Card, fingerprint or face: how to open the door

Comparison
Four ways to pass
- Card or fobSimple and inexpensive. But a card can be lost, left at home or handed to someone else.
- CodeNothing to carry. But codes get forgotten — and shared with colleagues.
- FingerprintYour finger is always with you and cannot be handed over. Dirty, wet or damaged hands get in the way — which matters in production.
- FaceContactless entry: you walk up and the door opens. No card to lose, no code to forget, and clocking in for a colleague is much harder.
- Two ways at onceMany terminals handle several methods: for example, face for staff and a card for guests.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
What should an office choose?
Most often face: it is convenient for staff and gives honest attendance records.
What about production or a warehouse?
Where hands are in gloves or dusty, face or a card is handier than a fingerprint.
How much does terminal installation cost?
Installing an access control terminal costs UZS 600,000. Equipment is priced separately.
