Modern access control isn’t just about software or readers — it requires the right door hardware, installed and integrated correctly, to function safely and reliably.
SHARC designs and installs new commercial access control systems, including intercom solutions and electronic door hardware, for businesses and commercial properties across Edmonton and surrounding areas. Our systems are built to manage doors, users, and entry points — and to integrate properly with automatic door operators where required. We do it all.

MOST COMMERCIAL CLIENTS COME TO US BECAUSE THEY’RE DEALING WITH
Unsecured or poorly controlled entry points
Access control systems that weren’t installed with the correct door hardware
Shared keys or lost credentials creating security risk
No reliable way to verify visitors before unlocking doors
Manual processes for granting or revoking access
Limited visibility into who entered and when
Manual or fragmented systems involving multiple contractors
A PROPERLY DESIGNED SYSTEM DELIVERS
Controlled entry with clear authorization rules
Properly integrated door hardware and locking devices
Visitor verification before doors are unlocked
Instant credential revocation when staff or tenants change
Time-based and role-based access permissions
Audit logs for accountability and review
WHAT WE DO (ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM SALES + INSTALLATION)
1) Access Control Systems (New Installations)
We design and install access control systems that manage:
- Entry doors and restricted areas
- User credentials (cards, fobs, mobile credentials, PINs)
- Time schedules and permission levels
- Centralized control panels and management software
- Secure audit logs showing access activity
Systems are designed to scale — whether you’re securing a few doors or an entire facility.
2) Intercom Systems (Integrated Entry Control)
Intercoms are a key part of modern controlled-entry systems, especially at main entrances, reception points, and shared access doors.
We install commercial-grade intercom systems that allow staff, tenants, or administrators to:
- See and speak with visitors at the door
- Verify identity before granting access
- Unlock doors remotely from an interior station or mobile device
- Maintain secure entry without leaving their workstation
Intercom system options may include:
- Video intercoms with camera and two-way audio
- Touchscreen or directory-based entry panels
- Mobile-enabled intercoms for remote answering
- Systems designed for durability in commercial environments
We install and support intercom platforms such as Mircom and ButterflyMX, selecting the right solution based on the building type, entry flow, and security requirements.
3) Electronic Door Hardware & Operator Integration
Access control systems rely on the correct door hardware to operate safely and reliably.
We supply and install the electronic door hardware required for access control and intercom systems, including:
- Electric strikes and magnetic locks
- Electronic mortise locks and exit devices
- Door position switches and request-to-exit devices
- Power supplies and control interfaces
Where required, we also integrate access control systems with automatic door operators, ensuring:
- Proper sequencing between access control and door automation
- Safe and code-compliant operation
- A clean, unified solution rather than fragmented systems
This single-provider approach reduces coordination issues and ensures the entire door system works together as intended.
