Access Control Keypads

An access control keypad is the principal bridge that allows users to “communicate” with electronic security systems. They’re standalone units that read PIN codes to signal door controllers to release locks, but only when users enter the correct codes. You can get access control keypads in different designs. Some have backlighting to ensure you don’t press the wrong code in low visibility instances (like night time), while others have weather-resistant housings for outdoor use. Others can resist vandalism with their stainless steel construction, making them ideal for public areas. Some have advanced dual technology that supports both PIN codes and proximity cards for the ultimate in access flexibility.

A few keypad access control units have anti-tailgating features, which require each user to authenticate individually. That prevents piggybacking through secured doors. Meanwhile, relay output models directly control electric locks without a separate controller. That’s perfect for simple, small installations. With so many options, picking the right keypad for your access control can be frustratingly challenging.

That’s why we’re here. At Locks & Handles we offer a wide range of access control keypads from the world’s trusted names, including Alpro (with its unique Braille-integrated system designed specifically for visually-challenged users and an ultra-slim option) and TSS’s heavy-duty offering for the outdoors. We’ll help you sort out the right keypad for your property.
