How to Choose Custom Access Control Mount Solution

A Smart, Secure, and Tailored Approach from GTS Innovative

One Size Doesn’t Fit All—And That’s a Good Thing

In the world of access control, there’s no such thing as a universal solution. Every facility, campus, or commercial property has its own layout, traffic patterns, and security challenges. Trying to force a standard mount into a nonstandard environment? That’s a recipe for frustration and inefficiency.

At GTS Innovative, we know that your security infrastructure is only as strong as its weakest link—and that includes the hardware supporting your access control systems. That’s why we’re big believers in custom access control mounts. They aren’t just about aesthetics; they’re about functionality, flexibility, and futureproofing.

We help businesses large and small get the perfect fit for their unique environments. Whether you're upgrading an outdated setup or building a new system from scratch, we’ll help you make smart choices that deliver long-term security and operational benefits.

Let’s dive into what makes custom access control mounts worth the investment—and how to pick the right one.

Why Custom Access Control Mounts Matter

Security Systems Should Fit You, Not the Other Way Around

When it comes to installing access control technology—like card readers, biometric scanners, or intercom systems—off-the-shelf mounts might work okay in some situations, but they're rarely ideal. That’s where custom access control mounts shine.

Here are just a few reasons why tailored mounts make a world of difference:

✔️ Perfect Fit: Avoid awkward placements and jury-rigged brackets. Custom mounts are precision-engineered for your space and your devices.

✔️ Enhanced Security: A snug, tamper-resistant fit increases physical protection for your devices.

✔️ Professional Aesthetic: Custom mounting solutions look cleaner and more intentional—ideal for client-facing environments.

✔️ Greater Durability: Materials and finishes can be selected to withstand harsh environments, vandalism, or heavy use.

✔️ Improved Accessibility: Mounts can be designed with ADA compliance in mind, or to accommodate unique usage scenarios.

When you're designing an access control strategy, it's not just about what you install—it's how you install it.

Benefits of Custom Mounting Solutions for Security Systems

If you’re still on the fence about going custom, consider the full picture. Tailored access control mount solutions provide measurable benefits for security teams, facilities managers, and users alike:

✔️ Save Money in the Long Run

Sure, custom mounts might cost a bit more upfront, but think about what you’re saving down the line. No more dealing with damaged devices, misaligned equipment, or costly retrofitting mistakes. Custom solutions are built to last, reducing maintenance headaches and keeping everything running smoothly for years to come.

✔️ Install in Half the Time

Forget wrestling with parts that don’t quite fit or jerry-rigging workarounds. Custom mounts are designed specifically for your devices, so installation is a breeze. It’s as easy as plug-and-play, which means less downtime and faster setups.

✔️ Everything in One Place

No one likes cluttered walls or mismatched devices sticking out everywhere. With custom solutions, you can integrate multiple access control devices—like a card reader, keypad, and intercom—onto a single, sleek platform. The result? A clean, professional look that’s efficient and easy to use.

✔️ Built for the Future

Technology changes fast, and your security system should be able to keep up. Custom mounts with modular designs give you the flexibility to add, upgrade, or swap devices without starting from scratch. Whether you're scaling up or adapting to new tech, custom solutions ensure you're ready for whatever comes next.

Custom mounting solutions aren’t just about convenience—they’re about creating a seamless, professional, and future-proof system that works for everyone.

How to Collaborate on a Custom Mounting Project with AccessMounts

Thinking about going custom but not sure where to start? Don’t worry—we’ve got a proven process that makes it simple.

Step 1: Discovery & Requirements

We’ll begin by learning about your environment, your devices, and your access control goals. Whether you’re building from scratch or retrofitting an existing system, this step helps us understand your exact needs.

Step 2: Concept Design

AccessMounts’ team will create design concepts and 3D mockups to visualize how the mount will look and function in your space.

Step 3: Engineering & Prototyping

Once a design is approved, it goes through detailed engineering and prototyping. You’ll have a chance to review the prototype before moving to production.

Step 4: Production & Delivery

Once finalized, the mount is manufactured using high-quality materials and finishes, then delivered ready for installation—with all the necessary hardware included.

Step 5: Support & Modifications

Need changes or expansions down the road? No problem. Our team is here to support upgrades, adjustments, or scaling as needed.

It’s a streamlined, collaborative process designed to get you exactly what you need—without the guesswork.

FYI: What to Consider When Choosing a Custom Mount

Before you begin your project, here are a few key questions to help guide your decisions:

• Where will the mount be installed? Indoors, outdoors, in a high-traffic area, or in a secure zone?

• What types of devices will it hold? Card readers, intercoms, cameras, keypads, biometric scanners?

• What finish or material best fits the environment? Powder-coated for weather resistance? Stainless steel for durability?

• Are there aesthetic or branding considerations? Do you want the mount to blend in, stand out, or match your facility’s design?

• What is your timeline? If you’re working under a tight schedule, let us know early—we can recommend expedited solutions or temporary options.

Real-World Examples of Custom Access Control Mounts in Action

Need inspiration? Here are just a few examples of how businesses and organizations have benefited from going custom:

1. Healthcare Facility with Mixed Access Needs

A busy hospital required multi-device mounting at entrances for staff, patients, and emergency personnel. AccessMounts delivered a sleek, easy-to-sanitize pedestal combining a card reader, intercom, and biometric scanner—improving workflow and hygiene.

2. Corporate Campus with High-End Aesthetic

A tech company wanted mounts that matched their modern exterior finishes. AccessMounts created custom aluminum mounts powder-coated to match the building’s palette—seamlessly integrating high-security access with designer flair.

3. Industrial Site in Harsh Weather

For a logistics center with 24/7 outdoor traffic and exposure to the elements, AccessMounts developed rugged, weatherproof device mounts that included built-in rain shields and reinforced casing to prevent tampering.

These only show just how versatile custom access control mounts can be—and how they solve challenges that off-the-shelf options simply can’t.

The Value of Personalized Solutions for Complex Security Needs

At the end of the day, every facility is unique—and so are its security needs. Trying to fit a square peg into a round hole with off-the-shelf hardware isn’t just inconvenient, it’s potentially risky. Custom access control mounts provide the peace of mind that comes from knowing your system is tailored for security, durability, and performance.

Whether you’re securing a university campus, a logistics hub, a retail chain, or a corporate headquarters, GTS Innovative and AccessMounts are here to provide a truly personalized solution.
