An employee leaves the company. HR processes the offboarding. Their access fob is deactivated. Three months later they're still driving into the car park — because nobody updated the separate parking management system. This isn't a hypothetical. It's what routinely happens when building access and parking are managed independently.

Facilities managers typically juggle five to eight software systems. Each has its own logic, its own interface and its own admin. That's already a burden in itself — but the real danger lies in the connections that don't exist.
Access control (who can enter the building?) and parking management (who can use the car park?) are almost always managed by different people, at different times, triggered by different events. A new employee is registered in the access system. Whether they also get a parking space depends on whether someone remembers to sort it out in a separate system.
On departure the reverse applies: access gets revoked via HR offboarding, but the car park has no offboarding trigger. Result: former employees with ongoing parking access. That's a security risk and an administrative failure — and it's entirely preventable.
An integrated system uses one data source for both access layers. In practice: Paxton Net2 or Paxton10 as the primary system for building access, connected to the Revtek parking system via the Paxton API.
When an employee is created in Paxton, their plate is automatically synchronised to the parking whitelist. When their Paxton profile is deactivated, their plate automatically disappears from parking access. No manual action, no dependence on a facilities manager who happens to think of two systems at once.
Visitors aren't in Paxton — they're inherently temporary. For visitors, access and parking registration work through a separate channel: WhatsApp registration on arrival, or an invitation sent in advance by a staff member or receptionist.
That visitor process is deliberately decoupled from the employee system. It doesn't need to go through Paxton — it's brief and specific, and its log is separately visible. More on how visitor management works on the office page.
An additional benefit of integration: reporting. When access and parking are tracked separately, it's almost impossible to get a complete picture of who was on site when.
With an integrated system that becomes possible: when did employee X park their car, when did they enter the building, when did they leave? That information is available in the dashboard, exportable as CSV and searchable by period. Not for surveillance, but for incident reporting, occupancy analysis and the occasional HR-related query.
Paxton is the most common choice in mid-sized office environments, but not the only one. Salto KS is a comparable cloud-based access control system increasingly used in co-working spaces and flexible office concepts. The Revtek integration with Salto KS works in a similar way to the Paxton integration.
