Gatekeeper lock system

摘要

Disclosed is an electronic lock for a door having a locking mechanism, a file transfer and storage interface and programmable control circuit. This system also provides a communication interface and data transmission. The locking mechanism is coupled to the door and movable between a locked position in which the door opening is inhibited and an unlocked position in which the door is allowed to open. File transfer and storage interface and programmable control circuit is coupled to the gate and is operable to validate user credentials. The programmable control circuit is coupled to the gate and is operable to move the locking mechanism between the locked position and the unlocked position at least partially in response to user credentials read.
