Unlock Doors by Waving Hands 

With Openpath, your employees can have 100 percent touch-free access control. After you’ve installed an Openpath reader outside the doors in your office, the reader can sense hand gestures up to a few inches away. When an employee waves their hand in front of the reader, it will trigger an authentication and authorization request with a user’s smartphone via Bluetooth.  

The best part is, employees don’t even need to have their phone out. As long as their phone is in their pocket or a bag, they will be granted access. This form of touchless access control keeps employees moving through your commercial building without congestion, the risk of unwanted intruders gaining access to your building, or spreading germs. 

Unlock Doors Directly Through an App 

Many access control systems on the market tighten security by requiring employees to touch a common reader, keypad, or biometric scanner. In a pre-pandemic world, this would be a great way to protect your office, but it does nothing to prevent the spread of germs.  

With Openpath, authorized users can unlock doors in your building using the Openpath app. All they need to do is open the app on their smartphone when near the Openpath reader, tap a button, and the door will unlock. Worried this won’t work when you’re experiencing Wi-Fi difficulties? The Openpath app uses triple unlock technology that sends the unlock request through Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular data, so you have multiple ways of getting in.
