@@bckpcz Canadian water hits a little differently than other places in the world. Also, on a legit note, orange and brown are naturally opposite each other when the sheathing is removed making for an easier alignment.
I was going to say the same thing. Always allow water a way out. That is why on the "waterproof" boxes you need to drill a small hole on the bottom as well to drain any water and or dew that will ALWAYS find a way in over time. 🤠👍
It's super cool how far Access has come since I got to work with the beta version a few years ago. The new Hubs are what we needed, but they were dead set on having DIN rail-mounted hubs and didn't understand having all the cables come back to a central location at the time.
I'm not sure what I find more interesting? The video itself or the comments below. You can tell who below has been doing these types of jobs for a while, verses those who haven't. I must say, I have never seen a KeyScan (dormakaba / Keyscan Aurora) being removed - they are rock solid systems and are at the top of every category you put them up against. I like to see dormakaba and ALGO products installed - these are two great Canadian companies and employ Canadians here at home. Amazing video as always though!
What a coincidence! I have an old Keyscan system (covering a single door) at the school I support and was thinking about how nice it would be to swap it out and expand the system (covering five doors) using Ubiquiti Protect running on a Cloudkey+. I look forward to the video covering installing the door strike mechanisms, particularly in metal doors!
When you say T568A is the 'best standard', why do you say that? Genuinely curious. Been using T568B for decades as 'standard' and it's mostly what I see in the field. Curious to know your thoughts as to why A is better. Thanks much!
That was more of a joke I knew it would cause people to comment lol. Ive always used T568A as that is how my grandfather taught me. It becomes a heated debate thats for sure. The only thing to remember is to use a standard and not make up your own code
Great job. I have a customer that has that useless Keyscan product installed. I will like rip it out an go all Unifi Access product. One day, when they are ready to move forward.
There’s a few access control systems we’re looking into and this one seems to be a top contender for us. Question - Each hub is able to control 8 doors. Are you able to link 2 hubs to a single account and have control to 16 doors? If I create a user, can they open any of the 16 doors with a single fob or card? Can’t seem to find a firm answer on this. Thanks in advance.
Hey, Did anyone see what device was being used for REX? I like the new access enterprise, but it only has enough ethernet ports for one IP reader per door. Im currently using a G2Pro for the entry, and a G2 in hand wave mode for exit. Thanks!
Hey, a quick question if anyone can answer it for me...Can I use 3rd party wired smart door locks with ubiquity's door access hub/reader setup? In theory, any smart door lock that requires 12-24Vs to operate should work with ubiquiti's access hub right? I'm asking because after researching a bit, I found only their electric strike and magnetic door locks to be reviewed with their door access accessories !
Hi!! Having problems adopting new thetas pro. Tried different hubs. It says ready to adopt I click adopt and then it says ready to adopt again. It is vicious cycle. My storage capacity seems to be close to Max could that be the issue. If not, any suggestions? UniFi forum is useless.
Because that would be the only upsell left for the U7 Enterprise. I went with the Pro Max as I wanted the dedicated radio for monitoring. the 4x4 wont do much TBH.
@MactelecomNetworks how unfortunate. In my opinion, that's a perfect combination for a single home. Do you have any other ideas on how to achieve the same thing with a g4 doorbell ?
Is this business hockey related, or why do they have all the hockey sweaters and sticks. You are in Canada though so makes sense. Also why in your opinion is A the better standard?¿
