This sections covers door creation process. Door is one of the main entities in access control.
Here you can define entry & exit points, create single reader or multiple reader door, configure door modes, inputs and outputs (relays).

Doors in different locations are shown in separate lists. You can switch to another location in the upper right corner of the page.

- Lock - Sets the door state to
Locked
, no one can pass through even with valid credentials until the door state is changed.
- Unlock - Sets the door state to
Unlocked
, everyone can pass through without any credentials.
- Secure -
Default
door state, only people with valid credentials and access levels can pass through.
- Indicates that the lock of the door is secure.
- Indicates that the lock of the door is currently unlocked.
Doors can be added by clicking Add button. To add entry or exit point, device (controller) must be already present in the system.

- Name - Enter door name.
- Strike time - Time period (in seconds) for strike relay to be active.
- Held open time - Time period after
door monitor
generates "Door held open" event.
- Elevator - Set doors as elevator entry. Available when you have elevators configured. Only entry reader can be configured.

- Door device type - Can be set as "None" or as "Reader".
- Device - Select controller device.
- Module - Select which module will be used. For controller, it will be Internal panel otherwise select corresponding module i.e. x100 or v100.
- Reader address - Select which port "Reader" is connected to. This depends on controller type and ussually marked on device itself.
- Authentication mode - Select default authentication mode. Card, PIN only, Card and/or PIN, Facility code.
- Time and attendance - Designate reader as "Clock in" or "Clock out" device.
PIN only mode requires user to have card. You can use "Generate unique card" function to add "virtual" card.

- Door device type - "None", "Reader" or "REX". If set as "Reader" then the settings are the same as for "Entry reader".
- Device - Select controller device.
- Module - Select which module will be used for REX input. For controller, it will be Internal panel otherwise select corresponding module i.e. x100 or v100.

- Use “Quiet REX” - Generates REX events without activating strike relay.
- Suppress “Door forced open” alarm - Will not generate “Door forced open” events.
- LED & Beeper template - Select template for OSDP readers. Supported only with HID Aero and Mercury controllers. Templates can be configured in settings.
- Double card feature - enables ACR(Access Control Reader) mode which generates 2nd event with reason "Double card presented". Swiping card on the reader once will generate normal "Access granted" event. Second swipe within 5 seconds will generate additional "Access granted" event with reason "Double card presented". This further can be used in triggers, i.e. activating output or arming/disarming intrusion area.
- Classroom mode - The access control reader is normally secure and the inside lever/REX (Request to Exit) always allows free egress. Valid toggle credentials on the exterior may be used to change to a passage (unlocked) or secured status. Supported only with HID Aero and Mercury controllers.
- Toggle credentials - For modes that use toggle credentials (Classroom) this is enabled using the double card functionality. When a double card is used as a toggle in the extended feature the separate double card transactions are not generated.
- First card unlock - The term "first card unlock" is used to describe a use case where the first access grant within a defined schedule will unlock door for the same schedule. Enabling this mode will require you to select a schedule template.
I.e. we have created a schedule called "Working hours" with set interval from 08:00 to 17:00. Using "Access mode override" will automatically unlock door at given schedule no matter what. First card unlock allows us to engage door unlock only after first access grant.
Enabling "Classroom" mode will allow you to use double card functionality.

You can change how door monitor input behaves depending on your wiring.
- Normally open
- Normally closed
- Supervised 2K1K normally closed
- Supervised 2K1K normally open

You can re-assign inputs and relays in this secntion.
- Door monitor module - Select which module door monitor inpupt is connected to.
- Door monitor - Select input number which acts as door monitor input.
- Door Strike Relay module - Select which module door strike relay output is connected to.
- "Strike" relay - Select output number which acts as strike relay output.
On HID VertX EVO series devices dedicated inputs cannot be modified.

In this section you can set schedule to override door access mode. I.e. scheduled door mode allow to keep lobby door unlocked and open during work hours, automatically switching to secure mode at night.
Available "door modes":
- Unlocked - doors are unlocked and users can gain access without credentials.
- Locked - doors are locked and users with valid credentials cannot gain access.

- Facility code - Card with enabled facility code in settings required to gain access.
Older devices such as HID VertX or EVO series only supports Unlocked mode.
Door mode schedule
Create a schedule and apply it to door mode. Always and never are built-in schedules.
Offline access mode allows to define door access mode when master controller goes offline. Readers that are connected with modules such as HID Aero x100 must be present.

- Locked - doors are locked and users with valid credentials cannot gain access.
- Facility code - Card with enabled facility code in settings required to gain access.
