Organizations across Kenya regularly send Boardtac Solutions requests to design, supply, install, configure, and commission professional biometric access-control systems for offices, hospitals, schools, warehouses, residential apartments, financial institutions, government facilities, data centres, and other secure environments.

A typical requirement may include enterprise access-control software, biometric terminals, slave readers, electromagnetic locks, emergency exit accessories, dedicated power supplies, backup batteries, network cabling, installation materials, user training, testing, and commissioning.

Some of the common components included in these requests are:

• ZKTeco ZKBio CVAccess Professional Software.
• ZKTeco F22 Advanced Master Biometric Terminal.
• ZKTeco FR1200 Slave Fingerprint Reader.
• Electromagnetic Lock, depending on the door and security requirements.
• Magnetic Lock Mounting Bracket.
• Override Key Switch.
• Door Closer.
• Emergency Break Glass Unit.
• Exit Push Button.
• Dedicated Access-Control Power Supply Unit with Backup Battery.
• Network Cabling, Trunking, and Installation Accessories.
• Installation, Testing, User Training, Documentation, and Commissioning.

While many organizations initially focus on the fingerprint reader or biometric terminal, the software is the central management platform behind a professionally designed access-control system. It helps administrators manage users, doors, permissions, schedules, access events, attendance records, and security information from one centralized platform.

In this guide, Boardtac Solutions explains how ZKTeco ZKBio CVAccess Professional Software works, why centralized biometric access control is important, and how compatible devices such as the ZKTeco F22 and ZKTeco FR1200 can be integrated into a secure, scalable, and professionally managed access-control solution.

What Is ZKTeco ZKBio CVAccess Professional Software?

ZKTeco ZKBio CVAccess Professional is a web-based access-control and time-attendance management platform designed to centrally manage compatible biometric devices, users, access permissions, attendance records, door events, alarms, and security reports.

Instead of programming every biometric device separately, authorized administrators can manage the system through a centralized software platform.

This can make it easier for an organization to manage multiple users, doors, departments, and locations while maintaining consistent access rules and records.

Depending on the selected license and system configuration, the platform may support multiple doors, personnel records, attendance devices, video channels, and client workstations.

The actual capacity of every installation should be confirmed against the specific software license and the organization’s requirements before deployment.

Why Access-Control Software Matters

Many buyers focus mainly on the biometric terminal installed at the door. However, the management software is responsible for organizing and controlling how the overall system operates.

A professionally configured access-control platform can help an organization manage:

• Who is authorized to access a particular door.
• Which doors each employee, visitor, contractor, or authorized user can access.
• The times and days when access is permitted.
• Department-specific access permissions.
• Restricted areas.
• Access schedules and holiday rules.
• Successful and unsuccessful access attempts.
• Door status and security events.
• Attendance information.
• Access logs and audit trails.

Without centralized management software, even an advanced biometric terminal may operate mainly as an individual or standalone device. Software provides the structure needed to manage access permissions more efficiently across a larger organization.

Key Features of ZKTeco ZKBio CVAccess Professional

Centralized User Management

Administrators can create and manage personnel records through a centralized platform rather than handling every user independently at every access point.

Where supported by the system configuration, user information can be synchronized with compatible biometric devices.

This can reduce administrative work, improve consistency, and make it easier to manage staff changes.

Web-Based Management

Because the platform is web-based, authorized administrators can access the management interface through a compatible browser on an approved workstation or network environment.

This can be useful for organizations with several departments, multiple access points, or more than one operational location.

Appropriate user permissions, network security, and system administration procedures should be applied to protect access to the management platform.

Door Access Management

Administrators can configure access rules based on the organization’s security requirements.

These may include:

• Assigning authorized users to specific doors.
• Restricting access to sensitive departments.
• Creating access schedules.
• Applying working-hour rules.
• Configuring holiday access arrangements.
• Managing door permissions.
• Monitoring access events.
• Reviewing access records.

