Swipe to enter
Keycard access is a security system that grants entry when an authorized card is presented to a reader.
The card contains encoded data—magnetic stripe, chip, or RFID—that the system verifies before unlocking a door or gate.
Common in hotels, offices, and apartment buildings: Residents use keycard access after hours.
The term also describes the permission itself: You'll need keycard access to reach the executive floor.
