I would not expect everyone to have a key. Just one key held either in a safe of on the manager for emergencies.
The fact I could bypass the door with a screw driver and a pair of pliers in 60 seconds shows the security was not that good anyway.

If a key was on the door there would be no audit trail of who went through the door or gained ‘valid access’. If a key was on that side of the door why would you need a card reader??
If the lock becomes inactive there are many ways to get around it. If there is a blown fuse there are many ‘tricks’ that can be used to get in. Obviously the door is secure for a reason so you would not want all staff accessing the door with a key, some staff would not have access to the door so it is best to leave it the way it is! I’m sure that many security consultans/project managers would have looked at this before the facility was put into service.

However it is battery backed and on a separate supply to the reader and controller so your point is very valid

Thanks

The system would be blocked. the door handles are necessary to open the system. the doors are blocked without considering what might happen. contingency is essential to make better, smarter decisions.
