Biometrics comprises methods for uniquely recognizing humans based upon one or more intrinsic physical or behavioural traits. In the door hardware industry in particular, biometrics is used as a form of identity management for access control purposes.

As door hardware specialists the biometric characteristics we are interested in are physiological, i.e. related to the shape of the body.

Examples include, but are not limited to, fingerprint, face recognition, palm print, hand geometry and iris recognition.

Biometric/PIN Lock The REL.RB3001L is suitable for use on all standard duty, high security external door installations in commercial or residential environments and on any door where a flexible Euro profile key override system is required. The REL.RB3001L uses fingerprint recognition. Fingerprints have a universality, permanence and uniqueness. Inclusion of fingerprint recognition at the door places a new meaning on the term ‘digital’ lock!

PIN Access Control The REL.RB3002L is a stand-alone, PIN controlled lock designed to switch the status of a Euro profile cylinder sash lock case. The true 10 digit operation provides possible code options running into billions of permutations. Security is provided by careful management of users and PINs and the issuing of keys to effect key override. Since the number of available PIN codes operable at any one time is restricted to a maximum of 10 it is necessary to issue common codes where potential user numbers exceed this figure. The REL.RB3002L is ideal for use where simple/non-technical system administration, i.e. code changing, is required.
