Create and Configure a Door

When you create a door, it creates a virtual button inside your Kisi App. Each physical door that is Kisi enabled in your space should have a subsequent Door created in the Kisi Dashboard.

Create doors

To create doors:

1. Sign into Kisi
2. Open your Place from the dashboard
3. Click on Doors in the navigational bar
4. Select Add Door on the right
5. Name your door and make sure it is descriptive. All of your users will see the name of the door in their Kisi app.
6. Click Add

Associate Door to the Controller: Now that you have created the door, you will need to associate it to your Kisi Controller.

1. On the dashboard, click on Hardware
2. Click on the desired Controller you see on the screen    
3. Click on Relays. This corresponds to the numbered relay on the Kisi Controller Pro to which the door was physically wired. Select the correct relay and input in the corresponding lock name.
4. 'Duration' relates to how many seconds the door will remain unlocked.  It defaults for 3 seconds.  You can adjust it for up to 30 seconds.
5. Click Save.

Next, if you have wired Contact Sensors and/or Request to Exit (REX) devices to the Kisi controller, you will want to configure them, as well. 

Not all setups have Contact Sensors and/or Request to Exit buttons connected. Please confirm with your installer that these accessories were wired to the Kisi Controller. Otherwise, configuring them in the Kisi without the proper equipment wired may result in false reporting on the dashboard.

Configure Contact Sensors and/or REX (if applicable):

1. Click on 'Hardware' again on the dashboard.
2. Click on the desired Controller you see on the screen    
3. Choose Contact Sensors / Request To Exits. This corresponds to the numbered input on the Kisi Controller Pro the contact sensor/ REX to which the contact sensor/REX was physically wired. Select the correct input number, then select the corresponding lock name.
4. Confirm the sliding button is "Enabled"
5. Click Save.

It is time to test your new Kisi enabled door!

If your Kisi hardware has not been installed yet: Make an unlock from the Kisi app and listen for a click coming from the relays on the Kisi board. You should hear an audible click each time you press the unlock button.

If your Kisi hardware has already been installed: When you unlock your door via mobile app or desktop, your door should unlock.
