An access control system in Dammam built around your site

Keys get copied, guards forget faces, and paper visitor books tell you nothing after an incident. An access control system in Dammam replaces all of that with clear rules: which person or vehicle can enter which door or gate, at what time, with every entry logged. If a card is lost or an employee leaves, you cancel access in seconds.

We design each system around your site: the number of doors and gates, shift patterns, visitors and contractors, and how many guards you have. Because we also install CCTV and networks, all of it can work together on one secure platform.

  • Proximity card, mobile and PIN readers
  • Fingerprint and face recognition terminals
  • Turnstiles, speed gates and door locks
  • Visitor and contractor management
  • Time and attendance reporting

ANPR number plate recognition in Saudi compounds and industrial gates

ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) cameras read a vehicle's plate as it arrives and open the barrier only for approved vehicles. Residents and staff drive straight in, while unknown vehicles are held for the guard. Every movement is recorded with a plate image and time, which is useful for investigations and contractor billing.

We set up ANPR number plate recognition for Saudi residential compounds, factory and industrial gates, logistics yards, office car parks and hotels. Cameras are positioned and tuned for Saudi plates, day and night, with barriers, loop detectors and intercoms for visitors.

How Waves delivers access control and ANPR

Site survey

We review every door, gate and lane, traffic volumes and who needs access, then agree the security level for each area.

Design and quote

You get a layout of readers, locks, barriers and cameras, with cabling routes and a clear itemised quote.

Frequently asked questions

Can access control work with our existing CCTV?

In most cases, yes. We check your current cameras and recorder during the survey and link door and gate events to the matching video where the systems support it. If your CCTV is old, we can plan a staged upgrade.

Is biometric access better than cards?

Biometrics stop people from lending cards, so they suit high-security areas and attendance tracking. Cards are faster and easier for large numbers of users and visitors. Many sites use cards for general doors and biometrics for sensitive rooms.

How accurate is ANPR on Saudi number plates?

Accuracy depends mainly on camera position, lighting and vehicle speed. We place and tune cameras for each lane and test with real vehicles, day and night, before handover. Guards can always open the barrier manually if needed.

How do visitors get in?

Visitors can be pre-registered by the host, given a temporary card or QR pass at reception, or let in by the guard through an intercom. Every visit is logged with time and host.

What happens during a power or network cut?

Controllers keep working with stored rules and can run on backup power. Doors are set to fail safe or fail secure based on fire-safety and security needs, which we agree with you during design.

Can we manage several gates or buildings from one place?

Yes. Multiple doors, gates and even separate sites can run on one central system over your network. Managers see all events and reports in one screen, and access changes apply everywhere at once. We secure this connection like any other business system.

Do you cover sites outside Dammam?

Yes. We are based in Al Khobar and work in Dammam, Dhahran, Jubail and other cities in the Kingdom.
