Hundure Dormitory Access Control Management

Throw Your Physical Card Away!

QR Code makes your access more convenient!

Background

XXX University is a comprehensive university located in suburbs and has almost 4,000 students. The university provides separate dormitories for male and female students, which are furnished with security systems, air-conditioned facilities, washing machines, drinking fountains and television.

Like most student dormitories, each dormitory door is restricted by an access controller, and residents must swipe the access cards to enter and exit. Recently, there have been some security issues in the dormitory. For example, only one resident swipes the card, but many residents follows him to enter and exit. Sometimes the door is left ajar, making it easy for outsiders to break in. The most serious security problem is tailgating. Break-in and tailgating can result in theft and endanger life. Specially, the female dormitory only has access control at the main door, and the security is insufficient.

In addition, the residents have to swiped the access control card to enter and exit the dormitory, and the student ID card and the traffic card were not integrated together, which was not convenient enough. And the current access control controllers are all stand-alone, which need to be set up on site and are not easy to manage. Finally, physical access cards are easily forgotten, so alternative access credentials are critical.

To improve the security dormitories, a new system and new access control machines are surveyed. Hundure dormitory management solution is recommended. QR Code controllers are installed in the main door of all dormitories. In addition, each female dormitory is equipped with two tripod turnstiles (Entry and Exit) with QR Code readers to solve the problem of personnel tailgating and intrusion and improve the security. When the resident forgets to bring the card, a time-limited access QR Code can be applied for unlocking the door. The dormitory access control card, student ID card, and transportation card are all in one, making it more convenient to use. Hundure delivers fully integrated, bespoke access control solutions for modern student residence, and dormitory.
