description: >
When to use: Electronic access control systems for managing pedestrian entry into commercial, institutional, and industrial buildings. Covers system architecture (standalone, networked, and cloud-managed), door controllers and panels, credential readers and credentials, electrified door hardware coordination, request-to-exit devices, door position switches, low-voltage power supplies with battery backup, controller and reader cabling, head-end software, user management and audit, fire alarm release interface, cybersecurity, and acceptance testing for swinging pedestrian doors.
− Not intended for: Video surveillance and intercom systems (separate standards); intrusion detection alarm systems (see UL 1076 burglar alarm systems); parking gate, vehicle barrier, and turnstile control; biometric-only systems without card or mobile credentials; mass notification and emergency communications (see [[sync/fire-alarm-systems]]); the door, frame, and electrified locking hardware itself (see [[sync/doors-frames-and-hardware]]); building automation systems integrated for environmental control (see [[sync/building-automation-system]]); telecommunications cabling backbone beyond the access control horizontal cabling.
