The wireless Bluetooth access control hardware is installed/mounted by an electrician or locksmith. Our system controllers have built-in, long-range, wireless Bluetooth readersSmart Devices, meaning they can be completely out of sight (even on the inside of the door/gate), away from vandals and the elements.
Once the wireless readerSmart Device/controller is installed, you simply have the user download the free smartphone app so that they can securely receive virtual VIZpin “keys”.

We can’t reveal all the secret details, but essentially, a VIZpin key is created and generated at the secure VIZpin server, and then sent to the user’s app. When the user comes into range of the VIZpin readerSmart Device-controller and presses the button, it wirelessly confirms (using Bluetooth) that the key is accurate for that user, readerSmart Device-controller, and time period, and then unlocks the door. If the VIZpin key is not valid for any reason, the door will remain locked!

We offer a Bluetooth FOB that works with our door controllers. These are managed through your VIZpin portal, and access can be 24×7 or follow one set schedule designated for FOB users. Because VIZpin access control is designed around using a smartphone as the network and transmitting information back and forth to the cloud-based portal, VIZpin FOB users can only account for a maximum of 20% of an account’s active users. In addition, each smart lock can only support 32 FOBs, and each VP1 can only support 512 cards/FOBs.
After issuing a VIZpin key, how long before my visitor will receive it in his app?