The available functions depend on the software edition, license, compatible devices, and system configuration.

Time and Attendance Management

In suitable deployments, ZKBio CVAccess Professional can support time and attendance management alongside access control.

The system may be configured to record and organize information such as:

• Check-in times.
• Check-out times.
• Late arrivals.
• Overtime.
• Shift schedules.
• Attendance records.
• Attendance reports.

This can help organizations reduce dependence on manual attendance registers and improve the availability of digital attendance information.

Video Integration

Professional access-control systems may be integrated with compatible video surveillance systems where the required software license, devices, and configuration support this function.

Video integration can help security personnel review relevant footage when investigating access events or security incidents.

This can provide additional context when reviewing:

• Access attempts.
• Unauthorized entry concerns.
• Door alarms.
• Security incidents.
• Events requiring further investigation.

Event Logs and Audit Trails

A professionally managed access-control system can maintain records of important access and door events.

Depending on the system configuration, recorded events may include:

• Successful access.
• Failed authentication.
• Unauthorized access attempts.
• Forced-door events.
• Door-held-open events.
• Emergency door release events.
• Device or communication events.
• Other configured alarms.

These records can assist with security reviews, investigations, operational accountability, and internal reporting.

A Typical Professional Biometric Access-Control Configuration

The correct system design depends on the door type, security level, number of users, building layout, operational workflow, and future expansion requirements.

For a secure single-door application, a professionally designed solution may include the following components.

ZKTeco F22 Advanced Master Biometric Terminal

The ZKTeco F22 can be used as the main biometric access terminal in a compatible access-control installation.

Depending on the configuration, the terminal may support authentication methods such as:

• Fingerprint verification.
• RFID card verification.
• Password verification.
• Network communication.

The terminal can be configured according to the organization’s approved access rules and security requirements.

ZKTeco FR1200 Slave Fingerprint Reader

The ZKTeco FR1200 is a slave fingerprint reader designed for use with compatible ZKTeco access-control equipment.

It can be installed on the opposite side of a controlled entrance where biometric verification is required on both entry and exit.

This type of configuration may be suitable for areas where the organization requires stronger accountability for movement in and out of a restricted space.

Examples may include:

• Server rooms.
• Data centres.
• Research laboratories.
• Pharmaceutical facilities.
• Financial institutions.
• Secure storage areas.
• Restricted corporate departments.

The final design should also consider emergency escape requirements and applicable building and safety regulations.

Electromagnetic Lock

An electromagnetic lock, commonly known as a magnetic lock or maglock, secures a door using electromagnetic holding force.

When the access-control system grants access, the lock is released according to the configured system design, allowing the authorized user to open the door.

When the door closes, the magnetic lock can secure the entrance again.

The required lock size and holding force should be selected based on the door type, door frame, installation method, and security requirements.

Magnetic Lock Mounting Bracket

A suitable mounting bracket helps ensure that the magnetic lock is installed securely and aligned correctly with the door.

Proper installation can support:

• Correct lock alignment.
• Secure mounting.
• Reliable operation.
• Reduced mechanical stress.
• Improved long-term performance.

The correct bracket type depends on the door and frame design.

Door Closer

A door closer helps return the door to its closed position after it has been opened.

This is important because an access-control lock cannot secure a door that remains open.

A properly selected and adjusted door closer can support reliable door operation and reduce unnecessary strain on the locking system.

Emergency Break Glass Unit

An emergency break-glass unit provides a manual emergency release method for an access-controlled door.

In an appropriate system design, activating the emergency release can interrupt the lock circuit and allow the door to be opened.

Resettable emergency units can reduce replacement requirements after authorized testing or activation.

Emergency release arrangements must be designed and installed in accordance with the applicable safety requirements for the building and door.

Exit Push Button

An exit push button provides a simple method for leaving a controlled area where biometric verification is not required on exit.

