Johnson Controls, the global pioneer in smart, healthy, and sustainable buildings, introduces Tyco Kantech KT-2, an adaptable two-door controller that is cost-effective and easy to install and operate for small to medium-sized businesses.

This new door controller expands the Johnson Controls line of multi-door control solutions purposely designed for businesses with needs ranging from one door to thousands. The KT-2 seamlessly integrates into OpenBlue, the dynamic platform for connected, safe, and sustainable building solutions from Johnson Controls. 

Standalone and integrated system

A versatile solution, the KT-2 can be used as either a standalone system or integrated with the EntraPass Security Management Software to leverage Wi-Fi connectivity, providing a cost-effective solution for challenging access control installations that typically require extensive cabling.

KT-2 installation is quick and seamless by using an intuitive wizard-based platform

When in standalone mode, the KT-2 door controller can be managed through a dedicated web browser, providing a user-friendly, feature-rich alternative for two-door security without the need for full security management software. Installers of the KT-2 will find deployment quick and seamless by using an intuitive wizard-based platform that guides them through the set-up and installation process.

Compatible with EntraPass software

Designed with small to medium businesses in mind, the KT-2 is compatible with EntraPass software (v. 8.40 or higher) which utilizes the full set of features that the KT-2 offers. The capacitive touch-sensitive screen provides one-button programming for plug-and-play installation.

The KT-2 supports two readers, ioModules and other KT controllers such as the KT-1 and KT-400. When paired with Kantech ioSmart readers, the KT-2 provides end-to-end encryption, ensuring secure communication between access control devices. The KT-2 door controller includes a five-year warranty.
