An enterprise door access controller that has the ability to manage up to four doors and connect building security infrastructure—including gates, turnstiles, and barriers—through Touchstar’s Evolution access control software.
The Evolution Access Controller is designed for organisations managing single or multi-site estates where scalable, reliable access control is required. It is suited to environments where security demands are increasing and access control infrastructure needs to expand without adding unnecessary hardware complexity.
Managed through Evolution
The Evolution Access Controller is fully managed throughEvolution,Touchstar’s Access Control Software.
Streamlined Multi-Door Control: Touchstar access controllers manage up to four doors from a single unit, delivering a cost-effective, centralised deployment that drastically reduces hardware footprint and cabling costs. The system also integrates seamlessly with external hardware, including infrared sensors, automated gates, turnstiles, and vehicle barriers.
Seamless Network Integration & High-Capacity Credentials
The system integrates seamlessly into existing Touchstar Evolution software, allowing all connected hardware to be managed from a single platform across one or multiple sites. From this central interface, administrators can configure users, assign permissions, and monitor real-time access activity. This high-capacity, secure architecture pairs advanced multi-credential tracking with robust network connectivity to ensure seamless site administration and perimeter safety.
Network Connectivity: Built with 10/100/1000 Base Ethernet TCP/IP connectivity alongside optional dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi.
On Site Diagnostics: Built in Bluetooth for local engineering diagnostics.
High Capacity Credentials: Supports over 100,000 card credentials with full PIN authentication.
Reader Compatibility: Compatible with Proximity, HID iClass, MIFARE DESFire, magnetic stripe and barcode credentials.
Physical Tamper Protection: Features dual tamper detection using both an enclosure switch and optical sensor.
The Touchstar Evolution Access Controller carries the official Made in Britain trademark, confirming its UK design and manufacture.
This accreditation reflects recognised standards of quality, engineering and reliability while supporting British manufacturing.
