About Entry Automation products

Entry automation controls access to homes and businesses through intercoms and powered door hardware. The automation systems listed here include door entry systems such as ABB-Welcome, which connect visitors at the entrance with occupants inside.

Entry automation isn’t just for businesses. As newer and better models of entry automation enter the market, modern homes can enjoy the ease of use that comes with a system that recognises you without the need for a key using facial recognition technology and more. Whether you’re looking for a smartphone door lock or a digital card lock, ArchiPro’s catalogue contains the finest products on the market, selected from trusted suppliers across Australia.

Entry gates

Entry gates only allow through personnel who have the right token or other form of identification. These days facial recognition systems offer an even simpler, faster way to manage entry.   For entry and exit systems, sensors need to detect approaching vehicles early enough for the gate to open and remain clear while they pass through.

Smart locks

One of the more common forms of home automation, smart locks are bluetooth or WiFi-enabled locks that allow you to leave your keys behind. In keyless entry systems, check how access permissions for an automated lock can be cancelled when a phone is lost or an occupant moves out.

Welcome stations

Welcome stations provide maps, business information, and timetables to those new to a building. These days they are often touch sensitive, and may also include lighting automation to ensure the correct areas of the building are lit.

The advantages of high-quality entry automation

When it comes to security devices, it’s vital that they function correctly every time. High-quality materials and quality assurance procedures ensure that your entry technology reliably allows the correct personnel through while keeping unwanted guests outside. An access control door system should also allow different permissions for staff and visitors, rather than giving every user access to every area.

Entry automation points will often be one of the first in-person encounters a potential customer will have with your company, so it’s important to make a good first impression. Only choosing high-quality equipment displays competence in a subtle yet effective way.

How to choose an entry automation system that’s right for you

Choosing the right entry automation equipment requires you to think carefully about not just what your needs are currently, but how the traffic through your building may fluctuate over time.

Entrance systems need to account for the door's opening mechanism as well as the way people move through it. For an electric door that pivots, the Summit Pivot Door Motor is one of the listed motor options. Check how electronic doors can be opened during a power failure before selecting the controls.

It can be difficult to strike the right balance between security and ease of use, so you may want to consult a professional if you are new to the situation. ArchiPro has a network of experts in Australia that you can easily connect with for advice.

Can you put a smart lock on any door?

Smart locks can be installed on any door that would allow a conventional lock of the same size to be installed.

Can you put a smart lock in an apartment?

Provided you have permission from the landlord, there is no reason you can’t install a smart lock in your apartment.

Can smart door locks work when the internet goes down?

Almost all modern smart door locks function over Bluetooth as well as WiFi, allowing them to communicate with your device while the internet is down.

Are smart locks easily hacked?

Although smart locks can be hacked, they are no less secure than standard locks, which can be picked or broken. Smart lever locks physically lock in the same manner as a normal door, and so provide the same security.
