How do we assess our security needs

And i’m working with a client who wants to upgrade their locking systems, but they’re uncertain about their specific security needs. How do you effectively assess what type of locking mechanisms will best integrate with their current security infrastructure? I believe a thorough audit is essential, but I’m curious about best practices in this area.