The required exit method should be determined during system design based on the organization’s security procedures, operational requirements, and emergency escape considerations.

Override Key Switch

An override key switch may provide authorized personnel with a manual control option during approved maintenance, operational procedures, or specific emergency arrangements.

The function of the key switch should be clearly defined during system design and communicated to authorized users.

Dedicated Access-Control Power Supply

Professional access-control installations should use a suitable dedicated power supply designed for the connected equipment and system requirements.

A correctly selected power supply can help:

• Provide stable power.
• Support connected access-control equipment.
• Accommodate the required backup battery.
• Improve cable and power management.
• Support a cleaner and more organized installation.

The power supply capacity should be calculated according to the combined requirements of the biometric devices, locking equipment, accessories, and backup requirements.

Backup Battery

A backup battery can help maintain operation during a mains power interruption, depending on the system load, battery condition, and expected backup duration.

The actual backup time is affected by the number of connected devices, lock type, power consumption, battery capacity, and condition of the battery.

Backup performance should therefore be assessed as part of the system design rather than assumed.

Why Professional Installation Matters

Even high-quality biometric equipment may perform poorly if the system is incorrectly designed, wired, configured, or installed.

Professional biometric access-control installation involves more than mounting a fingerprint reader on a wall.

A complete installation may include:

• Site assessment.
• Door and frame evaluation.
• Access-control system design.
• Equipment selection.
• Cable routing.
• Trunking and cable management.
• Lock and bracket alignment.
• Power-supply installation.
• Backup-battery connection.
• Biometric device installation.
• Network integration.
• Software installation and configuration.
• User enrollment.
• Access-permission configuration.
• Security and operational testing.
• User training.
• Technical documentation.
• Final testing and commissioning.

Every component should be tested as part of the complete system before handover.

Security and convenience have become essential for both homes and businesses in Kenya. Many property owners are now moving away from traditional manual gates and investing in sliding gates and automatic gate systems that offer better security, easier access, and a more modern appearance.

At Boardtac Solutions, we provide professional sliding gate installation, automatic gate automation, maintenance, repair, and servicing services for residential, commercial, and industrial properties across Kenya. Whether you are building a new property or upgrading an existing gate, our team delivers practical solutions designed to improve access control and daily convenience.

Why automatic gates are becoming popular in Kenya.

Opening and closing a gate manually may seem like a small task until you have to do it every day, in the rain, late at night, or when arriving home tired after a long day. For businesses, manually operated gates can also slow down movement and create unnecessary security gaps.

Automatic gates solve these problems by allowing users to open and close gates using remote controls, mobile phones, access cards, PIN codes, or biometric systems. This means you can access your property without leaving your vehicle, which improves both safety and comfort.

For apartment buildings, offices, schools, and commercial properties, automated gates also help control vehicle movement and reduce unauthorized access.

Boardtac Solutions installs durable sliding gates suitable for different types of properties. We work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, schools, offices, warehouses, hospitals, and industrial sites looking for reliable gate solutions.

Our sliding gates are designed with both security and functionality in mind. We consider the available space, traffic flow, property layout, and security needs before recommending the most suitable gate design.

Whether you need a residential gate for your home or a heavy-duty sliding gate for a commercial facility, we ensure proper fabrication, alignment, and installation for smooth operation.

Automatic gate motor installation.

A gate automation system is only as good as the motor behind it. Choosing the wrong motor can lead to breakdowns, slow operation, or expensive repairs.

Boardtac Solutions installs high-quality automatic gate motors for sliding and swing gates. We assess the weight of your gate, frequency of use, and security requirements before recommending the right motor.

Our gate automation systems include useful features such as obstacle detection, remote operation, soft opening and closing, manual override, and battery backup options for continued access during power outages.

This ensures your gate remains functional, secure, and easy to use at all times.

Gate automation for existing manual gates.

If you already have a manual gate, you may not need to replace the entire structure.

