Single doors on the Door Hub or Door Hub Mini
The Door Hub tech specs list Lock: 12V DC, 1A (powered) and Lock: 30V DC, 1A (dry).
Platform focus
UniFi Access, Intercom, and Protect installation and service for Bay Area properties.
Elwin Security installs, configures, repairs, and supports UniFi Access door and gate control, UniFi intercoms, and UniFi Protect cameras for commercial and multifamily properties in Santa Clara and the San Francisco Bay Area. The work covers the Door Hub, Retrofit Hub, G3 Reader Pro, G3 Intercom, Protect cameras, and the UniFi Console.
Use case
For properties that have chosen UniFi and need the console, doors, wiring, and network to match.
The console that runs the Access and Protect applications, the hub at each opening, the lock it powers, and the switch ports behind them set the scope of a UniFi job.
Gates, intercoms, and cameras
The Gate Hub tech specs list 1 gate, 1 side door, and (2) Operator rated 30V DC, up to 1A. Protect cameras run on PoE from switches and record to a console that runs the Protect application.
Service focus
UniFi work is console, hub power, lock relay, cable, and network, in that order.
The platform decision is made. The field conditions decide whether each hub powers up, reaches the console, and releases the door.

Site walk
What Elwin checks before scoping a UniFi project.
The walk confirms what each device needs to power up and connect, and what the property team will manage afterward.
Console and switching
Which UniFi console is on site, whether it runs Access and Protect, and the hub and camera counts against Ubiquiti's published limits. Which switch ports supply PoE++ for hubs and PoE for cameras, and whether doors must run through an outage.
Locks and door power
Lock voltage and current against the 12V DC 1A powered and 30V DC 1A dry lock outputs, and fail-safe or fail-secure behavior.
System layers
A UniFi scope spans the console, hubs, readers, intercoms, cameras, and the switches behind them.
Ubiquiti's tech specs list power inputs and outputs for the Door Hub, Retrofit Hub and Gate Hub.
Readers and credentials
The G3 Reader (UA-G3) tech specs list 13.56 MHz NFC frequency, Apple/Google Wallet, handwave request to exit, IP55, and -30 to 45 °C.
- G3 Reader
- G3 Reader Pro
- Touch Pass
Cameras, recorders, and storage
Ubiquiti's camera security page lists a UniFi Console running Protect as what you need to get started.
- Protect
- UNVR
- G6 cameras
Process
UniFi installation starts at the console and ends with the handoff.
Elwin plans the console, the field work, and the administrator setup before devices are mounted.
Confirm console, power, and locks
Record which console runs Access and Protect and each lock's voltage and current against the hub limits.
Result: Each door has a power path inside Ubiquiti's published limits.
Install, configure, hand off
Mount hubs, readers, intercoms, and cameras, terminate and label the wiring, adopt devices in the Access and Protect applications, pair cameras and readers to doors, configure unlock methods, schedules, and call receivers, test each opening, and hand off the Console Owner and admin roles.
Result: The property team manages doors, visitors, and footage from one console with documented openings.
What matters
UniFi devices work as well as the console, power, cable, and network behind them.
The limits that decide a UniFi job come from Ubiquiti's tech specs, product pages, and US store.
A reader beside the entry doors, a camera at the building corner, and a gated side path.

FAQ
Yes. Elwin Security installs, configures, repairs, and supports UniFi Access hubs and readers, UniFi intercoms, and UniFi Protect cameras for commercial and multifamily properties in Santa Clara and the San Francisco Bay Area, including the console setup, lock hardware, low-voltage wiring, and PoE switching each device needs.
Site walk
Start with the property conditions.
Tell Elwin what is not working, what systems are already on site, and which access points matter most. The next step is a scope grounded in the building, not a generic product list.
