Case Study: St. Eugene School achieves improved building security and simplified access management with Honeywell NetAXS-123

School Security: An Elementary Proposition. Milwaukee-Area School Tackles Access Control to Better Secure Multi-Use Facility

St. Eugene School, a 200-student elementary in Fox Point, WI that shares space with a Catholic parish and a funeral home, needed a cost‑effective way to replace an inadequate key system and control multiple shared entryways. The school selected Honeywell and its web-based NetAXS-123 access control system (with Ethernet Virtual Loop technology) to provide granular card-based access, centralized monitoring, and easier management.

Honeywell’s NetAXS-123 (installed by integrator Munger Technical Services) was hardwired to the school LAN and deployed on four doors initially—gym, church-to-school, shared parish hallway and the main entry—using EVL to simplify installation and automatic panel updates. The system now creates an electronic record for every entry, lets staff disable and reissue lost cards, eliminates paper sign‑in for after‑school pickup, and is scalable (planned expansion from four to nine doors), giving St. Eugene clear, auditable control over who enters the building.
