Architect II® Standard Keypad
End-to-end security by design.
Architect® II delivers robust security engineered to evolve alongside emerging threats. Its EAL6+ certified Secure Element and advanced security mechanisms safeguard cryptographic keys, protect communications and secure firmware updates. Dual tamper protection against opening and removal, combined with secure key-erasure mechanisms, adds another layer of physical protection. SSCP® v2 certified and designed to meet Cyber Resilience Act requirements, Architect® II provides advanced, future-ready security.
An intuitive keypad. Inclusive by design.
Combining sleek design, intuitive operation and accessibility, the Architect® II capacitive keypad delivers effortless PIN entry with customisable backlighting to suit any environment. Designed with inclusivity in mind, it features a tactile marker on the number 5 key and distinctive tactile contours around the Confirm and Cancel keys, making them easier to identify by touch. A dedicated accessibility mode, independently activated by visually impaired users, further enhances the experience, making secure access more intuitive and accessible to everyone.
Unprecedented hardware and software modularity.
Architect® II combines modular hardware with embedded GraphCore™ intelligence. Its versatile architecture accommodates up to two internal modules, including an optional 125 kHz module for seamless technology migration, or a combination of one internal and one external module. With evolutive software and activatable features, the reader adapts to emerging security requirements and new applications without systematically replacing hardware.
Versatile mounting. Effortless installation.
Designed to accommodate a wide range of installation requirements, Architect® II mounts directly onto European and US standard electrical boxes or can be surface-mounted on walls. Its universal mounting plate, sleek design and quarter-turn locking mechanism streamline installation and maintenance, ensuring seamless integration and a refined finish in any environment.
Built to withstand the toughest conditions.
Engineered for both indoor and outdoor environments, the Architect® II keypad reader offers IK09 impact resistance and IPX5 protection against water jets. Operating reliably in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C, it ensures dependable performance and service continuity, even in the most demanding conditions.
Make every reader uniquely yours.
With 14 individually addressable LEDs, Architect® II enables custom lighting animations or predefined LED signatures to tailor visual feedback to every application. Take personalisation further by adding your company logo or choosing the Custom Cover accessory for a distinctive material finish. Every reader becomes a natural extension of your brand identity.
