Installing an access control system isn’t just about security — it’s about convenience, liability, and long-term savings. But how much should you budget?
Factors That Affect Cost:
- Size of Property: A small office or 6-unit building will cost less than a multi-story commercial space.
- Door Count & Hardware: Every door needs hardware (electric strikes, magnetic locks), credentials (fobs/cards), and readers.
- Cloud vs. Local Systems: Cloud-based systems often have lower upfront costs, but higher long-term fees.
- Cabling & Infrastructure: If your building is pre-wired, your install may be easier — and cheaper.
Estimated Pricing (as of 2025):
- Small 1–2 door system: $2,000–$4,500
- Medium 3–6 door system: $5,000–$9,000
- Large commercial install: $10,000+
