DOOR & ACCESS
Access control that opens the door and records the visit.
Access rules live on the plan: gender, time windows past midnight, day masks, per-gate allowlists and tier ceilings. A freeze or an expiry tears the record down on every terminal.
Members carry any mix of credentials: an anti-clone DESFire NFC card or wristband, their phone over Bluetooth, the rotating QR in the member app, or their face at a terminal.
Schedules are compiled into reader and terminal firmware, so the door keeps opening with the internet down. When it returns, a realtime queue, a 15-minute sweep and a reconciler fix drift in both directions.

Shown, not told.
- Install a Hikvision face terminalPut a face terminal on the gym network, connect it to Prism, and push your members to it so a face opens the door.
- Install a ZKTeco face terminalConnect a ZKTeco BioFace terminal to Prism. It dials out to us, so it works from any site with internet — but two menu settings decide whether it enforces membership expiry at all.
- Face terminals: Anviz / TIMY (cloud)Connect an Anviz / TIMY face terminal to Prism: add it by serial, type four values into the terminal's Comm menu, sync — then everything else is automatic, from anywhere.