In many cases, we can automate your existing gate by installing a suitable motor, control board, sensors, and access devices. This is a cost-effective way of upgrading your property without the expense of constructing a completely new gate.

Many homeowners and businesses in Kenya are choosing this option to improve convenience while keeping their existing gate design.

Lost laptops, misplaced medical equipment, stolen office furniture, and hours wasted on manual stock-taking are not just minor inconveniences; they are financial leaks that drain profitability and operational efficiency. If you can’t see your assets in real-time, you simply cannot control them.

This is where BoardTac Solutions steps in. We are bridging the gap between manual guesswork and intelligent automation with our Fully Integrated RFID Asset Tracking System.

What is RFID Asset Tracking? (And Why is it a Game-Changer?)

Imagine a system where you don’t have to scan a barcode or type a serial number to know where an item is. Instead, your assets “announce” their location the moment they move.

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. Unlike traditional barcodes, which require a direct line of sight and manual labor to scan, RFID works at a distance, through packaging, and without human intervention.

In Kenya’s fast-moving business environment, this technology shifts asset management from being a reactive chore to a proactive, real-time strategy.

The Core Components: How the System Comes Together

BoardTac Solutions doesn’t just sell hardware; we provide a complete ecosystem. Here is how the system works step-by-step:

1. Asset Registration & Tagging

Every asset—from a high-end laptop to a heavy-duty generator—is recorded in the system. A unique RFID tag is assigned and attached. Tags come in various forms:

• Sticker Tags: Ideal for electronics, books, and files.
• Hard Tags: Rugged and durable for machinery, furniture, and outdoor equipment.
• Key Fobs: For vehicles and high-value portable items.

2. Strategic Reader Deployment

We install fixed RFID readers at critical control points: entry and exit doors, server rooms, warehouse gateways, and office corridors. These readers create invisible “monitoring zones.”

3. Automatic Detection & Data Capture

When a tagged asset passes through a reader’s range, the system automatically captures:

• Unique ID (What is it?)
• Time Stamp (When did it move?)
• Location (Where is it now?)

This happens instantly—no scanning, no logging, no human error.

4. Real-Time Software Monitoring

All captured data flows to a centralized, cloud-based or on-premise dashboard. Authorized personnel can view the entire asset inventory from a single screen, checking the current location and movement history of any item in seconds.

5. Intelligent Alerts & Security

The system acts as a silent guard. You can configure alerts to trigger:

• When an asset leaves a designated area without authorization.
• If equipment is moved outside of working hours.
• When a tag is tampered with or removed.

These alerts are delivered instantly via SMS, email, or on-screen notifications, allowing security teams to respond immediately.

6. Reporting & Auditing

End-of-year audits no longer require crawling under desks. With one click, you can generate detailed reports on asset movement logs, allocation history, inventory status, and loss reports, making the audit process 90% faster and 100% more accurate.

The Kenyan Context: Where This System Matters Most

BoardTac Solutions has designed this system to address the unique challenges faced by organizations across Kenya:

• Offices & Corporate HQs: Eliminate the chaos of misplaced projectors, laptops, and removable hard drives. Improve accountability among staff.
• Warehouses & Logistics: Prevent inventory shrinkage and locate pallets instantly within massive storage yards without manual searching.
• Hospitals & Clinics: Track life-saving equipment like defibrillators, infusion pumps, and oxygen cylinders to ensure they are available exactly when and where they are needed.
• Schools & Universities: Secure expensive lab equipment, library books, and IT assets that are often moved between classrooms and departments.
• Hotels & Hospitality: Manage linen, electronics, and movable furniture efficiently across large properties.
• Government Institutions: Ensure compliance with asset auditing standards and protect public resources from theft or misplacement.

