SECO-LARM SK-2612-SFSQ Fingerprint Reader and Keypad
The SK-2612-SFSQ is a biometric access-control device that combines fingerprint recognition and keypad entry in a weatherproof housing. It is intended for sites where the manager wants tighter control than a shared keypad code can provide. The built-in fingerprint reader can identify authorized users quickly, while the keypad provides an additional entry method depending on programming. The unit can work as a stand-alone controller using its relay output, or it can serve as a Wiegand reader for a compatible access-control panel. Because biometric readers depend on proper setup, user enrollment, stable power, and correct wiring, this model should be selected only after confirming the site's power supply, controller format, user-management needs, and environmental conditions.
Compatible With
- Outdoor or protected access points requiring fingerprint and PIN access
- Stand-alone controlled doors or pedestrian gates using the onboard Form C relay output
- Access-control panels that accept compatible Wiegand reader output, commonly 26 to 37 bit depending on setup
- Electric strikes, magnetic locks, and request-to-exit wiring when connected within published ratings
- Sites needing fingerprint enrollment and user management rather than card-only access

Technician Note
Fingerprint readers should be installed at a comfortable height and protected from direct abuse, standing water, and wiring faults. Poor enrollment or dirty fingers can cause false rejects even when the unit is working correctly.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm 12 VDC power is available.
- Confirm whether the unit will be stand-alone or connected by Wiegand to a controller.
- Verify the access policy allows biometric user enrollment.
- Check relay rating and lock or gate input requirements.
- Plan how users will be added, deleted, and documented after installation.
Professional Advisory
For biometric access control, a professional installer should verify wiring, door/gate safety, local access policies, and secure user-management procedures.
Important Ordering Warnings
- This is not a 12 to 24 VAC keypad; confirm 12 VDC power before ordering.
- Fingerprint access may not be ideal for dirty, wet, or high-abuse environments.
- Do not use this device to bypass required gate safety inputs.
Product Questions and Answers
Can the SK-2612-SFSQ be used as a stand-alone controller?
Yes, it can be used as a stand-alone device through its relay output when the lock or operator input is compatible.
Can it connect to an access-control panel?
Yes, it can serve as a Wiegand reader for compatible panels, but the Wiegand bit format and panel programming must be confirmed.
Is this the same as the SK-2612-SPQ?
No. The SK-2612-SFSQ is the fingerprint reader/keypad version. The SK-2612-SPQ is a proximity-reader keypad and should not be treated as the same item.
What power does it need?
This model is commonly listed for 12 VDC operation. Do not assume it can use the same power as a 12 to 24 VAC/VDC keypad.
Is it suitable for a driveway gate?
It may be used for a pedestrian gate or a gate operator access input when properly wired, but biometric access does not replace required monitored entrapment protection.
