McGrath Locks RBB56 Wireless Battery Powered Keypad, Metal Construction, IP65 Rating, Silver Finish

McGrath RBB56 Wireless Keypad & RFID Access Control

The McGrath RBB56 is a battery-powered wireless keypad and RFID reader designed to provide external PIN and card access to compatible McGrath smart locks or access controllers. It acts as a remote access interface, extending the PIN and RFID functionality of the paired device without requiring hard-wiring.

The RBB56 communicates with the paired device via Bluetooth (BLE) and is managed entirely through the McGrath Locks App. It is commonly used for gates, garages, secondary entry points, and outdoor installations where the primary lock or controller is located internally or out of reach.

Important:
The RBB56 is not a lock. It does not contain a latch, deadbolt, or motor. It must be paired with a compatible McGrath smart lock or access controller to function.

How PIN and RFID limits work
This keypad does not store users on its own. All PIN codes, RFID cards, schedules, and access rules are managed by the paired McGrath lock or controller.

If the paired device supports a certain number of users or cards, the keypad will support exactly the same. Removing or changing a user in the app immediately affects keypad access as well.
