THE DECISION, FOR A TEAM OF 20

Pick one system for the suite door and any interior door, and get the landlord's written sign-off before anyone drills.

Kisi, Avigilon Alta, Brivo, and Verkada all work; the choice is usually decided by what the base building already runs.
The landlord's approval and the door hardware survey take longer than the install itself.
Keep ten physical fobs for contractors and visitors, because a phone credential is useless to a mover.
