Remote Door Control

SMB customers can momentarily unlock a gate, roller door, or other type of door, from anywhere at any time. This saves the need to travel to the business, for example, when someone needs access to a site after hours, such as a courier driver dropping off goods.

For Site Managers and Site Admins with additional remote unlock/locking privileges, OPEN, PULSE, UNLOCK, UP, and/or ON buttons appear in the DOORS tab of the SMB app. Correspondingly, CLOSE, LOCK, DOWN, and OFF buttons are available to perform the opposite actions.

On the DOORS tab of the SMB app:

Door

State	Buttons available
Locked	OPEN: Unlocks the door for a few seconds so someone may enter. The door locks again as soon as it is shut (after being opened). UNLOCK: Overrides the door to remain unlocked until its schedule or another override locks it
Unlocked	LOCK: Overrides the door to remain locked until its schedule or another override unlocks it.

Automatic Door

State	Buttons available
Closed	PULSE: Unlocks and opens the door for a few seconds so someone may enter. OPEN: Overrides the door to remain open until its schedule or another override closes it.
Open	CLOSE: Overrides the door to remain closed until its schedule or another override opens it.

Roller Door

State	Buttons available
Down	PULSE: Pulses the roller door open. UP: Overrides the door to remain up until its schedule or another override closes it.
Up	DOWN: Overrides the door to remain down until its schedule or another override opens it up.

• The door cannot be "Opened" or "Pulsed" if the site is armed (just like it cannot be unlocked).

• In the table above, all buttons described with the word "Overrides" will override the status of the door. All other buttons do not change the door's status.

• Temporarily opening ('Door' and 'Other' type doors' OPEN button) or pulsing a door creates 'Opened by' events in the door's Event History.

• Temporarily opening or pulsing a door sends a command to the Controller to unlock the door. This is not a request for access.
