Why Use ID Badges in Your Building

A small staff of security personnel may not be able to monitor your entire building, especially if you have a low level of physical security.

Why would you want to limit access to your buildings or facilities? You might be concerned about theft of information or materials. You might also want to ensure the safety of your employees, clients, or students. Or you might be primarily concerned about avoiding liability risks when unauthorized or temporary individuals, such as an electrician, are on your premises. You may want to minimize the chance that an individual will be in an area he or she is not supposed to be in and end up getting hurt.

A small staff of security personnel may not be able to monitor your entire building, especially if you have a low level of physical security. Essentially, you would have to deputize your employees to be on the lookout for strangers and make sure that they're where they should be. With a few inexpensive supplies and tools, you can accomplish this and ensure a higher level of security for your business.

Self-expiring visitor badges make it easy for everyone to see that a visitor is authorized to be in your building. Self-expiring badges are available for half-days, single days, weeks, or months. You select one that limits the duration of a visitor's invitation. A valid badge is white; when it expires, bright red diagonal lines will appear, making it evident to anyone who encounters the individual that the badge has expired.

Self-expiring parking permits are also available. If a security guard is sweeping the parking lot regularly, he or she will only have to look in the window of the vehicle to see whether its parking permit has expired. The guard will not have to bother with a time-consuming check of license plates or times.
