If you’ve ever quoted an access control job and spent hours sourcing the panel separately, then the readers, then the credentials, then the power supply — only to realize you’re still short a component — you already know the problem. 

Atlas Access Control Kits were built to solve exactly that. One order. One box. Everything you need to walk on site and get the job done — at a price that beats buying it all piecemeal. 

Here’s what’s inside, why it matters, and how to pick the right kit for every job. 

What Are Atlas Access Control Kits? 

Atlas Access Control Kits are all-in-one bundles designed for professional security installers. Available in 2-door and 4-door configurations, each kit ships with the complete hardware stack needed for a fully operational access control system: 

• An Atlas panel in a powder-coated aluminum metal cabinet 

• ATL-PWR-1215 power supply and battery charger 

• Card readers (type varies by kit tier) 

• Credentials — key fobs or mobile BLE credentials (depending on tier) 

• A card enrollment reader (Basic Kit) 

The system is designed and engineered in the United States, is OSDP-Verified and NDAA compliant, and requires no software installation — the panel comes with an embedded web application built right in. 

Three Kit Tiers. Every Job Covered. 

Atlas kits come in three performance tiers, so you can match the solution to the client — not overspend on features they don’t need and not leave capability on the table when they do. 

Atlas Basic Kit (ATL2D-Basic / ATL4D-Basic) 

Best for: Entry-level commercial installs, small offices, storage facilities, and budget-conscious clients. 

The Basic Kit includes KR500E mullion-mount 125kHz RFID prox card readers, 50 proximity key fobs, and a CR20E USB card enrollment reader. It’s the fastest path from box to working system for straightforward jobs. 

Atlas Core Kit (ATL2D-Core / ATL4D-Core) 

Best for: Clients already using HID Prox infrastructure who need seamless compatibility. 

The Core Kit steps up to KR503H readers, specifically designed to support 125kHz HID Prox thick and clamshell cards — the format standard across thousands of commercial properties. Comes with 25 proximity key fobs. Perfect for retrofit jobs where the client is keeping their existing card stock. 

Atlas Elite Kit (ATL2D-Elite / ATL4D-Elite) 

Best for: Forward-thinking clients who want mobile credentials, multi-frequency card support, and a future-proof system. 

The Elite Kit features VG10CKQ-LHF readers that support both low and high-frequency cards — plus 25 AMT-BT BLE mobile credentials. Clients can tap in with their smartphone instead of carrying a card. No extra hardware needed. No add-on software. It just works. 

Under the Hood: Specs That Matter 

Every Atlas kit — regardless of tier — is built on the Atlas260 (2-door) or Atlas460 (4-door) panel. Here’s what that means for your installs: 

• User capacity: 5,000 per panel 

• Events database: 10,000 transactions + unlimited archive downloads 

• Communication: TCP/IP, Wi-Fi, Wiegand, and RS485/OSDP 

• Reader support: All ZKTeco Wiegand & OSDP readers, plus 3rd-party readers 

• Scalability: Primary-secondary architecture supports up to 21 panels (84 doors) 

• Power: 12V DC, 2A — also supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) 

• Credential support: Bluetooth, QR codes, fingerprint biometrics, and RFID 

• Enclosure: Powder-coated aluminum — wall mount, built to last 

• Browser management: Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari — no proprietary software 

 

The Real Savings Are in the Bundle 

Here’s the business case in plain terms: when you purchase an Atlas Kit, you’re getting the panel, readers, credentials, and power supply as a configured, tested, ready-to-ship package — priced below what you’d pay sourcing each component individually. 

That means: 

• Lower per-job materials cost — more margin in your pocket 

• No compatibility surprises between components 

• Faster quoting — one SKU covers the whole system 

• Less time on the truck sourcing parts, more time on billable installs 

For locksmiths, system integrators, and low voltage installers running multiple jobs per month, this adds up fast. 

Manage Everything with AtlasCloud 

Every Atlas kit integrates seamlessly with AtlasCloud — the remote management platform built for installers who manage multiple client sites. With AtlasCloud, you can: 

• Manage all client systems from a single interface — no port forwarding or static IP required 

• Access encrypted cloud backups automatically

• Keep client data on the Atlas panel with optional cloud backup 

• Continue controlling doors even if the cloud connection drops 

• Generate recurring monthly revenue (RMR) through the AtlasCloud model 

The Atlas mobile app gives you full configuration control from your phone — add and edit users, view reports and alarms, lock down or open doors, and more. One FREE administrator license is included per project.
