Elegant, first-class design and secure: Fingerscan 2.0
Thanks to the Fingerscan 2.0 door handle, you can now open entrance doors easily and securely with just one finger swipe. Conventional access control solutions such as keys, cards, or codes can now be replaced by this innovative solution. The traditional FSB round handle versions will be supplied with an integrated ekey finger scanner, mounted on the rear side of the door handle. On the front side, just a single LED alludes to all the electronics behind. The fingerscan door handles may manage up to 99 fingers for private users, and can also be used in companies as a network solution called ekey net.
