Access control for buildings and businesses in Gatineau
Gatineau has large office buildings, many of them federal, institutions, plenty of rental housing and a bilingual clientele.
Altea installs access control for residential buildings, retail, offices and industrial sites, under an RBQ licence. We mostly work with UniFi Access: no per-door licence, one app for managers, and a log of every opening. We also handle the door hardware (electric strikes, mag locks, panic bars, automatic operators) and parking gates.
What we install in Gatineau
- Card, NFC, phone and PIN readers (UniFi Access G3)
- Electric strikes, mag locks, deadlatches and panic bars
- Exit buttons, door contacts and door-held alarms
- Parking gates and garage doors (UA-Hub-Gate)
- Hands-free fobs for parking
- Schedules, user groups and access reports
What clients in Gatineau ask us for
- In offices we separate zones (server room, executive area, entrances) and give temporary access to visitors and contractors.
- For institutions we plan zones by role, fast lockdown of every door and clear reports.
- In rental buildings we replace common-door keys with cards or phones: a tenant who moves out means a deactivated card, not a new lock cylinder.
- In retail we control the back room, stockroom and delivery door, with a per-employee log.
