Arduino/ID-12 RFID door lock demo

This video demos my home brewed RFID door lock that I installed at the back door of my pizzeria. My delivery drivers are in and out of this door all day and night. They always keep the door open so that they do not get locked out. In the winter they let all the cold air in and in the summer they let flies in because the trash dumpster is out back. This solution allows me to give them each a RFID card to "buzz" them selves back in the door after taking a delivery.

I used an Arduino and an ID-12 RFID reader along with various other components.
This demo shows how to add a new user; how to delete the users and how to actually use the card to enter the door.

RJ-45 is only connector!!! ))) It is not cable! Cable is Ethernet-cable

@exceilence You sir are a douche bag. Thank you for pointing out the obvious. I only hope someone would not try to build this only to get confused by the RJ45 VS CAT V.

Which enclosure? The black one inside or the gray one outside?

[kelondrio]

@pingywon I'd like to know about the gray one.

Thanks

@kelondrio The gray box is from my local home improvement store. It is a "water proof" box for double electrical recepticals. I drilled a small hole for the LED and then filled the hole with clear silicone.

Hi, what did you use to connect arduino to door strike ? Thanks!

[pingywon]

@Carlcox89 ummm wires? ...or maybe solder.

Douchebag: "Someone who has surpassed the levels of jerk and asshole, however not yet reached fucker or motherfucker. Not to be confuzed with douche."

or

"An individual who has an over-inflated sense of self worth, compounded by a low level of intellegence, behaving ridiculously in front of colleagues with no sense of how moronic he appears. "

@pingywon "a douche bag" ? What does it mean? I want to know who I am in your mind. Thanks.

Hi, Where did you buy this enclosure?

[pingywon]

I did most of the process in my head. email me and I can discuss things in more detail and hopefully answer any questions you might have. pingywon at gmail dot com
