Crestron with ekey fingerprint scanner

ekey – the starting point for the intelligent house

A new take on life thanks to ekey & Crestron
Using a building intelligently starts with how you access it. Control your doors and gates with an ekey fingerprint scanner and enjoy the unique convenience of keyless living. The fingers of those authorized to enter undergo a unique matching procedure, which ensures additional security within your home and opens up new opportunities you never thought possible.

Combine the fingerprint scanner with the many benefits of your Crestron system. Together we make it easy for you to control building technology components and even events with your finger.


ekey & Crestron
ekey biometric systems GmbH is an official Crestron integration partner. Thanks to the integration, ekey fingerprint scanners can be seamlessly integrated into the Crestron 3-Series®, Crestron 4-Series®, and Crestron Home control systems.

Excellent partnership

In 2022 ekey was awarded at the “Crestron Europe Integration Awards 2021”: “Crestron Home – Most Creative Use of a Crestron Home Extension” for the integration of the ekey fingerprint scanners with Crestron Home.

Previously, ekey was recognized in North America in 2019 in the “Best Integration Utilizing Crestron Partners” category.

Application examples for your Crestron system

Enjoy a new level of comfort with an ekey fingerprint scanner

Event “Coming home”

Finally you can relax when you get off work! You come home and with just a swipe of your finger the door opens, the blinds go up, the light turns on, and the alarm system is deactivated. It is quite simple to adapt the system to your needs!

Event “Family-friendly house”

Even children from around six years of age can use the ekey fingerprint scanner, as it recognizes fingers despite their growth. Depending on the characteristics of the particular home, individual settings can be programmed – e.g. that the pool cover cannot be opened.

Full control – intuitive & clear

Administer your ekey access control system easily via your Crestron Home app

Easy in-app administration

ekey fingerprint scanners can be fully integrated into the Crestron Home system. You can trigger different events with individual fingers, and performing user administration is both convenient and clear from the Crestron Home app.

Individual settings

Family members, guests, employees, or cleaning staff – you have full control. You can quickly and easily assign the desired authorizations to each user so that the system meets your individual requirements.
