Shopping for Building Access Security?

JoeCommodore asks: "At work we are planning a new facility, which will combine a lot of departments into one bigger building. We think it may be time to forgo analog key access and go with access cards (or something like it) for physical security. I could see the benefits (we don't have to collect keys and re-do locks on staff turnover, selective room access, access logs, and so forth). Beyond this, we are pretty clueless on the ins and outs of such systems, so I am asking those of you who have had to shop, install, administer, or even just regularly use such systems, what are your thoughts, recommendations, or opinions? This is pre-building so we can do just about anything within reason."

    They're pretty good at keeping the niggers out.

    The fags, well, you'll have to train them to keep anyone with an Apple laptop out. I know, I know, it's profiling, but screening out Apple users, you'll get about 90% of them!
