Fob Reader Installation

Simple access with a physical fob.

Fobs provide another credential-based access option for controlled entrances. They offer a compact physical credential that can be carried separately from a wallet or identification card.

Sheger can install fob readers as part of a new access-control installation or as part of a broader entrance upgrade.

Card Vs. Fob

Two credential options. One controlled entrance.

01 Card Useful where users already carry identification cards or where a card-based credential fits the property's access process.
02 Fob A compact alternative that can be convenient for users who regularly access controlled doors.
03 User Requirements Consider how users access the property and the number of people requiring access.
04 Entrance Requirements The door, hardware and overall entrance configuration also influence the setup.
