Security Solution for Elevator Control at Apartments
1, Reasons for using elevator control security solutions
– Most apartments have a large number of people coming in and out with quite a large frequency. The use of elevators up and down takes place regularly and continuously, at any time of the day. Therefore, this elevator system needs to meet 24/7 operating capacity.
– With the previous manual operating model, controlling elevator access creates many difficulties for managers. Therefore, there is a need for an elevator control solution.
– Elevator control solutions will help managers solve many problems. It's easier to control people coming in and out of the elevator. Minimize personnel costs or the cost of hiring security guards...
– Elevator control solution will effectively and thoroughly overcome security issues.
– The system helps to check details of elevator users at all times and in all locations
– In some cases, if an incident occurs, this system will easily find and quickly find the cause and the cause.
– This control system will also alarm when an elevator or building problem occurs
– Calling the elevator quickly will minimize waiting time and avoid causing inconvenience to users.
– For densely populated buildings with many people going in and out, the system will support and reduce overload when used. Thereby saving elevator operating costs and avoiding unnecessary waste.
2, What does the elevator control security solution include?
2.1, Basic features of elevator control solution
– Control feature right at the elevator doors of the floors. That means, only people who are authorized to use the elevator can use the elevator's up and down and floor calling features. On the contrary, people who are not authorized will not be able to press the floor call button and cannot enter the elevator. This feature will help save energy and increase efficiency when using the elevator.
– The feature uses more modern authentication methods such as: controlling the elevator with fingerprint or magnetic card, QR code or even facial recognition.
– Feature of decentralizing access to building floors over time. Meaning, the system only allows someone to use the elevator according to the prescribed hour/day/month/year.
– Feature to store elevator access information using specialized elevator control software. Thereby, supporting retrieving or checking information at any time. In particular, the software interface is friendly and easy to use.
2.2, Basic structure of elevator control system
– Elevator controller (control center)
– Reader: fingerprint, magnetic card, password
– Signal connector between reader and computer
– Connector between reader and central controller
– Staging sets are allowed to move.
2.3, What types of elevator control are there?
The elevator control system is a smart, simple but extremely effective solution in ensuring building security. Current solutions are researched and installed to suit the characteristics of each type of elevator, each building as well as the needs of customers. But basically elevator control includes the following two types:
- Classless elevator control type: Is the most widely used elevator control system solution on the market today, with the advantage of low investment costs and easy management, often used for apartment buildings, residential buildings, mini apartments...
For example: In some buildings with 7 floors or more, the landlord uses the upper floors and the remaining floors from the 7th floor to the 1st floor are rented to other units for business. Here, the landlord wants to control from the 8th floor onwards so that only members of his family can access it. We will use magnetic cards to control these floors, leaving the remaining floors free.
- The second type is layered control: Is an elevator control system at a higher level of security. With the decentralized elevator floor selection control solution using card readers and fingerprint readers, when an elevator user wants to select the floor he wants to go, he is required to confirm member information (touch card or password) on the reader before pressing the key to select the floor he wants to go. The keys allowed to press will correspond to the floors that this user is allowed to go, the keys to call the remaining floors will be disabled.
For example, for a building with 7 floors, there will be 7 types of magnetic cards. Whoever has the card on which floor can use the elevator to get to that floor. This type often costs more and requires more complicated installation techniques. Besides the magnetic card reader, there is also a more advanced solution of using a fingerprint reader with higher security.
Current elevator control systems use card swipe technology, fingerprints, QR codes, and even facial recognition. The elevator control solution using magnetic cards is the most popular and suitable system for use today.

2.4, Describe the operation of the elevator control security solution
Elevator control is carried out systematically and procedurally
– At each floor elevator door there will be a fingerprint reader or magnetic card reader. The elevator controller will be connected to the reader located in the elevator cabin. Elevator users need to be issued a card or fingerprint confirmation to be able to use and call the floor.
– When no one is using the elevator, the floor call buttons will be set to OFF.
– When a person has a registered card, they will put their fingerprint or swipe the card through the reader (distance 10Cm). The reader confirms the validity, then the floor selection button will operate to be able to use the elevator.
2.5, Elevator control system management software
– Besides physical devices, management software is indispensable in the elevator control system. The software allows adding, deleting and managing elevator usage activities.
– The management interface of the elevator control software system is simple and easy to use. Managers can completely export reports as excel files. At the same time, you can diversify report templates, synthesize detailed reports or make statistics on daily traffic.
– Elevator management software supports decentralization according to detailed functions, suitable for each allowed manager.
– Besides, this software also supports many different access modes for different doors at different time periods.
– Complete and detailed input and output monitoring functions and reports.
– In addition, this elevator control system management software can also be combined with third-party solutions and security system solutions in buildings and apartments in the most effective way.
