Authorized Systems Dealer
Safe and Sound Security designs and installs Avigilon door access systems for small businesses and multi-site enterprises. Avigilon access control runs on two platforms: Avigilon Alta, the cloud-native system formerly known as OpenPath, and Avigilon Unity with the Access Control Manager (ACM) appliance for on-premise deployments. Both secure every door, gate, and entry point around the clock through encrypted readers, mobile credentials, and a web-based dashboard. ACM scales from a single building to a large enterprise network, so your team can grant, revoke, or audit access the moment a request happens.
Wide Integration
Avigilon access control integrates with Avigilon video on one interface, plus wireless locks, biometric readers, and HID credentials. Combining access and video cuts cost and speeds investigations.
Unified Management
One dashboard maps people to doors, departments, and sites across your portfolio. Administrators manage each location remotely, from issuing a credential to a lockdown.
Easy Synchronization
Avigilon access control syncs with your HR and IT identity systems through directory integration. When someone is hired or let go, their access updates automatically, so credentials never outlive employment.
System Redundancy
Avigilon access control supports hot standby auto-failover, saving policies, settings, and credentials onto backup appliances so access keeps working if the main controller fails.
Client Reviews
Customers value Avigilon building access control for the way it unites every security system across multiple locations. Operators can check in on all their facilities from one dashboard, without spending time traveling to each site.

Avigilon Access Control Reseller and Installer
Safe and Sound Security sells, installs, integrates, and services Avigilon access control for businesses and government agencies nationwide. Avigilon builds the platform, but few contractors install and support it on site. Our technicians handle the full job: readers, controllers, key cards, mobile credentials, locksets, and the ACM appliance, then configure the software and connect it to your existing doors and cameras. Whether you need a few doors at one location or a future-ready system across a national portfolio, we design the Avigilon solution to match. See our Avigilon access control installation and support and broader access control installers services.
Repair & Maintenance
After installation, Safe and Sound Security keeps your Avigilon access control running with ongoing repair and maintenance. Our technicians test readers and controllers, push firmware and software updates, audit active credentials, and verify failover so a hardware fault never locks your team out. With 19+ years installing and servicing building access control, we catch small faults before they turn into security gaps. Regular maintenance keeps your system aligned with current Avigilon releases and your own staffing changes.
Mobile and Touchless Credentials
Avigilon access control turns a phone into a credential. Avigilon Alta supports mobile credentials on a smartphone, plus key cards, fobs, and wave-to-unlock readers for hands-free entry at busy doors. Administrators issue or revoke a credential remotely in seconds, with no plastic card to print or collect. The Avigilon Control Center gives your team one place to manage credentials, set schedules, and respond to events. Safe and Sound Security sets up the credential mix that fits how your people move through the building.
What Avigilon Access Control Costs
What you pay for Avigilon access control depends on a few things, not a single sticker price. The biggest cost drivers are the number of doors and entry points, the number of controllers, whether you choose cloud (Avigilon Alta) or on-premise (Avigilon Unity) licensing, the credential types you issue, and installation labor for wiring, mounting, and configuration. On-premise systems carry a larger upfront hardware cost, while cloud systems spread cost across a subscription that covers updates and support. Ongoing maintenance, future door additions, and integrations with video or identity systems also factor in. Safe and Sound Security gives you a clear quote after a free site survey, so you see exactly what your system and installation will cost.
Access Control and Video on One Avigilon Platform
Avigilon’s biggest advantage is that access control and video security run on one platform. When a door is forced or held open, the system pulls up the matching camera feed, so your team sees what happened instead of guessing. Avigilon Unity Video and the Avigilon Control Center tie access events to recorded footage, and AI-powered Appearance Search locates a person across cameras in minutes.
Avigilon Alta vs Avigilon Unity: Cloud or On-Premise
The main decision when buying Avigilon access control is cloud or on-premise. Avigilon Alta is the cloud-native platform, formerly OpenPath. It runs on a subscription, manages multiple sites remotely, and updates automatically, a strong fit for growing businesses that want mobile-first access without on-site servers. Avigilon Unity, paired with the Access Control Manager appliance, keeps everything on-premise. Your data stays on the local network and you own the hardware, with no cloud dependency, which suits government, defense, finance, and healthcare facilities with strict data-control rules. Both platforms support mobile credentials, video integration, and remote lockdown. Safe and Sound Security installs both and helps you weigh data control, budget, and site count.
