Wall Mount Keypad Reader
Keypads are an important element of access control solutions for commercial facilities. These keypads are a great choice for controlling electric strikes, electromagnetic locks, security systems or other types of openings requiring on/off or momentary control outputs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a wall mount keypad reader?
A wall mount keypad reader is an access control device installed on the wall that unlocks an electrified strike, maglock, or panic device when the correct code is entered. At National Lock Supply, we provide keypad readers for commercial access control systems.
How do they differ from standalone keypad locks?
Keypad readers don’t have their own latch or bolt. Instead, they connect to electrified door hardware, unlike standalone mechanical or electronic keypad locks.
What power source do they require?
Most operate on 12V or 24V DC low-voltage power, supplied by an access control power supply.
Can they store multiple codes?
Yes. Many allow multiple user codes, making them suitable for multi-tenant or staff access.
Are wall mount readers ADA compliant?
Yes, when installed at proper height and paired with ADA-compliant hardware such as lever locks or panic bars.
Are weather-resistant models available?
Yes. Outdoor-rated keypad readers feature weatherproof housings for exterior installations.
Where are they commonly used?
They are standard in warehouses, offices, schools, and secured commercial entrances.
Can they integrate with key systems?
Yes. Many connect to access panels, electric strikes, or maglocks as part of a larger access control system.

Brushed Aluminum, Stainless Steel, and Black housings are common.
