Readers & Access Cards
Choose the reader that fits your environment without compromising security: wired readers for maximum credential flexibility, a contactless palm vein biometric reader, and a video intercom that combines access control with visitor engagement. Every device is managed from the same FACES2 portal.
FACES2 wired readers
Weather-sealed readers for indoor and outdoor doors, wired over OSDP RS-485 to the F2 Smart Controller for stable performance at high-traffic and mission-critical access points. Every model reads QR codes, smart cards, phones, and wearables; keypad models add PIN entry.
NFC tap and QR code camera in a weather-sealed wall-mount housing for indoor and outdoor doors.
Adds an illuminated touch keypad for PIN and PIN-plus-credential entry at higher security doors.
Narrow mullion-mount profile with QR camera and card reading, IP65 rated for exposed installs.
The slim profile with an integrated keypad, IP65 rated for door frames and gates in any weather.
Battery-powered locks, no cabling at the door
Not every door can be wired. Battery-powered wireless locks connect over Wi-Fi or Matter, bringing FACES2 access control to interior doors, guest rooms, and retrofit projects, managed alongside your wired doors in the same console.
An all-in-one battery-powered lock for regular interior doors. Reader and handle in a single unit, ideal for offices, boardrooms, and shared spaces that need controlled access without cabling.
Contactless reader, lever, and mortise deadbolt in a single plate, with mechanical key override. Built for guest room and residence style doors.
A discreet two-piece design pairing a compact contactless reader with a standard lever. A clean fit for guest rooms and suites.
Video intercom reader
Combines advanced access control with real-time communication and intelligent screening, ideal for secure visitor management at the front door.
Palm vein reader
Palm vein recognition reads the vein pattern beneath the skin of the palm, a biometric that is unique to each person and invisible from the outside. The scan is converted to an encrypted template, and every presentation is verified against it in under a second. It is the credential of choice where accuracy and convenience are paramount.
Bring your HID® readers
FACES2 is fully OSDP compatible, the open supervised communication protocol used by HID readers. Any HID Seos, iCLASS SE®, iCLASS SR®, or iCLASS® reader, including the HID Signo™ line, connects to the F2 Smart Controller over OSDP on RS-485 with secure channel. Signo readers are UL294 listed and IP65 rated for indoor and outdoor use, and support mobile credentials over Bluetooth and NFC, including Apple Wallet.

Access cards
FACES2 smart cards come in three security levels, all issued and revoked centrally from the portal alongside fobs and NFC/BLE mobile credentials. Temporary passes give guests, contractors, and deliveries controlled, time-limited access.
