Access control systems are part of the overall protection of objects. It is often the first system with which it is necessary to start the contact system; therefore, it is necessary to ensure its proper functioning. In the event of a malfunction, it can cause downtime in production, and it is triggered by a bad replacement of workers. Access control systems have their own specificities that need to be considered when designing security. Poor selection of access control devices can cause inefficient system functionality, resulting in downtime and loss. Based on experimental testing and related work in access control systems, this paper discusses the possibilities of testing the throughput of access control systems. The manuscript presents the design of a unique test device that can be used in the assessment of the reliability and throughput of access control systems. With the help of tests, we were able to determine the probability of downtime due to inappropriately set time intervals for changing employees on a work shift.
