Hundure Dormitory Access Control Management
Throw Your Physical Card Away!
QR Code makes your access more convenient!
Background
XXX University is a comprehensive university located in suburbs and has almost 4,000 students. The university provides separate dormitories for male and female students, which are furnished with security systems, air-conditioned facilities, washing machines, drinking fountains and television.
Like most student dormitories, each dormitory door is restricted by an access controller, and residents must swipe the access cards to enter and exit. Recently, there have been some security issues in the dormitory. For example, only one resident swipes the card, but many residents follows him to enter and exit. Sometimes the door is left ajar, making it easy for outsiders to break in. The most serious security problem is tailgating. Break-in and tailgating can result in theft and endanger life. Specially, the female dormitory only has access control at the main door, and the security is insufficient.
In addition, the residents have to swiped the access control card to enter and exit the dormitory, and the student ID card and the traffic card were not integrated together, which was not convenient enough. And the current access control controllers are all stand-alone, which need to be set up on site and are not easy to manage. Finally, physical access cards are easily forgotten, so alternative access credentials are critical.
To improve the security dormitories, a new system and new access control machines are surveyed. Hundure dormitory management solution is recommended. QR Code controllers are installed in the main door of all dormitories. In addition, each female dormitory is equipped with two tripod turnstiles (Entry and Exit) with QR Code readers to solve the problem of personnel tailgating and intrusion and improve the security. When the resident forgets to bring the card, a time-limited access QR Code can be applied for unlocking the door. The dormitory access control card, student ID card, and transportation card are all in one, making it more convenient to use. Hundure delivers fully integrated, bespoke access control solutions for modern student residence, and dormitory.

Hundure QR Code Solution Enables 24/7 Package Pickup for Apartment Residents
QR Code locker management solution for retrieving packages at any time and deterring incidents of package theft
Background
XXX House is a 30-room apartment near the subway station, very popular with office workers. Like most property staffs, XXX Housing property staff is responsible for common area maintenance, rent collection, visit management and package management. Additionally, he is on duty Monday through Friday, 9:00am to 6:00pm. Most residents retrieve packages while property staff is on duty. Some residents didn’t return home before the property staff got off work, so they had to wait until the next day to pick up the package. Unretrieved packages must be stored in a store room for several days if residents are traveling on business or on vacation.
Since the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, residents have purchased goods quite often through the Internet resulting in a rapid increase in the volume of packages. Due to increased the volume of packages, some packages had to be left on the aisles, which caused the potential for packages to be mistaken or stolen. Moreover, the unretrieved packages had to be kept on the store room during night. Therefore, the store room was filled with unretreived packages, which was a big problem.
In order to solve these issues, the residents needs a solution for 24/4 package retrieval, package storing and theft-proof. Hundure Locker Management System, therefore, was recommended. A cabinet with 50 lockers is located next to the property staff room. The property staff only needs to put the received package into the locker, and send the locker number and one-off QR code to the residents. The resident can scan the received QR Code to pick up the package anytime. The package was locked in the locker which can reduce the risk of theft. Since the system was installed, residents no longer have to suffer from package theft or wait for the next day to retrieve their packages.
Project Requirements
Hardware:
- A locker controller is required to control the locks of lockers next to the property staff room.
- A QR Code reader is required to read the one-off QR Code to release the lock of locker with a designated number.
Software:
- The system can assign the locker numbers for storing the resident packages.
- The system can send the locker number and one-off QR Code for resident’s package retrieval.

Hundure QR Code Access Control Solution for 24/7 Fitness Club Management
Open 24 Hours with Higher Security
and Minimal Manpower!
Background
XXX is a membership fitness club located in a community sports center. Like most fitness clubs, it was open from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. The club has faced some impacts since the COVID-19 pandemic. First, the decline in membership led to a significant drop in revenue. In addition, members were more concerned about the safety and hygiene of the club’s environment. Third, Some members came to the club near closing time due to shifts or overtime work. It was difficult for them to enjoy the fun of fitness in the limited time before closing. Therefore, members wanted to extend the original openning hours to 24 hours. Another, the club had only the front door to control the access and no barrier stood between the front door and the fitness facility area. It was easy for members to bring their friends to use the fitness facility or share their member cards to others. Finally, physical membership cards were easy to lose, resulting in increased new card issuance costs.
How to create a safe and hygienic environment and to satisfy existing members and attract new members was the primary challenge. Another challenge was how to prevent members from sharing their cards with others. Finally, no staff will be there during 10:00pm to 6:00am when the club opens 24 hours. Therefore, how to create a safe environment is a must.
After the holistic evaluation, the club decided to extend its opening hours to 24 hours without the need for more staff and purchase a new access control system. The card-free and touch-free QR Code-based access control system was recommended for this project. No staff is on duty from 10:00 pm to 6:00am. During that period, therefore, the access from the front door is controlled and members are required to scan the QR code to enter and exit. Additionally, the club increased three access points to enhance the security. A door was installed between the front door and the fitness facility area to control the access and prevent anti-passback and tailgating. The other two access points were set to control the access of man locker room door and woman locker room door to avoid the careless intruding and reducre the belonging lost. Every door requires scanning a QR Code to enter.
A high security 24/7 fitness environment was acheived after installing Hundure access control system. QR Code authentication helps to boost revenues as there is no cost for providing and managing membership cards and it stops members sharing fitness membership cards with non-members.
Project Requirements
Hardware:
- The multi-door access control panel was required to control the club front door, the fitness facility area entrance, the office door and locker room doors.
- QR Code readers are required to read the QR Code displayed on smartphone to unlock the door of the controlled area.
Software:
- The system can be set the staff and member access authorizations and issue the QR Code credential.
