Secure yet convenient Bluetooth Intent Unlock

Prevent unintentional unlocks by requiring both proximity-based Bluetooth authentication and precise unlock intent in front of the reader, such as a hand wave. Fully customize the unlock trigger to provide the right level of security and convenience for each door.

Choose any form of credential

Verkada’s door readers support a wide variety of credentials, including low-frequency proximity cards, high-frequency NFC credentials like Verkada DESFire EV3, and encrypted mobile credentials such as Apple Wallet and Bluetooth.

Encryption at every step

Secure doors and protect your data with state-of-the-art encryption standards. Verkada door readers support MIFARE DESFire EV3 credentials and use Secure Channel OSDP v2 to communicate with the access controller. Sensitive data is encrypted at rest and in transit between the access controller and Command.

Easy to install and manage

The AD34 and AD64 readers are simple to install and let admins see reader connection quality in Verkada Command to monitor performance and flag connectivity issues.

Customize unlock triggers for each door

Select the unlock trigger that provides the right level of security and convenience for each entryway. For instance, one preset allows a door to unlock as a user walks up to it — no hand wave required — while another is designed for a garage setting.

Set precise unlock requirements

Beyond the preset options, you can fully customize the requirements for Bluetooth proximity and object distance in order to achieve the unlock experience that is most suitable for the needs of a given door.

Powered by time-of-flight technology

Intent Unlock is powered by a cutting edge time-of-flight sensor on the AD34 and AD64, which accurately measures the distance between the reader and objects up to two meters away.
