Biometric Door Access Systems

What are Biometric Door Systems and how do they work?
​
Security has always been a key concern to many homeowners and businessmen, whether it’s ensuring safety of the precious valuables or properties with physical locks or protecting data with multiple layers of encryption.
However, many have highlighted the flaws in those systems. For example, physical locks can be tampered or broken into with force, while digital lock, such as those using RFID, can be jammed or corrupted.
With the rapid advancement in technologies, security companies have developed a wide array of both software and hardware systems that protect your valuables. Biometric door system is one of the latest and most advanced in this line, combining the best of both physical and digital locks to ensure maximum security for your property.

​What is Biometric Access Control System?

Biometric access control system is a sophisticated security system that uses biometrics instead of keys, RFID Card, or access codes to secure the premises. Apart from only using biometrics for authentication, the system can be programed to multiple levels of authentication before unlocking.
This method of access system is also more convenient to the user as one would never have to worry about forgetting your key, keycard or access codes again as this form of authentication is always with you be it fingerprint or facial recognition.

How does Biometric Door Systems Work? 
​
Biometric door systems works by identifying individual biological recognition patterns such as fingerprint or facial recognition. These recognition patterns are encoded into a set of data points and compared against the registered database. If a match is found, the system recognizes the person and allows entry by unlocking the locks.

• Fingerprints – Fingerprint readers encode the detected pattern into the set of data points into the console or device that is installed next to the door. From there, the entered data is compared against the database of registered patterns. If the encoded pattern has a match in the database, a signal will be sent to the locking mechanism to open the door.
• Facial Patterns – Self-contained units attached to the network detect the pattern of your face instead of simply your fingerprints, and these facial readers can be easily installed.
