Readers & Credentials

Readers and credentials are among the most popular access control solutions for commercial facilities. Readers are easy to install, maintain transactional logs, have simplistic style that complements or blends with décor, and can be scaled to match most security or budget needs. dormakaba offers a comprehensive line of readers & credentials through its RCI & Keyscan product brands. dormakaba's wide selection of premium contactless readers include proximity (125 kHz), smartcard (13.56 MHz), long-range ultra-high frequency (UHF), and Bluetooth low energy (BLE) solutions.
