Guardian vandal-resistant and Gibraltar bullet-resistant contactless proximity card readers by Farpointe Data, a DORMA Group company, are ideal for installations where more durability is required than with a standard proximity reader. According to Farpointe, they are becoming popular at schools, universities, correctional institutions, housing authorities, factories, hospitals and other locales where RFID proximity and smartcard readers can take a beating.
“The quality, durability and reliability of Farpointe Data’s Guardian and Gibraltar series readers translate into significant financial advantages,” said Scott Lindley, Farpointe Data president. “In situations that would damage conventional readers, rugged Guardian and Gibraltar Series readers keep performing. As a result, end users eliminate costly repairs or replacements and integrators avoid nuisance service calls. The bottom-line results are compelling: lower total cost of ownership and greater return on investment over the access control system’s useful life.”
