An effective access control solution

Residential Security Handbook 2021: Secure Living Residential Estate (Industry)

Effective residential estate security starts with an effective access control solution. Implementing a boom-controlled gate with added access control devices ensures that access is restricted to non-residents and other visitors.

For an effective, reliable and efficient access control solution for a residential estate, the BG1000 Series barrier gates integrated with a 5 or 10 Series UHF reader from ZKTeco may be the solution.

The UHF 5 series and UHF 10 Series readers are ZKteco’s latest generation of UHF RFID products. When integrated with a BG1000 Series barrier gate, these UHF card readers ensure your entrance control solution keeps working reliably as it operates with a low working current and temperature. It is also enclosed in a waterproof outer shell, meaning it can take whatever Mother Nature throws its way. The specifications of various options follow below.