Key Benefits: Beyond Just Knowing Where Things Are

Implementing the BoardTac RFID system does more than just locate assets; it transforms operations:

• Improved Asset Security: Theft is dramatically reduced as items cannot be removed from premises without the system triggering an alert.
• Reduced Losses: You stop losing money to assets that “disappear” from the books but are never found.
• Real-Time Visibility: Know exactly what you have and where it is, 24/7, without walking around with a clipboard.
• Faster Audits: Reduce audit preparation from weeks to hours, ensuring compliance and accuracy.
• Increased Accountability: When assets are tied to specific users or zones, employees become more responsible for the equipment they use.
• Reduced Manual Work: Free up your IT and admin staff from the tedious task of manual inventory tracking so they can focus on core business goals.

Why Choose BoardTac Solutions?

The Kenyan market is full of hardware vendors, but BoardTac Solutions offers something different: a complete, end-to-end partnership.

We don’t just sell you readers and tags; we provide a solution that works.

1. Comprehensive Site Survey: We analyze your premises, asset types, movement patterns, and security risks.

Boardtac Solutions — Securing Your World with Global Standards.

The post Boardtac Solutions local and international recognition appeared first on Boardtac Solutions | CCTV & Security Systems Kenya.

In the modern Nairobi workplace, efficiency and security are two sides of the same coin. For business owners and HR managers, the days of messy paper registers and manual payroll calculations are fading fast. However, many organizations still operate with a disconnect: the system that tracks employee hours is separate from the system that secures the office door. This creates data silos, security gaps, and administrative headaches.

The solution lies in a powerful, integrated approach: biometric systems that seamlessly connect with your HR platforms and physically control access to your premises. Imagine a system where an employee’s fingerprint not only grants them entry through a secure glass door but also automatically clocks them in for their shift, with that data instantly available for payroll processing.

At Boardtac Solutions, we design, supply, and install these exact systems across Nairobi and Kenya. This guide explores how this technology works, the robust ZKTeco hardware we deploy, the powerful time attendance software that drives it, and how we tailor solutions for glass, metal, and wooden doors.

Why Integration Matters: Connecting HR and Physical Security

The core value of a modern biometric system is its ability to act as a bridge between your physical premises and your digital HR infrastructure .

Traditionally, these have been two separate worlds:

• Access Control: A device on the wall that unlocks a door for authorized personnel.
• Time & Attendance: A device (or app) where employees punch in and out.

When you integrate these functions using a centralized platform, you unlock significant benefits:

1. Single Point of Truth: The same biometric verification event serves two purposes. When an employee scans their fingerprint to enter the office at 8:00 AM, that timestamp is instantly logged as their clock-in time. There is no second device, and no duplication of effort.
2. Automated Payroll Processing: The data captured by the biometric reader is fed directly into your time attendance software. This software can calculate total hours, overtime, late arrivals, and early departures, and generate reports that can be exported in Excel or CSV format for direct import into payroll systems like QuickBooks, Sage, or ERPNext . This eliminates manual data entry errors and “buddy punching.”
3. Enhanced Security Posture: The same device that manages employee time also controls who can enter specific areas. You can restrict access to the server room, finance department, or R&D lab to only authorized personnel, creating a layered security environment.

This integrated ecosystem relies on two main components: the hardware (the biometric devices and door locks) and the software (the central management platform).

The Hardware Powerhouse: Exploring ZKTeco Biometric Devices

When it comes to reliable, feature-rich biometric solutions in Kenya, ZKTeco stands as a global leader and a brand we trust at Boardtac Solutions . Their range of devices caters to every need, from small offices to large industrial complexes. Here are some of the key models we install.

For High-Security and High-Traffic Areas: ZKTeco MultiBio Series

For environments that demand the highest level of accuracy and speed, the MultiBio series offers “multi-biometric” authentication. This means the device uses a combination of methods to verify identity.

