Integrate access control and visitor management

Residential Security Handbook 2022: SMART Estate Living Residential Estate (Industry)

ZKTeco has developed products that provide residential estates with a platform to integrate access control devices with visitor management apps. The ZKTeco Estate Solution makes use of UHF readers, car tags, parking barriers, full height turnstiles with fingerprint, facial recognition and RFID access control systems and all these can be monitored on the ZKBioSecurity platform.

ZKTeco offers a range of UHF readers that are waterproof and suitable for use in a wide range of RFID applications, such as transport management, vehicle management, car parking, production process control and access control. The company’s parking barriers prevent entry of unauthorised vehicles to restricted areas. The biometric full height turnstiles can be integrated with either fingerprint or facial recognition and come as semi- automatic mechanisms with SUS304 stainless steel cabinets and ensures that pedestrians that enter the estate are also are recorded.

The new ZKTeco visitor management app not only enhances efficiency and productivity, but it also ensures that visitors be registered within seconds, with all necessary information captured. The app enables authorised personnel to preregister visitors, thus streamlining the waiting process. This app also ensures the handling of visitors is in accordance with estate policies.

Visitor approval is sent to the authorised personnel via the app and the proper access rights can be assigned. All information is stored in a secure database and can be conveniently retrieved for repeat visits. Additional information can be gathered with visitor details to simplify future transactions. This visitor management app also allows the user to track visitors, assets and deliveries as they enter and exit the premises. It helps improve the efficiency, productivity, security and visitor service of any residential estate.

The ZKTeco Estate Solution is a comprehensive security package that can complement any residential estate and can be customised to fit the specifications of an estate.
