What Accesor does
Accesor Aplicaciones y Servicios, S.A. is a Barcelona-headquartered Spanish private limited company founded in 2003 that designs, supplies, and integrates physical access control systems for both pedestrian and vehicular flow. The portfolio spans motorized tripod turnstiles (BASTION-ACR, GALAXY-ACR), swing gates and high-security cylinder gates, automatic barriers, fixed and retractable bollards with K4/K8/K12/M50 crash-test certifications, license plate recognition cameras (ANPRZERO-ACR, CLPRV12-ACR), biometric and facial readers (FTR-ACR), electric and electromagnetic locks, keypads, vehicle detectors, and capacity-control systems. All hardware is unified through the proprietary Amadeus 5 and Amadeus 8 software platforms, which provide credentialing, visitor management, presence control, CCTV integration, elevator control, and parking modules.
The company's commercial model combines direct enterprise sales with a primary channel of engineering firms and security installers who specify and deploy Accesor products in customer projects; Accesor supports this channel with pre-sale technical consulting, product documentation, installation manuals, and post-sale maintenance contracts. Revenue is generated from hardware sales, one-time software licensing of Amadeus modules, and professional services, with quote-based pricing disclosed only on direct request. It serves 14 vertical segments including commerce/retail, banking, healthcare, sports, government, transportation, education, prisons, museums, parking, and HORECA, with named customers such as Banc de Sabadell, Osborne Group, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, ABACUS, and Centro Penitenciario La Model Barcelona. Geographic footprint is centered on Spain (Barcelona HQ, Madrid regional office) with international outreach through trade shows including IBERGEX in Mexico and Mining & Minerals Hall in Seville.
