Focus Fire & Security can provide your organisation with time and attendance, access control and door lock products utilising the most advanced fingerprint technologies. A non biometric product line such as door locks and security keypads for basic access control are also available from Focus Fire & Security.

Fingerprint scanners offer a unique modular design for seamless integration into existing access control systems large or small. ease of use, low cost, and compatibility make the this an excellent choice for those who wish to integrate cutting-edge security technology into their own existing security systems.

Fingerprint recognition is a biometric security method that integrates with applications and other technologies to provide a way to identify a person by scanning a person’s fingerprint to gain access. Fingerprint recognition is a way to provide higher security when needed due to the fact that the system does not use any passwords or pin numbers but only valid fingerprints.

Because there are several fingerprint recognition solutions that are available today, we will only give you a general overview of how fingerprint recognition can work.

• The first step is to setup your fingerprint recognition device and scan all fingerprints that will be granted access. You will only need to do this once as the fingerprint recognition device stores the fingerprints as templates in a mathematical algorithm form. Depending on your setup, the device may store this in a database or use smart card technology for local storage of these fingerprint templates.

• When a individual is wanting access, the individual must put their finger on the fingerprint recognition device or depending on the type of system, you may only need to put it close to the fingerprint scanning area. The fingerprint recognition device then captures the individual’s fingerprint and puts in into a template form using a mathematical algorithm and compares it to its database or storage of fingerprints to determine if it matches any existing fingerprints. If the fingerprint device finds a match then access is granted.
