The long holiday break is over, and as businesses across Malaysia return to full operations, it is the perfect time to ensure your facility’s security infrastructure is fully operational. After a week of reduced staffing or total closures, small technical issues can often go unnoticed.
At ELID, we believe proactive maintenance is the key to long-term reliability. Here is our recommended 5-point checklist to ensure your building remains secure and fully functional for the rest of Q1.
1. Audit Your Access Logs
The first thing you should do is pull a report from your system. Look for any unusual access attempts or "door forced" alarms that occurred while the office was empty. It’s the easiest way to identify potential vulnerabilities before they become a risk.
2. Check Battery Backups (UPS)
Power fluctuations are common during festive periods. Ensure your controllers and backup batteries are still holding a full charge. A weak battery today leads to a system failure during the next power trip.
3. Inspect Your ANPR & CCTV Hardware
Check that your ANPR 3.0 cameras haven't been shifted by heavy rain or environmental factors. Ensure the lenses are clean so the AI logic can accurately read plates without delay. A quick physical inspection ensures the system remains reliable.
4. Review "Guest Access" & Temporary Cards
Did you issue any temporary cards for contractors or cleaners before the break? Now is the time to deactivate any cards that weren't returned or are no longer needed. Tightening your database today prevents unauthorized entry tomorrow.
5. Verify Your Local Support Path
If you noticed any lag or software glitches this morning, don't wait for a total breakdown. One of the biggest advantages of using ELID is that our technical support and spare parts are right here in Petaling Jaya. We are a local manufacturer, which means you get immediate assistance without the wait for overseas shipping.
