Smart Lock Solutions

NFC / RFID Access Control

Card-based access for locks and readers, including the antenna work that metal panels demand.

Overview

Card access is mature, cheap and familiar to users, which is why it remains the default in hotels, offices and rental properties. The engineering difficulty is almost always the antenna and the credential lifecycle, not the reader chip.

We design 13.56 MHz readers for the actual enclosure — including metal front panels, where the coil needs ferrite shielding and careful tuning — and implement the credential model: issue, bind, expire and revoke.

For hotel and multi-room deployments, the system can run offline with date-encoded cards, or online with a gateway that synchronises revocation across rooms.

Capabilities

What this covers

01

13.56 MHz reading

ISO14443A/B and ISO15693 credentials, with model-specific MIFARE and DESFire support.

02

Metal-panel antenna

Coil geometry, ferrite shielding and matching network designed for metal escutcheons.

03

Credential lifecycle

Card issuance, binding, expiry and revocation managed in the app or property system.

04

Online or offline

Date-encoded offline cards for hotels, or gateway-synchronised revocation for managed properties.
