Modern Access Control for Church Facilities

Managing access to a church or place of worship comes with a unique set of responsibilities. It’s not just about security—it’s about stewardship, safety, and creating a welcoming environment for the entire community. Yet for many churches, traditional lock-and-key systems are still the norm, often causing more headaches than they solve.

If you're a church administrator or facility manager, here’s why it's time to rethink your access control—and how mobile access can make your job easier.

The Hidden Costs of Traditional Keys

Physical keys have long been the standard, but they come with serious drawbacks:

Lost or duplicated keys create security gaps and costly rekeying expenses.
Volunteers, staff, and contractors often need access at different times, creating logistical challenges.
No visibility means you never really know who accessed what door—and when.

In short, managing physical keys can quickly become a full-time job in itself.
