Frequently asked questions
Can I revoke a lost card instantly?
Yes — a lost or stolen card is disabled instantly in the software and you can issue a replacement in seconds, so a missing card never leaves your premises exposed.
Does it work with turnstiles and barriers?
Yes — card and RFID readers integrate with turnstiles, speed gates, boom barriers and electric locks, so one credential controls doors, gates and vehicle access.
Can I combine cards with biometrics?
Yes — card access can be combined with biometric or PIN verification for higher-security doors (two-factor), all on one platform. See our Biometric Access Control page.
Can access control integrate with our CCTV?
Yes — access control and CCTV run from one platform, with door events linked to footage, so you can see exactly who opened which door and when, from a single dashboard.
Biometric or card — which is better?
Face/fingerprint suit high-security or hands-busy areas; cards suit large user bases. We often combine both.
Does it track attendance?
Yes — the system records attendance and exports to your payroll or HR software (or via reports), giving you accurate, tamper-resistant timesheets per employee.
