Traka brings the power of electronic access control to your emergency access points
Schools must strike a balance in providing emergency access to first responders, while maintaining strict control and visibility over keys which could otherwise put the school at risk. Traka helps bridge the gap in the use of offline lock boxes to manage emergency access, by providing immediate, regulated key access to local agencies with the security and convenience of your existing access control or security platform.
