Access control systems built for single-family homes

There was a time when unlocking your home or gate with your phone sounded like science fiction. Now, those once-futuristic conveniences are everyday expectations for modern homeowners.

Access control has evolved far beyond the humble key. A guest arrives while you're away and steps inside using a temporary code you created earlier. A side entrance to a garden studio or cellar can be secured and unlocked with just a tap on your phone. A car approaches, and the gate recognises the licence plate and opens automatically.

This is the new standard in single-family home design: intuitive, secure, and built around real-life convenience, all thanks to smart access control systems. But how can we produce these homes of the future? It all starts with smart access control.

How the My2N App Works for Your Whole Home

The My2N App connects every door, gate, and user—bringing convenience, control, and security right to your smartphone. It’s at the heart of 2N’s smart access control systems. Bluetooth-based mobile access is powered by our own WaveKey technology. It’s unique, especially in terms of adaptive algorithms and RSSi signal trend analysis. This means that the reader will only open for phones that are approaching.

Mobile access modes

The 4 modes of access allow you to vary mobile access according to user needs.

• Tap in-app

• Touch mode

• Motion mode

• Card mode

These four modes ensure your access control systems adapt to every resident while still supporting powerful access control integrations with leading smart-home platforms.

Convenient entry to your property

In single-family homes, access is most often needed at the walk-in gate or front door. That’s why these entrances are typically equipped with a 2N intercom featuring a built-in Bluetooth reader with our inbuilt Wavekey technology. With this setup, there’s no need to take out your phone—just walk up and touch the access control reader. As long as your phone is nearby, in your pocket or bag, the door will unlock instantly.

Secure every corner of your property

The same technology also extends to side doors, garden studios, back entrances, cellars, guesthouses, and even barns. Whatever needs protecting can be locked, unlocked, and monitored through the My2N App as part of your smart access control system.

Every door becomes part of the system. Every access point can be controlled from anywhere in the world. That depth of coverage is exactly why today’s homeowners expect access control systems that are both scalable and future-proof.

Hands-free driving access: Phone or licence plate

With the My2N App, arriving home is effortless. Residents can use their smartphone to open a garage or gate before even stepping out of the car. Prefer an entirely hands-free experience? 2N readers integrate seamlessly with Axis’ licence plate recognition cameras—so the system recognises your vehicle and opens the gate automatically.

Whether you’re pulling into the driveway with shopping bags or returning from a long trip, 2N’s smart access control systems mean no delays and no digging for remotes.

Let the right people - even when you’re not home!

The My2N App isn’t just for the people who live in the home—it’s just as powerful for managing guests.

Residents can create temporary QR codes or PIN codes for friends, extended family, and trusted service providers, such as cleaners, contractors, or dog walkers. Codes can be set to work once or on a recurring schedule and revoked instantly if needed.

It’s guest access made easy—another benefit of smart access control systems that put you in control, wherever you are.
