Proximity Reader

This video created by Joe Swaika, Associate Architect at Herrington Architects, illustrates another application of the in-door proximity reader installation mentioned in the December 21 entry on The Door Blog.

As you can see, when a person holds his prox card to the surface of the door on the right with the prox reader in it, an automatic operator is triggered on the opposite door and it opens to let the person in.  This application is perfect for accommodating persons in wheelchairs or with disabilities.
