BioEntry W3
Outdoor-rated fingerprint reader for perimeter and gate access.
Overview
The BioEntry W3 is Suprema's IP65-rated outdoor fingerprint access reader, engineered to perform reliably in South Africa's harsh outdoor environments — from sun-baked factory gates to rain-exposed building perimeters. Featuring Suprema's proven fingerprint algorithm and support for Wiegand and OSDP output, it integrates with virtually any access control panel on the market. Compact and vandal-resistant (IK09), the BioEntry W3 is the go-to choice for boom gates, turnstiles, car parks and secure facility perimeters where a ruggedised, standalone reader is required.
