The right gear to install Abriu

The hub, the face terminals, the gate relay and the camera recorder that work with Abriu. Abriu doesn't sell equipment: here you see the right model and buy it from the store you prefer.

What to buy

The gear for each case

Every place has a hub. The rest depends on what it needs: pedestrian doors, the garage gate, the cameras.

For each door

A face terminal, the lock it drives, the power supply and the exit button. The door sensor is optional.

For the garage gate

A Shelly relay on the gate's control board. The interface relay only when the board has no signal-light output.

For the cameras

A Hikvision recorder. If the place already has one, there is nothing to buy: it only needs to be registered in the dashboard.

The hub

A Raspberry Pi at each place runs Abriu: it keeps the records, talks to the terminals, the relay and the recorder, and reports to Abriu over the internet. It stays on all the time, with no keyboard, mouse or screen.

Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi 5

The recommended board for Abriu's hub: room to spare in memory and processing for years of running.

Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi 4 (2 GB or more)

The other recommended board for the hub: the Raspberry Pi 4 with 2 GB of memory or more.

Intelbras, SMS or APC

600 VA UPS

A small UPS keeps the hub, the router and the terminals running when the power goes out.

Face terminals

One per door: it recognizes the face (and, depending on the model, a card, a QR code, a PIN or a fingerprint) and releases the lock. The dashboard sends them the records and reads the entries.

Hikvision

Hikvision DS-K1T642MFW face terminal

The terminal Abriu validated: face, Mifare card, fingerprint and PIN, and it reads the QR codes of invitations.

Intelbras

Intelbras SS 3542 MF face controller

The SS 3532 MF's sibling with a fingerprint reader, of the same Bio-T line. It works with Abriu; its fingerprints don't yet.

At the door

What goes with each terminal: the lock it drives, the power supply, the exit button and the sensor that tells whether the door was left open.

Any brand

12 V magnetic lock

For glass and entrance doors: the magnet holds the door shut and lets go when the terminal releases it.

Drawing of a gate electric strike, with its mechanism box and the latch.

Any brand

12 V electric strike

For gates and doors with a latch lock: the terminal sends the pulse and the strike frees the latch.

Drawing of an exit button: a wall plate with a round button.

Any brand

Exit button

On the inside, wired to the terminal's button input: required to leave without identifying yourself.

Drawing of a magnetic door sensor: two white pieces, the sensor with its wire and the magnet.

Any brand

Magnetic door sensor (NC)

Optional: on the terminal's sensor input, it lets the dashboard show the door open and alert when it doesn't close.

Garage gate

A Shelly relay wired to the gate's control board opens the gate from the dashboard and the app, like the guard booth's button, and shows whether it was left open.

Shelly

Shelly 1 Mini Gen4 relay

The relay that opens the garage gate from the dashboard and the app, and shows whether it was left open.

Drawing of a DIN rail interface relay, with its coil and screw terminals.

Any brand

12 or 24 V interface relay

Only when the gate's control board has no signal-light output: it links the gate's sensor to the Shelly at low voltage.

Cameras

A Hikvision recorder in the dashboard: the cameras live, the recordings from any moment, and an alert when a camera, the disk or the recording stops.

No partner in your area?

Have someone you trust install it

Abriu doesn't depend on a partner near you. With the right gear, an electrician or installer from your area does the physical work, and Abriu takes care of the rest.

  1. 1. Pick the gear

    The models on this page are the ones Abriu tested or recommends. If in doubt, ask before buying.

  2. 2. Call someone you trust

    An electrician or installer from your area mounts the hub, the terminals and the relay, following the installation guide, public and step by step.

  3. 3. Abriu does the rest

    Abriu registers the place, hands over the hub's installation code, watches everything remotely and provides support.
