Residential
A very typical every-day use for Access Control is for example where a number of tenants within a block of flats use a common entrance. Similarly, any visitors wishing to gain access would use the same entrance.
Solution
A Video Door Entry System with Proximity Reader. In use
The user arrives at the locked entrance door, an Electronic Token is presented to the reader for validation. Validation is accepted, the electric lock releases for a predetermined period of time (typically 5-10 seconds) allowing access. Where a visitor arrives a the locked door, they would call the appropriate flat from the Door Station, the occupant of the flat called would verify the visitor from the Video Station within their flat from where access can be granted, simply push a button to release the access door. |
