THE BUYING GUIDE

Start with the door. Plan the whole workflow.

Access control and time attendance can share devices, but they solve different tasks. Define who may enter each area, which credentials will be used and how records need to be managed. Then check the terminal, controller, reader and software combination against the door hardware and operational requirements.

Start with the application.

Describe the job, the installation environment and the equipment already on site. Compare the exact model specifications before choosing; a collection name alone does not establish compatibility or included features.

Four checks before you choose.

Start with the details that affect your installation.

01 / CREDENTIALS

Users & identification

Choose the credential types actually supported by the device and check user and record capacities.

02 / DOORS

Controllers & interfaces

Confirm door count, reader interfaces and the exact compatible lock and exit-device arrangement.

03 / WORKFLOW

Access & attendance records

Check the required schedules, reports, enrolment process and software support separately.

04 / SITE

Power, network & installation

Plan supported power supplies, cabling and mounting. Have the complete door arrangement reviewed for the site requirements.
