Handheld Access Control Solutions
Extend Synergis access control beyond fixed door readers with XPressEntry.
XPressEntry brings Synergis access control wherever a badge needs to be checked. Handheld readers sync directly with the existing Synergis database to validate credentials and biometrics anywhere a fixed reader isn't practical: remote gates, construction entrances, lobbies, buses, muster points, event venues, and patrol routes. The same cardholders, the same permissions, and the same audit trail already managed in Synergis are available in the field, with full cellular, WiFi, and offline functionality.
XPressEntry supports the broadest range of badge technologies in the industry, plus fingerprint and facial biometrics.

XPressEntry handheld badge and biometric readers extend the Synergis access control system with mobile verification, mustering, guard tours, and much more.
Badge and Biometric Verification
Bring Synergis-grade access control to any location on site with handheld badge and biometric verification.
-
Reads any badge technology already deployed in Synergis
-
Adds fingerprint and facial recognition for multi-factor security
-
Syncs in real time with the Synergis cardholder database
-
Displays cardholder name and photo directly on the device
-
Records every ENTRY / EXIT activity across the entire site
-
Operates over cellular, WiFi, and fully offline as needed
Security teams can verify any Synergis cardholder from anywhere on site using XPressEntry handhelds, including remote gates, temporary construction entrances, bus boarding points, lobbies, or anywhere a permanent reader isn't practical. The moment a badge or biometric is scanned, XPressEntry checks permissions against Synergis and displays the cardholder's name, photo, and a clear Access Granted or Access Denied result. For high-security areas, fingerprint or facial recognition adds multi-factor verification on the same handheld. Every scan is recorded and syncs back to Synergis in real time, or stores locally and uploads when connectivity returns.
Emergency Evacuation Mustering
Account for every person during a real emergency and meet OSHA or regional evacuation requirements with confidence.
-
Live electronic roll call from any assembly point on site
-
Syncs in real time with the Synergis cardholder database
-
Instantly identifies who has reached safety and who has not
-
Streamlines emergency action plan and OSHA-style compliance
-
Operates over cellular, WiFi, and fully offline as needed
-
Improves preparedness and accelerates first responder action
When an alarm sounds, paper rosters and clipboards aren't enough. XPressEntry turns any handheld into a live mustering station that pulls directly from the Synergis cardholder list. Safety administrators scan badges as people arrive at assembly areas, and the handheld instantly shows who has reached safety and who is still missing. That information can be shared with first responders within seconds, not minutes, to focus search and rescue where it's needed most. The same workflow runs for planned drills, helping organizations document compliance with their emergency action plan and continuously improve readiness.
Corporate Events & Training
Use the Synergis badges employees already carry to manage attendance and access at corporate events, training, and offsite gatherings.
-
Sets up a new event or training session in just minutes
-
Tracks ENTRY / EXIT using the Synergis badges already issued
-
Works at any on-site, off-site, or remote event location
-
Restricts access to invited attendees only with full reporting
-
Stores audit-ready attendance records for any future review
-
Operates over cellular, WiFi, and fully offline as needed
XPressEntry lets event organizers and trainers use the Synergis cardholder database already in place to control who attends and to capture every arrival and departure. Handhelds scan badges or biometrics at the entrance for ENTRY / EXIT tracking, with time and date stamps stored securely for any future audit. Whether the occasion is a quarterly all-hands, a holiday party, mandatory safety training, or an off-site customer event, attendance management goes wherever the event does, with cellular, WiFi, and offline operation that works in conference centers, parking lots, and remote facilities alike.
Entry / Exit Tracking
Track every arrival and departure across confined spaces, remote gates, shuttle boarding, and any other location a fixed reader can't reach.
-
Verifies Synergis credentials at any on-site or off-site point
-
Captures a time-stamped audit trail of every entry and exit
-
Syncs in real time with the Synergis access control database
-
Shows live facility occupancy at a glance from any handheld
-
Covers confined spaces, remote gates, shuttles, and lobbies
-
Operates over cellular, WiFi, and fully offline as needed
XPressEntry extends Synergis access control into the locations fixed door readers were never designed to cover. Handheld readers verify Synergis credentials and capture a time-stamped record of every arrival and departure at confined spaces such as utility vaults and tanks, at remote gates and construction perimeters, at shuttle and bus boarding points, and at visitor lobbies during peak traffic. Every scan syncs back to Synergis in real time, or stores locally and uploads when connectivity returns, giving security and safety teams a complete, live picture of who is on site and where, anywhere across the facility.
Guard Tour
Bring guard patrol management into the same XPressEntry handhelds already used for Synergis verification, mustering, and access control.
-
Schedules recurring patrol routes from a central web console
-
Visualizes GPS patrol activity on interactive real-time maps
-
Captures photos, video, audio, and notes during incidents
-
Supports RFID, NFC, QR codes, and barcodes at checkpoints
-
Sends email alerts for missed checkpoints or overdue patrols
-
Runs patrols offline with automatic sync upon reconnection
XPressEntry Guard Tour brings patrol tracking, checkpoint verification, and incident reporting into the same rugged handhelds security teams already use for Synergis access control. Administrators schedule patrol routes from the XPressEntry Web Console, and guards authenticate with their existing Synergis credentials before each tour, creating a verified record of who patrolled where and when. Checkpoints can use RFID, NFC, QR codes, or barcodes to match the security level of each area. Guards capture photos, video, audio, and notes for incidents in real time, and email alerts notify supervisors of missed checkpoints or overdue patrols.
Features and Benefits
Extend the Synergis access control system already in place with XPressEntry handheld readers.
-
Integrates natively with the Synergis access control system
-
Strengthens physical security and personnel accountability
-
Adds patrol management without deploying a separate platform
-
Helps satisfy OSHA and regional workplace safety requirements
-
Scales to any site or workforce, online or fully offline
-
Reduces real-world security risk and financial exposure
Real workplaces don't fit neatly inside the footprint of fixed door readers. Security teams patrol parking lots, remote gates, and construction zones. Safety officers run evacuation drills across multiple buildings. Event organizers manage attendees at venues that aren't connected to corporate infrastructure. Guards walk patrol routes through areas with limited connectivity. Each of these scenarios creates gaps that radios, paper rosters, and manual logs cannot close. XPressEntry fills those gaps by extending Synergis access control into the hands of the people doing the work, with the same database, the same permissions, and the same audit trail Synergis administrators already rely on. The result is better security, faster emergency response, simpler compliance, and a stronger return on the access control investment already in place. Please visit https://telaeris.com/ to learn more.
