Centralised Security Management for Multi-Site Commercial Facilities

Norpass3 delivers powerful access management for corporate offices, manufacturing plants, educational campuses, and multi-tenant buildings where centralised credential control is essential.

Facilities managers can configure time-based access levels, monitor real-time events, and generate compliance reports from a single intuitive interface—whether managing 10 doors or 200 across distributed locations.

The software excels in environments requiring visitor management, roll-call/muster capabilities, and time-attendance integration. Healthcare facilities benefit from controlled pharmacy access, while warehouses use anti-passback features to enforce loading bay procedures.

The built-in Virtual System allows installers to pre-configure entire deployments off-site, dramatically reducing on-site commissioning time and business disruption.
