One door. One identity. One uneditable log.
Every entry into the archive — and every aisle opening inside it — passes through Shengmei access control: card, fingerprint or PIN, checked against role-based permissions and written to a tamper-proof trail.
Four ways in — all of them logged.
Combine methods freely per zone: a card may open the archive door, while a fingerprint is still required to move a shelf.
RFID card
Staff cards double as archive IDs — borrowing, entry and shelf access share one identity.
Entry + Shelf
Fingerprint
Second-factor check for sensitive rooms and high-value aisles — no card lending possible.
High security
Password / PIN
Per-user codes for terminals, with automatic lockout after repeated failures.
Terminal
Visual verification
The terminal camera snapshots every login; control room can compare face to card remotely.
Evidence
The doorway that checks every folder by itself.
The RFID archive security gate uses high-performance channel antennas to identify tags passing through in fast, multi-label batches — detecting electronic tags in any direction across the sensing zone. An archive that has not been checked out triggers an immediate sound-light alarm with video linkage, while infrared sensors on both sides capture pedestrian flow in real time.

Who can do what — decided by role, not by habit.
The matrix is configured once with your archive office and enforced by the system on every terminal and aisle.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open archive room door | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | — Escorted |

| Borrow & return documents | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | — |

Restricted aisles are defined per bay group — for example personnel files in one section, financial records in another.
When something is wrong, the room locks itself.
Access control is wired into the shelving controllers, not bolted on. Alarms trigger physical responses without waiting for a person at a desk.
A log no one can quietly edit.
Every identity check, aisle movement and failed attempt is appended to a write-once trail with timestamp, user and device. Managers export it for internal audit or external inspection in one click.
