Proximity Readers are Hands-Free and Convenient

Proximity readers, also known as long-range RFID readers, are an excellent solution for anyone who would like access to their automatic gate just by pulling up to it. Whether you don’t want to fumble with a remote that never stays in place, don’t want to worry about changing the batteries, or just want an access control process that is easy and straightforward, you should seriously consider a vehicle detection system.

There are many different proximity readers on the market, and a noteworthy model is the AWid Long-Range reader. With the AWid LR3000, you have a range of up to 25 feet for sensor detection to open your automated gate or barrier.

There are many electronic devices that can distract us as we’re driving nowadays, and you don’t need one more remote or card to search for to open your gate. If you have a remote and the batteries die, it can be extra frustrating just to simply gain access to your property. Keep your eyes on the road and your mind focused with a proximity reader that can do all the work for you. Simply place a credential in your windshield and the reader will get a signal when you are within range. You can even give different access to different credentials if you want some people to only have access to your property at certain times.

The AWid LR3000 also offers a TEK kit for bench testing the unit and/or testing the unit in the field. The TEK kit comes with a beeper, a power supply, a windshield tag, a card, a USB adapter and alligator clips for ease of connecting. This TEK kit can save money for you and the customer.

The RFID reader can be mounted to a gooseneck stand with an AWid long-range reader mounting bracket. This bracket gives you numerous degrees and angles to adjust your reader to the desired spot. This is useful when working with vehicles of different heights using your automated gate.

Proximity readers are the perfect choice for those looking for a no-hassle, hands-free gate opening option for all your entry and exit points. If you have any interest in a proximity reader and would like to know more, please contact us or submit a request for a free estimate today.
