Overview / Usage

LabKey is the revolutionary access management system that can be used on any type of electric lock.

LabKey is available in two versions: with external NFC reader or with numeric keypad. Thanks to the connection to the Cloud and to the dedicated management software it is possible to manage users, keys, entrances and permits; view the logs and export everything in excel or pdf. Moreover there is the possibility of activating the virtual keyboard**, **with which is possible to unlock the entrances thrugh phone.

Each LabKey device can be used to monitor a single gate (plus any external gate in the case of virtual keyboard activation).

With the CRM it is possible:

• Generate new keys or delete them;
• Associate the keys with the users you want and assign time permits (days, times, dates);
• Receive a notification every time a user accesses or tries to access an access point;
• Get useful statistical data for your business that can be exported in .csv and .pdf
