Linear Access AK-11 Digital Gate Keypad Outdoor Rated

Standalone Keyless Entry for Gates, Doors, and Controlled Access Points

The Linear AK-11 Digital Keypad is a standalone access control keypad designed for automated gates, pedestrian doors, and other controlled entry points. Its rugged cast-aluminum enclosure, tactile die-cast keys, illuminated keypad area, and onboard relay outputs make it well suited for outdoor gate entrances as well as commercial and residential access applications.

The AK11 stores up to 480 programmable entry codes, with code lengths from 1 to 6 digits. Each code can be assigned to Relay #1, Relay #2, or both, with timed or toggle operation. This allows one keypad to control a gate operator, electric door strike, secondary access point, or other compatible equipment without requiring a separate access controller.

For installations requiring more than basic code entry, the AK11 includes timed anti-passback, keypad lockout, request-to-enter, door sense or inhibit functionality, alarm shunting, and programmable auxiliary outputs. Its EEPROM memory retains programmed entry codes and settings even when power is removed.

Conclusion

The Linear AK-11 provides a practical standalone keypad solution for properties that need local code-based gate or door access without a larger access control system. Its 480-code capacity, dual relays, anti-passback, request-to-enter, door monitoring options, and programmable outputs give installers flexibility for residential entrances, commercial gates, pedestrian doors, and multi-function access points.

For gate installations, the keypad can connect directly to the gate operator's open input through Relay #1. The keypad should be mounted where the gate remains fully visible to the user while remaining far enough away that the gate cannot be touched while the keypad is being operated.
