A wave should not bypass authorization.
At a controlled entrance, the request to open and permission to enter are separate decisions. The access-control system, lock release and operator must interact according to a documented project sequence. Public hours, credentialed entry, request-to-exit behaviour and building emergency arrangements can create different operating conditions.
Automatic Door & Access Control Integration: at a glance
- A wave is an activation request, not an access credential.
- Separate public entry from after-hours access requirements.
- Agree interface ownership with the security provider.
Know what the work involves.
What we assess
- Access-control platform and responsible service provider
- Reader, lock release and operator interfaces
- Public-hours and after-hours operating modes
- Egress, fire-alarm interfaces and power-loss requirements
Scope & coordination
Coordinate the integration with the building’s security contractor and electrical team. Define who is responsible for programming, interface wiring and acceptance testing. The scope should describe both authorized entry and exit behaviour, including exceptions relevant to the building.
What to share with us
Provide system names and the contact role responsible for access control. Describe desired operating hours and user flows. Do not submit passwords, credential lists, access codes or security drawings through the enquiry form.
Does a wave sensor replace a card reader?
A wave sensor is an activation device, not an identity check. Access permission remains with the specified access-control arrangement.
Permission and operation are separate
Lock release and operator activation must follow the intended access rules. A wave is not an identity check.
