The NOCO Genius Smart Battery Charger # 329-GENIUS5 is a great choice to keep your battery topped off in case of a power outage, that way you can still use your Access Control System. This is designed for 6V and 12V batteries with up to 120 amp-hours.
Please note that this charges batteries by being plugged into a 120V outlet so in the event your power goes out this won't be charging your battery anymore and you'll have only so long before your battery is depleted (look at the amp hour rating for that time-frame).
If you want a setup that keeps your battery banked topped off even with the power out then you need enough battery power, some solar panels, and some sun. This side of things can get pricey pretty fast so just let me know if you end up needing to go this route and I'd be more than happy to help out!
