We provide RFID home automation systems for enhance security and comfortable living. At Identium, we understand the change in scenarios and deliver tailor made solutions to enhance the comfort of every Home owner.
With MNRE thrust and focus on generating renewable energy from Solar and other sources and announcing net metering policy to give credits for the unused power generated and feeding the grid, The home owners can install security devices and automate home appliances to save and optimize power utilities
Authentication solutionsFrom Video door phones to secure surveillance cameras and authorized entry systems, we can automate the entire home and personalize to individual requirements. The devices will be connected to the personal portals..
Net meteringWhen your home is equipped with a renewable energy source (such as wind or solar power), it sends the excess energy that’s generated back into the grid to power other homes. An electrical converter called an inverter turns the DC (direct current) power coming from your renewable energy source into AC (alternating current) power, which matches the voltage of the electricity flowing through the power line.
As the excess energy is being generated, your power meter spins backward rather than forward, giving you a credit that you can use to pay for your future energy use (you can roll over excess electricity to your next bill, just as many cell phone companies let you roll over minutes).
If you’ve generated more energy than you’ve used, your electric company may pay you back for the extra power at the prevailing rate. If you have market-rate net metering the utility company will pay only a wholesale rate, which is less than retail and won’t earn you anything (it’s kind of like giving away your extra energy), but you’ll still save on your overall power bill.
Which RFID frequency belongs in a home, and where
In a house or a gated flat, RFID does one job well: it proves identity at a fixed point. The tap is the trigger; your controller or panel decides what follows — release the lock, disarm an alarm zone, switch on entry lighting, log who came in. Choosing the right frequency at each of those points matters more than the brand of panel.
For doors, cabinets and any credential a person carries, the answer is HF 13.56 MHz — the ISO 14443 family, which covers Mifare Classic, DESFire and the NFC tags a phone can read, with ISO 15693 vicinity cards sitting at the same frequency. Range is a few centimetres, and that is the point: the card has to be deliberately presented, so nothing opens because a fob was sitting in a pocket near the door. HF is not EPC Gen2 or RAIN RFID; those terms describe passive UHF only and do not apply to a door reader.
Older 125 kHz LF proximity fobs still turn up in society entry panels. They are cheap and read-only, with no meaningful security, so they suit a service gate or a store cupboard rather than a main door. Where an LF estate is already installed, people can be moved onto HF credentials in stages rather than in one cutover — tell us which panels are in place and we will work out what the replacement readers have to support.
Passive UHF sits at 865–867 MHz in India, the band WPC has delicensed for RFID as of 2026 — worth reconfirming the current position with WPC before you finalise a specification. This is the EPC Gen2 / ISO/IEC 18000-63 air interface, marketed as RAIN RFID, and it earns its place at one point only: the vehicle gate, where a windshield tag typically reads from a few metres as the car rolls up. Mounting position, glass type, reader placement and surrounding metal all move that figure, so treat it as a starting point to test on site rather than a number to design around.
| Point of use | Frequency | Typical credential | Practical range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main door, flat door | HF 13.56 MHz | Mifare / DESFire card or keyfob | A few cm |
| Wardrobe, safe cabinet, locker | HF 13.56 MHz or LF 125 kHz | Fob, wristband, card | A few cm |
| Legacy or service gate panel | LF 125 kHz | 125 kHz proximity fob | A few cm |
| Driveway or society gate | Passive UHF 865–867 MHz | Windshield tag, UHF card | A few metres, environment-dependent |
| Room presence, not access | BLE beacon | Battery-powered beacon | Metres, coarse and site-dependent |
Two practical notes. Metal door frames and mirrored wardrobe fronts detune an HF reader antenna, so mount the reader clear of metal where you can and test the exact position before the installer fixes it. And for anything security-relevant, DESFire is the safer credential to standardise on rather than Mifare Classic. Every reader we supply ships with an SDK, demo app and source code, so the tap can be wired into whichever home controller you already run.
