Narrow 138 × 58 mm IP65 metal keypad holding 5,000 users. Opens by card, PIN or both, drives its own lock relay and can switch to Wiegand reader mode.
The SK-130 fits a complete standalone access controller into a narrow 138 × 58 mm metal housing for door frames, gate posts and wall strips too tight for a standard keypad. It stores 5,000 users, grants access by card, PIN or card plus PIN, and switches the lock from its own relay. The housing is rated IP65.
The SK-130-E reads 125 kHz EM4100, EM4102 and EM4200-compatible cards and key fobs. The SK-130-M reads 13.56 MHz UIDs from MIFARE Classic, MIFARE Plus, MIFARE DESFire, MIFARE Ultralight and NTAG2xx, and its card-number output format can be configured in software. Read distance is 0–3 cm, so users hold the card close to the front of the unit.
Apart from its shape, the SK-130 shares the published specification and 13-lead wiring of our SK-120, which makes it easy to mix wide and narrow keypads on one site. It can run standalone or switch to reader mode for an existing Wiegand panel, copy users to another unit and accept user management from a PC. Alarm handling covers door-sensor events, tampering and repeated wrong entries, and ESD tolerance is 6 kV contact and 8 kV air.
DIP switches 5 and 6 route Wiegand D0/D1 or TXD/RXD serial to the green and white leads. The NO/COM/NC relay contacts suit both fail-safe maglocks and fail-secure strikes. Budget up to 200 mA for the keypad in addition to the lock. Enrollment steps are in our keypad programming guide.

Apartment building access control hardware: anti-clone readers with matched fob sets, QR visitor codes, 4G controllers for rentals and UHF tags for gates.
Gym access control system hardware for 24/7 clubs: fob and wristband readers, face and QR terminals, anti-passback controllers and no-touch exit buttons.
Only the housing shape: the SK-130 is 138 × 58 mm against the SK-120’s 120 × 80 mm. User capacity, IP65 rating, electrical data and 13-lead wiring are the same.
Yes. It can be switched to reader mode, and with DIP switches 5 and 6 set to Wiegand it outputs on the green (D0) and white (D1) leads.
Up to 3 cm, depending on the credential and the mounting surface. Users should hold the card close to the front of the keypad.
Yes. The relay has NO, COM and NC contacts, so it can switch a fail-safe maglock or a fail-secure strike. Power the lock from a supply sized for its own current.
Compare Wiegand, OSDP and RS485 reader interfaces: wiring, cable limits, AES-128 Secure Channel and steps for a compatible access-control migration.
Maglock wiring with dry-relay COM/NC: keypad and reader diagrams, REX signals, approved egress release paths and manufacturer-specific suppression.
A fail-safe lock releases when power is cut; a fail-secure lock stays locked. Learn which to use per door, how to wire NO/NC, and what egress codes expect.
