no longer sufficient to secure a modern, multi-site estate. From the car park barrier to the server room door, you need a system that actively prevents unauthorised access, integrates instantly with CCTV, and gives you total command during an incident.
- Touchless facial recognition, no fobs to steal
- Anti-passback, secure-side relays, offline-resilient
- Martyn's Law zone-based lockdown from one console
A fob only proves someone holds plastic. Not who they are.
Synergy Access eliminates buddy punching, credential sharing, and stolen fobs by anchoring your physical security to undeniable biometric verification. Because a stolen card can't spoof a face.
- Touchless facial recognition · Entry in under a second, no lost cards
- Fingerprint readers · Encrypted templates, not storable images
- Anti-passback · Same card, twice inside? System refuses.
Your perimeter doesn't start at reception.
Access control should extend to the property line. Synergy pulls ANPR and CCTV into the same audit trail as your door events, so every vehicle, every alert, every incident is one click away.
ANPR
Barriers open automatically for registered staff and expected visitors. Unrecognised plates trigger instant alerts. Vehicle entry and exit times are logged, so you have a complete picture of site occupancy before anyone reaches the building.

When a forced door or failed access attempt occurs, the platform tags the corresponding CCTV footage automatically. Instead of scrubbing through hours of video, your team clicks the access event log and reviews the clip instantly.

Software capabilities mean nothing if the hardware fails during an attack or a network outage. Our architecture is designed for high-risk, real-world environments. That means routing power through the secure side of the door, caching permissions at the reader, and making the failure mode of every component predictable.
Dynamic threat? Lock down in one command.
When a threat is unfolding, you don't have time to radio a guard to physically lock a door. The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2024, known as Martyn's Law, requires qualifying venues to demonstrate capable lockdown procedures.
Synergy Access gives central security total command. Lock specific doors, seal distinct zones, or secure an entire building with a single command, with no dependency on local staff.

Synel are an outstanding company to work with. The installation team were excellent. We have ended up with a great solution that we plan to expand upon.
End-to-end accountability. No subcontractors.
The security market has a dangerous accountability gap. Software vendors blame hardware manufacturers when a biometric terminal fails. Hardware resellers lack the technical depth to configure complex lockdown protocols. Synel owns every layer, so if a door doesn't lock during a drill, there's no finger-pointing.
