Taking doors off schedule

When a door is off-schedule it

  • Ignores the door lock schedule

  • Is either locked or unlocked until it is returned to schedule

  • Allows access to users according to their access permissions

  • Can be manually returned to schedule by an admin at any time

  • Can be returned to schedule by an event trigger

  • Can be automatically returned to schedule at a specified time

A door can be taken off schedule by

  • Primary and secondary admins

  • Event triggers

During a lockdown all doors will be locked down regardless of whether they are on or off schedule

Example

A receptionist needs to step away from the reception for a moment, but the front door is unlocked. They can quickly take the door off schedule and lock it, so that the building is secure. Users with access permissions can still use a valid credential for access while the door is locked off schedule
