Two-wire switch and adapter

note

The two-wire switch and adapter is currently under development. Join the waiting list to become beta-tester as soon as we launch it.

The Kisi two-wire switch and adapter allow you to migrate to the Kisi platform at a minimal cost, and modernize your access control system while keeping your existing wiring.

  • Rip-and-replace: Save time and money by keeping your existing wiring
  • Enjoy all the benefits of an industry-leading access control solution with minimal installation costs
  • Scale easily and securely by adding new doors and users with just a few clicks
