Approved passes open the right gate
Connect the turnstiles, flap barriers, boom barriers and door controllers you already have. A valid QR pass, card or vehicle tag opens the lane, and every opening is written into the same log as the guard's entries.

Capabilities
Works with hardware you already own
Most sites have some access hardware already. Ctrlapptech connects to it through a small gateway on site, so passes and devices follow the same rules.
Turnstiles and flap barriers
QR readers at lobby and factory lanes. A valid pass opens one lane, once, within its time window.
Boom barriers
RFID tags and number plate cameras for resident and staff vehicles. Visitor vehicles open on guard approval.
Door controllers
Server rooms, labs and stores. Access by role, shift and time of day, managed from one dashboard.
Cards and tags
Use existing employee cards or issue new ones. Lost cards are blocked at every reader at once.
Relay and dry contact
Simple barriers and gates without a controller can be opened by the guard tablet through a relay.
Device health
See which readers, barriers and controllers are online, and get an alert when a lane jams or goes offline.
At the gate
What happens when a pass meets a lane
Privacy with hardware
- AI never opens or closes a device. Openings follow pass rules and guard decisions.
- Face readers are optional and used only with notice and consent. Cards, QR and PIN always remain available.
- Device logs follow the same retention period as visitor logs and are deleted after.
- All commands between the site gateway and the cloud are encrypted.
- 01
Pass is presented
A visitor shows a QR, an employee taps a card, or a car with a tag reaches the barrier.
- 02
Ctrlapptech checks the rules
Is the pass valid now, at this gate, for this person, within their shift or time window?
- 03
The device opens
The site gateway sends the open command to the turnstile, barrier or door.
- 04
One record
The opening is logged with time, lane and pass, next to the guard's own entries.

Questions
Asked at the gatehouse
Can we use our existing barriers?
Usually, yes. Send us the make and model of your turnstiles, barriers and controllers and we will confirm before you subscribe.
What if the internet goes down?
The site gateway keeps the current pass list locally, so valid passes and cards continue to work. Logs sync when the connection returns.
Do you sell hardware?
We recommend tested readers, turnstiles and barriers and can arrange supply and installation through partners. You are free to use your own.
Is face recognition required?
No. It is an option a site can choose with notice and consent. QR, cards, tags and PIN work without it.
