1Control ACCESS - retrofit plug and play access control for existing entry points
1Control ACCESS - access control for businesses and organisations

When standard solutions are no longer enough

Many organisations need to manage access for multiple people, with different rules, traceability requirements and entry methods. Consumer solutions are often too limited. Traditional professional systems are often too complex. ACCESS fills the gap between these two extremes.

Too simple

A standard remote control or consumer solution opens the entry point, but doesn't truly manage users, schedules, permissions and access history.

Our solution

ACCESS

The installation simplicity you expect from a ready-to-use solution, with the control of a true multi-user system.

Too complex

An integrated building automation system or a custom access control installation requires more configuration, more integration, longer activation times and more friction for both the installer and the manager.

Simple installation, immediate activation

ACCESS is designed to make simple what is usually complicated. All you need is 12 VDC power and a dry contact output to the opening input of the entry point.

The device has built-in LTE connectivity with an included SIM: it powers on, goes online on its own and is ready straight away. No network configuration, no complex setup, no software to install.


Discover how it installs

A single interface to manage everything

From the web admin area you can view devices, create users and groups, assign permissions, define days and time slots, monitor access attempts and check in real time who entered, from which point and with which method.

Access log and real-time monitoring with 1Control ACCESS

All access methods, one system

App via internet, app via Bluetooth, remote controls, PIN, badges and licence plate recognition coexist in the same platform. The value isn't just being able to enter in different ways: it's the fact that all methods remain governed by the same authorisation rules.

Diagram of the different access methods with ACCESS
business access management automation

Every user has precise rules, valid across all their access methods

If a person can only enter on specific days and times, that rule automatically applies to their smartphone, remote control, badge, PIN or linked licence plate.

ACCESS centralises permissions, groups and entry methods in a single logic, so the organisation governs who enters, when and how without having to manage separate exceptions for each technology.

Control who enters and exits the business

Complete traceability and real-time control

You don't just open the entry point. You can see who entered, when, from which access point and with which method, with a searchable history in the web admin area.

This makes ACCESS a control and accountability tool, useful for employees, suppliers, maintenance personnel, visitors and authorised users.

Access control for multiple entry points with smartphones and remote controls

Multiple sites or entry points, always under control

ACCESS lets you manage multiple entry points, even across different locations, from the same dashboard. It's the ideal solution when you need to maintain centralised control and operational visibility without having to intervene on-site for every change.

Why ACCESS is different

Retrofit plug&play

Digitise existing entry points without replacing the system and without introducing complex new infrastructure.

No network configuration

Built-in LTE with included SIM: ACCESS goes online as soon as it's powered on, with no router or manual setup.

Native multi-access

App, Bluetooth, remote controls, PIN, badges and licence plate recognition coexist in a single access control system.

Centralised permissions

Each user can have precise rules and limits that automatically apply to all linked access methods.

Complete traceability

Every access attempt is logged and visible in the web admin area.

Control nearby and remotely

Open in proximity or at a distance and always maintain operational governance of the entry point.

Simple web area

Manage sites, entry points, users and groups from a computer, without complex management software.

Easy to propose

1Control can connect directly to ACCESS for remote diagnostic support in after-sales service.

Even remote controls become smart

ACCESS can integrate WHY remote controls to bring even traditional methods into the same permissions logic.

You associate the remote control with a specific user and it automatically inherits the days, times and limits already set. No separate configuration, no parallel management.

Smart remote control 1Control ACCESS

Smart keypad for PIN, badges and employee cards

The smart keypad extends the system with PIN, card and badge access, maintaining the same simple installation experience and the same centralised management for the organisation. It's compatible with existing employee badges, both NFC and RFID, so the company doesn't have to buy new ones or manage duplicate badges.

Permissions remain customisable per user, with time slots, validity days, access monitoring and immediate remote revocation.

Smart keypad 1Control ACCESS

Plug&play licence plate recognition in the same access control system

ACCESS can manage one or more cameras with licence plate recognition to automate vehicular access without losing control and traceability. This module also remains simple and plug&play: it integrates into the system without requiring NVR or complex video infrastructure.

A licence plate linked to a user also automatically follows the same authorisations set for app, badge, PIN or remote control.

Cameras with licence plate recognition integrated with ACCESS
ACCESS continues to work even without internet

Complete control, even offline

ACCESS keeps a local copy of authorisations, so it continues to work even without an Internet connection. Authorised users can keep entering with their assigned methods, while changes made during the offline period are synchronised as soon as the device comes back online.

For the installer channel there's an added advantage: 1Control can connect directly to the system for remote diagnostic support.

