FAQ
What’s the difference between F08, TK4100 and T5577?
F08 (HF 13.56 MHz) is common for hotel/door systems; TK4100 (LF 125 kHz) suits legacy proximity readers; T5577 is a rewritable LF chip widely used for replacement/proxy cards. We’ll help match your readers.
Can you pre-encode the cards before shipping?
Yes. Provide your site/facility code, card format, UID list or controller brand/model, and we’ll encode and verify.
Can we print logos, QR codes, and serial numbers?
Absolutely. We offer edge-to-edge CMYK/UV, QR/barcodes, serials, magstripe and variable data to match your database.
Are the cards waterproof and long-lasting?
Yes. Laminated PVC is waterproof, wear-resistant and designed for daily tapping at gates and readers.
Do you supply small test runs or samples?
Samples are available for print proofing and chip compatibility checks prior to mass production.
