Floor button restriction
Lift car floor buttons enabled only after a valid card or biometric credential is presented in the car.
Elevator access control in Pakistan
Resco installs elevator access control that restricts lift floor buttons to a valid card or biometric credential, for office towers, hospitals and residential buildings across Pakistan.
Overview
Floor-by-floor control on the same credential as the rest of the building
Elevator access control in Pakistan is usually specified where a building has tenants, departments or floors that should not be freely reachable from every lift car, such as a multi-tenant office tower, a hospital with restricted wards, or a residential building with private floors. Resco installs elevator control that enables floor buttons only for a valid card, so a lift car can carry a person only to the floors their credential permits.
Because elevator access control runs on the same platform as pass-card and biometric access control elsewhere in the building, a tenant, staff member or resident uses a single credential for the main entrance, restricted doors and the lift, rather than a separate system just for the elevator.
- Floor buttons enabled only by a valid card or biometric credential
- Suited to multi-tenant office towers, hospitals and residential buildings with restricted floors
- Runs on the same access-control platform and credential as the rest of the building
- Floor permissions set and changed by user group, without rewiring the lift car
Capabilities
What a Resco elevator access control installation covers
Resco fits elevator access control into a building's existing lift cars and access-control system.
Multi-tenant floor separation
Floor permissions set by tenant or department, so one credential cannot reach another tenant's floor.
Hospital ward restriction
Restricted floor access for wards and departments where only authorised staff or credentialed visitors should reach the floor by lift.
Residential floor privacy
Elevator access limited to a resident's own floor in buildings where floor privacy is required.
Shared credential platform
Elevator access control integrated with the building's existing card or biometric access-control system.
Lift car and controller wiring
Reader and controller installation within the lift car, coordinated with the lift manufacturer or maintenance contractor.
Integration
Elevator access control working with the rest of the building
Resco installs elevator access control as an extension of the building's wider access-control system.
- One card or biometric credential used for the main entrance, restricted doors and the lift
- Floor permissions and access logs managed on the same software as pedestrian access control
- Visitor management credentials that can be limited to a single floor for the duration of a visit
- Time and attendance and elevator access sharing the same credential database where a site combines both

How Resco delivers
How a Resco elevator access control project is delivered
Resco follows the same lifecycle for elevator access control as it does for its other access-control installations.
Assess
A site survey reviews the lift cars, existing access-control system and which floors need restriction.
Design
Reader and controller positioning within the lift car, and floor permission structure, are documented before installation.
Install and commission
Readers and controllers are installed in the lift car, coordinated with the lift contractor, and tested floor by floor.
Support
Optional maintenance keeps readers and floor permissions working, with training for the staff who manage credentials.
A card or biometric reader is installed inside the lift car. A valid credential enables only the floor buttons that credential is permitted to reach, rather than every floor being available to every passenger.
