Door vs. Zone
Image - TBD
The Door occupies a physical space, and its border areas are called Zones. When applying
privileges to a Door you’re granting access to a Zone.
Upon installation, Intelli-M creates two default Zones: Inside and Outside. In general, they
represent the inside of your building or ofce and the outside of your building or ofce.
Inside the building you may want secure interior doors . Each secured door also borders two
Zones: the interior of the oor/building and the space you wish to secure. You may re-use the
Inside Zone for the unsecured side of the door and create a new Zone, (e.g. Dental Records
Room) to serve as the name of the secured space. When conguring access privileges, you
will grant access to the Dental Records Room Zone, not the Door that borders it.
You can re-use Zones in more than one way.
1 One way is to re-use the Inside Zone because it represents the same physical space as
your perimeter doors (see example above).
2 Another opportunity to re-use a Zone name is when the same people will always have
identical access privileges to multiple areas. For example, if a dentist ofce has three
patient rooms and the same people always have identical access to these rooms, you
can create a single Zone (e.g. Patient Rooms) to represent this entire space.
