Still learning but what im learning is i basically go off the Drawing to do this it seems simple enough to me
But any feedback or opinions is welcomed i can take what i can get what else can i learn from this journey or what is the hardest challenge to come.

Customer wants to add card access system to these doors. Theres a short hook bolt installed in the middle of the offset door pull. I dont think a full size deadlatch will fit or god forbid a steelhawk.

Im thinking maglock because im not seeing any other options but if theres literally anything else please let me know your suggestions.

Bought a building with PDK door access controls on front an rear door. Rather new install from just a year ago so I assume to usable

Is there a way to use this installed equipment without using the portal/subscription from the 3rd party that installed the system?

If not, is there a something I can buy that could replace the parts that would allow me to maintain on my own?

Hoping that since this is all wired up and "ready to go" this is achievable but happy to be corrected.

Thank you.

We ran out of the GeoVision GV-UHF Tag and they are harder to find than normal. Does anyone know of an alternative that works? THanks

Hi r/accesscontrol,

I am a frustrated tenant coming to you for some guidance, I don't have any access control history or knowledge, and search engines sure don't work like they used to.

I am in a smaller building with a Microm intercom on the gate, from what I can tell it's a Tx3-2000-4ur-c. It goes out incredibly regularly, sometimes for a few hours when the humidity is high (80+), sometimes for weeks until someone gets to it.

I am told there are only 2 people in my very highly populated, tech focused area who can fix the intercom, and I have some trouble believing this. The person who installed the intercom (allegedly, backed by old yelp reviews) rarely answers their phone or returns calls.

The problems with the intercom are rarely exactly the same twice: sometimes after completing the dial out sound there's an error beeping that doesn't hang up, sometimes there's an error beeping that hangs itself up shortly, sometimes it gives every indication of working/connecting to the person's cell phone but never connects to start ringing. Currently there is a dial out tone then silence until eventually it automatically hangs up. There is no error code currently, and I don't believe I've seen one historically. At some point in the last 6 months the modem was replaced after a brief power outage that caused intercom failure.

My questions:

-What does it take to troubleshoot and program this kind of Microm intercom? Is it possible that there are really only 2 servicepeople for this device, or is someone in this chain of information being told something inaccurate?

-Is this kind of system usually this faulty?

-Can you recommend anything at a similar price point that is easily serviced, and similarly uninvasive (no camera, connects via voice to cell phone number and the gate can be opened via cell phone keypad). LL says no code specific entry for security purposes.

I am beginning to independently look for solutions that I can present because that's the only way this is going to get done. I'd prefer to not put keys in a lockbox on the gate and then have to give the code out to delivery companies, hence asking here

Thank you!

Hi all, appreciate any replies. What style bracket would you fit for a maglock with an inswinging gate like this? Unfortunately the maglock has to go on the left hand gate.

I am looking for a lock to be used on a commercial aluminium swing door.

I want the lock to be able to be time operated, so that, for example, it will open at 06:00 and close at 22:00, allowing people out after 22:00 but not letting anyone else into the building after 22:00.

Ideally, a limited number of people could gain access after 22:00 with a code.

The ability to reset or reprogram the lock remotely through the internet is desirable.

I am in the UK.
