A rugged credential verification device built for active jobsites. It turns any point on site into a verified access point, with the same credential checks and reports as your gate hardware.

Sitemetric is trusted by 90% of the top 20 ENR companies
Sitemetric turnstiles and hand scanners have logged over 200 million site and restricted zone entrances and exits.
The Sitemetric Hand Scanner brings the same credential checks as your gate to any point on site, with the decision on screen and every scan in the site record.

Use it at gates, hoists, floors, tunnels and roving checkpoints, with no power drop, mounting or network build.
Tap, scan at a distance, detect by proximity or key in by hand. Every method produces the same verified event.
Every grant shows the worker's photo, name and company. Every denial shows the reason, with no radio call to the office.
Hand Scanner events write into the same gate, daily and headcount reports as every fixed scanner on the site.
Operators sign in, choose the zone and mark each scan as entry or exit. Each event lands in the same site record as your fixed scanners.
Each operator uses a named account, and every scan event is attributed to the signed-in user.
The operator confirms the site, selects the zone and sets the Entry or Exit toggle to match the direction of traffic.
The badge is checked live against the Sitemetric Site Access roster, with the worker's photo, name and company held on screen until the next scan.
The event flows into the Gate Report and live headcount, the same as a fixed gate scan in the site record.
A device built for jobsite conditions, configured before it ships and supported remotely once it's on site.
8-foot drops to concrete, IP65 and IP68 sealing and a -4 °F to 122 °F operating range. Glove and rain modes are on by default.
A dedicated push-to-talk key lets operators talk with the site team from the scanner, so they don't need to carry a separate two-way radio.
A full scanning shift per charge, USB-C fast charging and a battery swap without powering down.
Configured and enrolled before dispatch, then drop-shipped to site ready to scan.
Device health is monitored remotely, updates are pushed over the air and replacements ship pre-configured to site.
Remote lock and wipe, with on-device data encrypted at rest.
The Hand Scanner works with the rest of the Sitemetric system, from the turnstiles at the gate and the badges your crews wear to the AI cameras across your site.
Every handheld scan is checked against the same Sitemetric Site Access roster as your fixed scanners, so a roving checkpoint follows the same rules as the main gate.

The Mission Critical Turnstile Gen-3 secures the main gate with battery backup, and every entry lands in the same record as your handheld scans.
The Sitemetric Access Control Booth supports scanners, sensors, cameras and print stations at the entry point.
Sitemetric badges carry NFC, QR and BLE, and the Hand Scanner reads all three, plus manual entry.
The Sitemetric AI Camera counts people in a zone and checks the count against badge IDs, so a mismatch alerts your team in real time.

Answers to common questions about where it works, what it reads, connectivity and setup.
Anywhere crews need to be verified: gates, hoists, floors, tunnels and roving checkpoints. It runs on its own battery and cellular connection, so it needs no power drop, mounting or network build.
It reads badges four ways: NFC tap, a 2D imager for QR and barcodes (standard or long-range), BLE proximity and manual entry. Every method produces the same verified event.
No. It connects over 5G or LTE cellular, and cellular and Wi-Fi switch automatically when Wi-Fi is available.
Yes. Hand Scanner events write into the same gate, daily and headcount reports as every fixed scanner on the site.
Sitemetric configures and enrolls each scanner before dispatch and ships it to site ready to scan. Device health is monitored remotely, and updates are pushed over the air.
It can be locked and wiped remotely, and data on the device is encrypted at rest.
A full scanning shift per charge. The battery can be swapped without powering down, and it charges over USB-C.
The Sitemetric Hand Scanner comes with a 2-year warranty.
