Access Control Accessories
Access Control Accessories in Pakistan — Complete Hardware for Every Door
A biometric terminal or card reader is only one part of a complete access control system. To make any door fully secure and functional, you need the right accessories — the electric lock that physically secures the door, the power supply that keeps everything running during a power cut, the exit button that lets people leave safely, the RFID card that identifies the user, and the mounting bracket that holds everything in place. Without these components, no access control system works.
IOT Systems supplies the complete range of access control accessories in Pakistan — every peripheral, fitting, and consumable you need to build, expand, or upgrade any access control installation. All accessories are sourced from authorized manufacturers and guaranteed compatible with the biometric terminals and access controllers we supply.

Complete Accessories Range — What We Supply
Electromagnetic Locks (EM Locks)
The most widely used electric locking device in access control. An electromagnetic lock uses a powerful magnet to hold the door closed — the magnet is energized when the door should be locked and releases instantly when access is granted. Available in holding forces from 280kg to 600kg. Suitable for single doors, double doors, glass doors, and metal doors. Fail-safe by default — releases automatically during power failure for safe evacuation.
Drop Bolt Locks (Electric Bolt Locks)
A heavy-duty electric locking device where a solid steel bolt drops into a strike plate to physically lock the door. Significantly stronger than EM locks for high-security applications. Available in single and double bolt versions. Used on server room doors, strong room entries, and any door requiring maximum physical security. Fail-secure option available — stays locked during power failure.
Electric Door Strikes
A flush-mounted electric strike that replaces the standard door keep — the latch or bolt from the door handle locks into it and releases electrically. Allows doors to remain closed and latched at all times while being electrically released for authorized access. Compatible with standard wooden and metal door frames. Ideal for offices, apartments, and any door with an existing handle-and-latch mechanism.
Exit Push Buttons (Request to Exit)
A wall-mounted button that allows people inside a secured area to exit without using a card or biometric — pressing the button releases the electric lock for a set time. Essential for fire safety compliance and emergency egress. Available in standard push button, touchless infrared, and break-glass emergency versions. Installed on the secure side of every access-controlled door.
Door Contacts (Magnetic Door Sensors)
A two-part magnetic sensor that detects whether a door is open or closed. Sends a signal to the access controller whenever the door state changes — enabling forced door alarms, door-open-too-long alerts, and real-time door status monitoring. Essential for any access control installation requiring security event logging and alarm integration.
RFID Cards and Credentials
- EM 125kHz Proximity Cards — The standard HID-compatible prox card. Simple tap-to-read. Compatible with all 125kHz readers including Soyal, Virdi UBio AC series, and most budget access controllers.
- MIFARE 13.56MHz Smart Cards — Encrypted smart cards offering significantly higher security than 125kHz prox. Compatible with Virdi UBio, Suprema, HID Signo, ICT, and most modern readers.
- HID Cards — Genuine HID-branded proximity and smart cards for HID reader systems. Available in clamshell, ISO credit card, and key fob formats.
- Key Fobs — Compact RFID credentials in a key ring format — same technology as cards in a smaller, more convenient form factor. Available in 125kHz and 13.56MHz variants.
- Proximity Tags — Small self-adhesive RFID tags for attaching to existing items such as vehicle windscreens, laptops, or equipment for asset tracking and access logging.
Power Supply Units (PSU) with Battery Backup
A dedicated power supply unit for access control systems that provides clean, stable 12V or 24V DC power to electric locks, access controllers, and readers — with built-in battery backup that keeps the system running for several hours during mains power failure. Essential for every professional access control installation. Available in 3A, 5A, and 10A output versions to match the power requirements of small, medium, and large door setups.
Mounting Brackets and Installation Hardware
- U-Bracket — For mounting EM locks on frameless glass doors. Holds the lock body at 90 degrees to engage with the armature plate on the glass door panel.
- L-Bracket — For mounting EM locks on outward-opening doors where the lock cannot be mounted directly on the door frame.
- ZL-Bracket — Combination Z and L bracket for doors where the lock needs to be offset both vertically and horizontally from the door frame.
- Z-Bracket — For mounting on doors with a gap between the door frame and the door panel.
- C-Bracket — For specific door configurations requiring a curved or inset mounting position.
- Wall Plates and Back Boxes — Flush mounting plates and back boxes for readers, keypads, and exit buttons ensuring clean, professional installation on all wall types.
Why Every Component Matters in Access Control
Many organizations install a high-quality biometric terminal and then connect it to a cheap, incompatible lock or a basic power supply with no battery backup — and then wonder why the system fails. Here is why every component in your access control system needs to be the right specification:
Wrong lock holding force — an EM lock with too low a holding force can be physically forced open. A 280kg lock on a high-traffic main entrance is inadequate — 500kg or 600kg is the right specification.
No battery backup on PSU — when Karachi or Lahore experiences a power outage, every door in your facility unlocks simultaneously if the PSU has no battery. This is the most common access control failure we see in Pakistan.
Wrong bracket for the door type — using a standard L-bracket on a frameless glass door causes the EM lock to misalign, reducing holding force by up to 70% and causing premature hardware failure.
Non-genuine RFID cards — cheap non-genuine cards have inconsistent read range, short lifespans, and can corrupt access controller memory. Always use the card technology specified for your reader.
IOT Systems supplies everything together — the right lock for your door type, the right PSU for your system size, the right cards for your readers, and the right brackets for your installation — with engineer-verified compatibility on every project.

Frequently Asked Questions — Access Control Accessories in Pakistan
What is the difference between an EM lock and a drop bolt lock?
An electromagnetic lock uses magnetic force to hold the door closed and releases instantly when power is removed — making it fail-safe and ideal for fire evacuation compliance. A drop bolt lock uses a physical steel bolt for a more robust mechanical lock — typically fail-secure, meaning it stays locked during power failure. Use EM locks on general office doors and drop bolt locks on high-security rooms like server rooms and vaults.
What power supply do I need for my access control system?
The PSU rating depends on how many electric locks and devices are connected. A single EM lock typically draws 500mA at 12V. A 3A PSU supports up to 4-5 devices comfortably with battery backup. For larger installations, use a 5A or 10A PSU. IOT Systems engineers will specify the correct PSU for your system during the site survey.
What is the difference between 125kHz and MIFARE 13.56MHz cards?
125kHz proximity cards (EM prox) are the older technology — simple, widely compatible, but easily cloned with cheap devices. MIFARE 13.56MHz smart cards use encryption and are significantly more secure — cloning requires specialized hardware. For any new installation in 2024 and beyond, always specify MIFARE or DESFire cards for meaningful security.
Can I use any RFID card with my Virdi UBio or Suprema terminal?
Not all cards are compatible with all readers. Virdi UBio and Suprema readers support specific card frequencies and formats — always use the card technology specified in the terminal’s datasheet. IOT Systems supplies the correct cards for every terminal we install and can advise on card compatibility before any purchase.
Do you supply accessories for projects outside Karachi?
Yes. IOT Systems delivers access control accessories to all major cities in Pakistan including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Hyderabad, Peshawar, and Quetta. For large projects, bulk delivery with engineer support is available nationwide.