• ZKTeco MULTIBIO 700: This terminal is a powerhouse for face and fingerprint verification. It utilizes ZKTeco’s advanced ZKFACE 7.0 algorithm, featuring a high-resolution infrared camera and a professional color dual-camera setup . This allows for quick and accurate verification even in challenging lighting conditions, with an impressively low false acceptance rate .
  • Capacity: Can store up to 1,500 face templates and 2,000 fingerprint templates, making it ideal for medium to large businesses .
  • Authentication: Supports face, fingerprint, password, and optional RFID card, as well as combination modes for heightened security .
  • Connectivity: Equipped with TCP/IP, RS485, and USB-host for flexible integration .
• ZKTeco MB2000: Designed for versatility and durability, the MB2000 is a multi-biometric system suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, capable of withstanding harsh weather conditions . Its key strength lies in its massive storage capacity and simultaneous processing power.
  • Massive Capacity: It can hold up to 20,000 fingerprints and 100,000 facial templates, making it perfect for large enterprises or institutions with hundreds or thousands of users .
  • Door Compatibility: Crucially, the MB2000 is explicitly compatible with a wide variety of door types, including glass doors, wooden doors, and metal doors .
  • Integration: It can be connected to external devices like turnstiles or gates and linked to other security systems such as CCTV for a comprehensive security setup .

The New Standard: AI-Powered Facial Recognition

As hygiene and speed become increasingly important, touchless solutions are becoming the new standard. ZKTeco’s SenseFace series represents the cutting edge of this technology.

• ZKTeco SenseFace 3 Series: This terminal combines intelligent facial authentication with “in-glass” fingerprint technology, offering a true multi-modal solution . It is powered by an ultimate anti-spoofing algorithm that protects against fake photos and videos, ensuring that a photo of an authorized person cannot be used to gain entry .
  • All-Weather Performance: With an IP65 rating, it is dust-proof and water-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor installation .
  • Video Intercom: A standout feature is its support for video intercom capabilities via SIP Protocol, allowing it to function as a communication hub at entry points .
  • Capacity: Stores up to 6,000 facial templates and 8,000 fingerprints, with a massive 200,000 transaction log capacity .

Cost-Effective and Reliable: ZKTeco F Series and MA Series

For smaller businesses or those looking for a dependable, budget-friendly option, the F Series and MA Series are excellent choices.

• ZKTeco F18: A classic and popular biometric fingerprint reader designed for both access control and time attendance . It features a high-performance optical sensor and can operate as a standalone device or be integrated into a larger network . Its compact, tamper-proof design includes a TFT-LCD color screen and keypad for easy user interaction .
• ZKTeco ZK MA500: This model is specifically designed for efficient access control and accurate time attendance . It offers a balance of features and affordability.
  • Core Specs: Stores up to 3,000 fingerprints and 10,000 RFID cards, with a transaction log of 100,000 entries .
  • Speed: Verification takes less than 1 second, minimizing wait times at entry points .
  • Access Control: Features a built-in relay for direct control of door locks, making installation straightforward .

The Central Nervous System: Powerful Time Attendance Software

The hardware at your door is only as powerful as the software that manages it. To centralize data, manage employees, and generate payroll reports, you need a robust backend. ZKTeco’s solution for this is a powerful, web-based platform. At Boardtac Solutions, we specialize in installing and configuring this software to meet the unique needs of Kenyan businesses .

This time attendance software is a comprehensive workforce management platform that transforms raw clock-in data into actionable business intelligence .

