Abstract

A remote access control apparatus includes features for controlling an electro-mechanical actuator for locking or unlocking a door or gate mechanism in response to a signal from a wireless interface. The signal is generated by an application in communication with the access control apparatus via a wide area network or other electronic communication network. A managing user configures access for a guest via an online interface, which generates an executable addressed resource specifying conditions for entry. The managing user can grant access by enabling distribution of a link to the resource, which verifies the identity of the requesting device or user and transmits an access command to the lock controller if the request meets the user-specified conditions.
