The Pyramid Product Line
A key differentiation between the Pyramid Series and other brands is the unique offering of proximity readers in the line. These include the P-300 Cascade Reader, one of the smallest doorframe readers available, and the P-600 Rocky Reader and Keypad (an industry first!) combining proximity and the stainless steel Essex keypad into a single, integrated package. Users will appreciate the small, ultra thin and attractive packaging of the Pyramid Series readers. Integrators and installing dealers will appreciate their single piece design, four-state LED (red, green, amber, and off), audio tone, industry standard Wiegand interface, lifetime warranties, potted weather and vandal resistant electronics - all at very competitive prices.
The Pyramid Series readers are complemented by a complete line of access credentials. The PSC-1 Standard Light Proximity Card features a lifetime warranty, while the dye sublimation printable ISO-thin PSM-2 Multi-Technology Proximity Card is available with a magentic stripe, and one of the smallest, most durable credentials available, the PSK-3 Proximity Key Ring Tag.