Key Features of the Software

• Centralized, Web-Based Management: The software is web-based, meaning HR managers can access the system from any browser, anywhere . This is perfect for businesses with multiple branches in Nairobi, Mombasa, or Kisumu, as all attendance data from devices across all locations is synchronized in real-time to a single central server .
• Advanced Scheduling & Shift Management: Managing a complex workforce is simplified. The software allows you to create and assign unlimited shifts, rosters, and flexible schedules . It handles shift rotations, night shifts, and split shifts with ease, making it ideal for factories, hospitals, and hotels.
• Seamless Payroll Integration: This is the feature that saves HR teams hours of work. The software automatically tracks overtime, late-ins, early-outs, and absences . It then generates detailed, payroll-ready reports that can be exported in multiple formats (Excel, CSV, PDF) for direct integration with your payroll system, ensuring employees are paid accurately for the time they worked .
• Comprehensive Leave & Holiday Management: The platform goes beyond just clocking in and out. It allows for the digital management of employee leave requests, public holidays, and other off days, all within the same system where attendance is tracked . This eliminates the need for separate spreadsheets and manual calculations.
• Customizable Reporting & Alerts: Managers can use custom reports and visual dashboards to gain deep insights into workforce patterns . The system can also be configured to send automated alerts for anomalies like unscheduled absences or repeated late arrivals, enabling proactive management.
• Mobile App Support: For managers and HR teams on the go, a mobile app (available for Android and iOS) provides real-time access to attendance data, allowing for monitoring and decision-making from anywhere .

By integrating this time attendance software with your ZKTeco devices, you create a closed-loop system where physical identity verification directly powers your digital HR processes.

Securing the Perimeter: Installation on Glass, Metal, and Wooden Doors

A biometric system is only as effective as the physical barrier it controls. At Boardtac Solutions, we understand that Nairobi’s buildings feature a diverse range of door types. Our expertise lies in integrating the same advanced biometric reader with the appropriate locking mechanism for any door material .

Here’s how we approach installations for different door types:

1. Biometric Systems on Glass Doors

Glass doors offer a modern, aesthetic appeal for office lobbies and storefronts. Securing them requires a specialized approach.

• The Hardware: We typically use electric magnetic locks (maglocks) . These locks have two main parts: an electromagnet mounted on the door frame and an armature plate mounted on the glass door itself.
• How It Works: When power is applied, the magnet exerts a powerful holding force (e.g., 180kg) on the armature plate, securing the door . When a user is verified on the biometric reader (like the sleek SenseFace 3), the power to the magnet is cut, releasing the door for entry.
• The Installation: Installing on glass requires precision. We use special brackets and spacers to mount the magnetic lock and the armature plate securely onto the glass without compromising its integrity.

2. Biometric Systems on Metal Doors

Metal doors are common in factories, server rooms, and back entrances, prized for their strength.

• The Hardware: For metal doors, electric strikes are often the best solution. An electric strike replaces the standard metal strike plate (the part of the lock that the latch or bolt goes into).
• How It Works: The biometric reader is connected to the electric strike. Upon verification, the reader sends a signal that activates the strike, allowing the door latch to be pulled back and the door to be opened.
• The Installation: Metal doors provide a solid surface for mounting both the biometric reader and the electric strike, ensuring a robust and secure installation. We ensure proper grounding and surge protection to safeguard the electronics.

3. Biometric Systems on Wooden Doors

Wooden doors are ubiquitous in offices and private rooms, offering a classic and warm look.

• The Hardware: Similar to metal doors, electric strikes are a popular choice for wooden doors. Alternatively, for a more integrated look, we can install an electric mortise lock, which fits inside a cavity (mortise) cut into the door itself.
• How It Works: As with metal doors, the biometric reader controls the locking mechanism. When a valid fingerprint, face, or card is presented, the electric strike or lock is disengaged, allowing entry.
• The Installation: Installing on wood requires careful carpentry to ensure the lock or strike fits perfectly and the door continues to function smoothly. Our technicians have the expertise to perform this precision work without damaging the door’s finish.

The Common Denominator: The Biometric Reader and Power Supply

Regardless of the door type, the setup follows a similar logic. The ZKTeco biometric reader (e.g., MA500, MB2000) is mounted on the wall beside the door. It is connected to a 12V DC power supply and to the chosen locking mechanism via its built-in relay . When a user successfully authenticates, the reader triggers the relay, which momentarily cuts or reverses power to the lock, granting access. The same event is also recorded in the device’s memory and sent to the central time attendance software as a clock-in/out record.
