You are mentioning magnetic locks on the doors. This is then a part for an access control policy based uppon Identity management for users who enter your company's location.
Usually these doors are prodiving data input to a printer or a server , or even both to have a proper record of who was in there, for how much time, etc.
Magnetic cards are re-programmed in firmware as to authenticate and authorize proper entry for your staff.
This is pretty much over what i understand from your post's title.
