Door Access Control in Southaven, MS
Door Access Control for stores, restaurants, and offices across Southaven — controlled back-of-house and stockroom access with full audit trails.
Southaven blends big retail — Tanger Outlets and the Snowden Grove event complex — with a heavy distribution and cold-storage corridor along Stateline Road and a major regional hospital in Baptist Memorial-DeSoto. It's the first stop across the Mississippi line and one of DeSoto County's busiest commercial markets.
Outlet retail needs entrance and register coverage; the Stateline cold-storage and fulfillment buildings need dock cameras, yard coverage, and access control at scale. Mississippi's alarm and low-voltage rules differ from Tennessee's, and we install to them.

Access work in Mississippi
Mississippi splits the work into two contractor classifications: an alarm/access/security class and a separate low-voltage communications class that explicitly covers closed-circuit video but excludes alarms. Commercial projects of $50,000 or more require a state contractor license.
Local building departments handle permits; fire-alarm and life-safety work additionally runs through the State Fire Marshal.

How is security and low-voltage work regulated in Mississippi?
Mississippi splits the work into two contractor classifications: an alarm/access/security class and a separate low-voltage communications class that explicitly covers closed-circuit video but excludes alarms. Commercial projects of $50,000 or more require a state contractor license. Local building departments handle permits; fire-alarm and life-safety work additionally runs through the State Fire Marshal.
Do I have to replace my doors?
Usually not. UniFi Access retrofits onto existing doors using electric strikes or maglocks, a reader, and a request-to-exit device. We assess each opening first.
What credentials can staff use?
NFC cards and fobs, Bluetooth and mobile credentials, Apple Wallet, and PIN codes on the touchscreen readers — you choose per door and per group.
Can I see who came and went?
Yes. Every unlock is logged with the credential, door, and timestamp, and you can schedule access by person, group, and time of day.
