Securing remote facilities presents a unique challenge. Utility sites, pump stations, substations, telecom shelters, and infrastructure yards often lack reliable power or network access. Most traditional access control systems are not designed to handle these conditions.
You need more than a padlock. You need accountability, control, and flexibility, without the infrastructure.
Why Traditional Systems Fall Short
Wired badge readers or electronic keypad systems assume a steady power source and network access. That may work at a building entrance, but not at a remote gate or isolated cabinet. Running power or data lines can cost thousands per site. Even battery-powered card readers still require network sync or frequent maintenance.
When infrastructure is limited, traditional systems become impractical, unreliable, and expensive.
CyberLock: Built for Remote Sites
TEC Solutions deploys CyberLock, a wireless access control system that works anywhere. The lock is powered by the CyberKey, not by electricity or Wi-Fi. Each CyberLock cylinder retrofits into your existing hardware and logs access attempts directly on the key itself.
With no wiring or external power required, you can secure remote facilities immediately, at a fraction of the cost.
How It Works
-
Install CyberLock Cylinders: Choose from 400+ lock designs to fit your gates, panels, enclosures, and doors. Locks store up to 6,000 access events.
-
Issue CyberKeys: Smart keys are programmed with user-specific access permissions and store up to 12,000 access events.
-
Collect Audit Logs: Keys upload access data to CyberAudit software via communicator devices.
-
Manage in CyberAudit Software: Admins control permissions, disable keys, and run audit reports, hosted on-premises or in the cloud.

Who Benefits from CyberLock’s Remote Access Control?
Organizations with facilities in rugged or disconnected areas:
-
Power and electric utilities
-
Water and wastewater systems
-
Railways and subways
-
Rural medical facilities
-
Telecom providers
-
Government infrastructure sites
New York City Transit uses CyberLock to secure more than 10,000 critical access points across the subway system, including locations that cannot support wired access control. CyberLock’s retrofit capability made that possible, without pulling new cable.
No Power? No Problem. No Wi-Fi? Still Works.
CyberLock is engineered to be offline. The key provides power to the lock. Access logs live on the key until they are uploaded to your system. That means you get a full audit trail and access control, without needing:
-
Constant internet access
-
Electrical outlets at the door
-
Time-consuming cabling or conduit runs
If you operate in a NERC CIP environment, this gives you a path to compliance without rebuilding your entire site infrastructure. Read how the Department of Energy safeguards our nation’s energy.