The solution for different scenarios

Businesses

Employees, suppliers and operational access to manage with precise rules.

Logistics centres

Warehouses, drivers and access points to coordinate across multiple entry points.

Municipalities and restricted traffic zones

Controlled vehicle access to restricted areas.

Gyms and Condominiums

Authorisation-based access, recurring users and entry monitoring.

For those who want to eliminate remote controls and use their smartphone to open gates and more, this product is terrific. Very easy to install, I would say that it borders on banality, it is so simple. A guide follows you step by step in the installation and does not require electrical interventions. I have searched and tried many, many products but no one has satisfied me like this [...]

With a single device that I keep in the dashboard of the car I got to be able to open the gate of the house, the gate of the work, the gate of the mother and, unbelievably, of the mother-in-law! Very well done!

Humbert T.  -  logo googleplay

I would say very useful with a negligible cost, if you consider that a remote control costs 30 €, very easy installation, what about if I had another gate I would do the same thing!

Sssimonesss  -  logo appstore

Very convenient application when maybe you can't carry the radio controls (bike) with you. Impeccable assistance in solving problems. Thank you

Mauro C.  -  logo googleplay

I bought 2 Solo, 1 Solo Kit (for an old control unit for overhead doors) and 2 Why remote controls. Punctual delivery, complete instructions, quick and easy installation, immediate and comprehensive assistance for connecting the Solo Kit. Everything works perfectly: congratulations to all the 1Control staff !!

Jack C.  -  logo appstore

There are those who think that the remote control is much more practical, but after trying it and thinking about it now I understand that it does much more than make your gate / shutter smart by allowing it to be opened with Smartphone via bluetooth: changing about 1-2 remote controls a year in the family for € 20-25 each, its convenience over the years is immediately evident [...]

Trifone M.  -  logo amazon

I purchased 1Control and I open, through the app, a condominium gate and a shutter of a box directly from my iPhone or through the Apple Watch and it works very well and I also want to report the great availability and competence of the technical support.

Paul M.  -  logo appstore

Excellent product and assistance always ready to help and present. I had a problem that they helped me solve in no time.

Stefan P.  -  logo googleplay

The guide for copying the remote control is easy and crystal clear. Very comfortable the new possibility to choose the password!
I have connected 3 gates and have already shared access with the garage I rent. So I don't have to give him my remote anymore!

Mary Anne  -  logo appstore

Great product really useful. I copied two remote controls for gate and garage door. With the gate everything worked immediately, for the overhead door he asked me to press a button on the control unit and then it worked. Really very comfortable, I use it a lot when I go out on my bike. Recommended.

Paul  -  logo amazon

Between those at home and those in the office now I'm filling up with remote controls .. Having the ability to delete them thanks to an app is fantastic!

Gabriela H.  -  logo googleplay

Works as per description. Even with Apple Watch it works great. Gorgeous product and very well cared for packaging.

loryyyyyyy  -  logo appstore

I gave it to my husband who loves these contraptions and it's fabulous. Very useful and for what he was paid he looks like him even when compared to more expensive products.

Nicky  -  logo amazon

Simply fantastic! I still don't understand how I managed to do without it all these years !!! Easy installation

Marc M.  -  logo googleplay

Convenient app - open gate and garage all from your phone. And if you have several gates, home, work, etc., you do everything from one device instead of having several remote controls. Really well thought out!

Fra19837564  -  logo appstore

Nice product, does what it says. You can open up to 4 gates by copying the remote control with the app. I put the gate and the overhead door (they are 10 meters from each other). I placed it in the driveway as it is also resistant to water. We all use it in the family and the remote control continues to work, really convenient. Recommended product. Amazon ships as fast as ever.

Rita  -  logo amazon

Very satisfied. What I needed. Very comfortable and very easy to use and to assemble, thanks also to the assistance.

Harry F.  -  logo googleplay

I have been using this device for 3 years now and I am fully satisfied with the purchase. The second generation also has a better reach which facilitates opening / closing even in less than optimal conditions. I use it for 430 and 860 MHz radio controls and the duplication procedure worked the first time without any problem. Highly recommended.

Damian G.  -  logo amazon

I was enthusiastic about the product that is simple to use but above all easy to install, it immediately recognized my two remote controls and it works great. I highly recommend the product.

Efrem B.  -  logo googleplay

It worked with my two remote controls, one original Faac from about 20 years ago and also with the other, from the same period. The bluetooth works up to almost 20 meters. Convenient being able to share accesses, the time period and view the access log from the app. Installation is fairly straightforward, and the app works well on both Android and iOS.
