Third-Generation NFC Reader with Keypad and Touch Pass for UniFi Access Door Control
The Ubiquiti UniFi Access Reader G3 Flex (UA-G3-FLEX-W) is a compact NFC card reader with an integrated keypad, Bluetooth for smartphone-based Touch Pass unlock, and IP55 weather resistance. It mounts at any door or gate where the UniFi Access system controls entry, giving users three ways to authenticate: tap an NFC card or fob, enter a PIN on the keypad, or hold their phone near the reader for a Touch Pass unlock.
The Reader G3 Flex is the third-generation compact reader in the UniFi Access lineup. It connects over PoE to a UniFi Access Hub, which handles the door lock relay and communicates with the UniFi Access controller. The reader itself is a credential input device - it reads the card, verifies via the hub, and the hub fires the lock. This separation means the reader at the door has no relay wiring that could be tampered with from outside.
Where the Reader G3 Flex Fits
- Office entry doors and suite entrances where employees badge in with NFC cards and visitors get temporary PIN codes or mobile credentials sent to their phone
- Exterior gates and building entries where IP55 weather resistance allows mounting outside without an enclosure and the keypad provides a backup when cards are forgotten
- Server rooms and restricted areas where the UniFi Access system logs every entry attempt with timestamp, user identity, and credential type for audit compliance
What the Reader G3 Flex Delivers
- NFC card/fob reader (13.56 MHz): Reads UniFi Access cards, third-party NFC credentials, and compatible smart cards. Tap-to-unlock with sub-second response.
- Integrated keypad: PIN code entry as a primary or backup authentication method. Assign temporary PINs for visitors or contractors with automatic expiration.
- Touch Pass (Bluetooth): Smartphone-based unlock through the UniFi Access mobile app. No card needed - the phone becomes the credential.
- IP55 rated: Protected against dust and water jets. Mounts indoors or outdoors without additional weatherproofing.
- PoE powered: Single Ethernet cable provides power and data. No separate power supply or low-voltage wiring to the reader.
- Built-in speaker: Audible feedback for successful/denied access attempts. Configurable tones through UniFi Access.
