Access for visitors and staff
QR entry via WhatsApp
A visitor is coming to a 3:00 pm meeting. In two seconds, an employee sends them a QR code on WhatsApp, valid for 2 hours. The visitor scans it at the entrance and in the lift: no reception desk, no card, no app.
A new employee has access from day one, and when someone leaves, the administrator switches their access off with one click.
- 1
Write
The administrator adds a person by their WhatsApp number. They message the building’s WhatsApp Business number and pick an option from the menu.
- 2
Get your code
“Entry code” is a personal QR code. “Guest code” gets a start time and validity, e.g. 120 minutes, and is forwarded to the visitor on WhatsApp.
- 3
Scan
Scan the code at the lock or terminal. No app to install, no card.
Works via Space Engine with:
- Space Lock MAX
- Space Pad Pro
- Space Pad BIO (QR reader version)
Coming soon: a version for hotels and rentals, including long-term stays.
WhatsApp messages are handled by the WhatsApp Business operator; the feature is optional and can be switched off in fully on-premises deployments.
New access methods

Palm and vein scan
Hold your hand over the reader, no touching needed. The sensor reads the unique pattern of veins under the skin and checks that the hand is alive, so the method is very hard to fake with a photo or a copy. Recognition is fast, even with many users, and the system stores an encrypted template, not an image of the hand. Hygienic and convenient wherever security matters. Built in as standard in current SPACE locks and Pads with the camera module.
Bluetooth 6.0 (BLE) optional, on order
An optional Bluetooth 6.0 (BLE) module, available on order, adds two functions. Hands-free automatic opening: the user carries a wristband or clip with a BLE beacon, and when it comes within the set distance of the lock or Pad, the device opens the passage by itself, according to the assigned permissions and schedule; every opening is logged. This also suits autonomous devices such as robots, AGVs and vehicles that need the right to pass or drive through. Direct connection: the SPACE BMS Manager mobile app communicates with the lock or Pad locally over Bluetooth, without internet.
Accessibility
- Face or palm: touchless, with nothing to find or hold – convenient from a wheelchair, with limited hand mobility or with your hands full.
- Blind and low-vision users do not need to aim at a card reader: it is enough to face the terminal. The screen shows the result, which also helps deaf and hard-of-hearing people.
- Care homes, hospitals and schools: permissions and schedules per zone, every entry logged – carers keep exits under control.
- Biometrics only by choice: a card or QR code always remains available.
