Biometrics are not actually that expensive anymore. You can easily get face recognition, retina scanners, full palm scanner, voice recognition, the works.
Or armed robots? :) But at least a flashing red screen would be easy and cheap to implement, with a nice alarm inside the office too. That is not rocket science.

It wasn't a video - someone walked you around the facility: don't touch that. If someone else touches that, do this. etc. I think we were the only external customer in the building. Inconsistency in procedures translates to flexibility in pricing though. Not everyone wants to pay for armed guards and biometrics.
