Product Overview
For businesses or installers setting up a managed access control environment on Hikvision infrastructure, the HikCentral Professional Access Control Base Package provides the software licensing foundation to centralise door management from a single platform. This base license covers 2 doors and is designed to run within the HikCentral Professional ecosystem, enabling administrators to manage access permissions, monitor door status, and maintain user credentials across connected Hikvision access control hardware. Featuring a web-based interface, the platform supports multi-user administration and provides a structured framework for expanding access control across a facility. It is well suited to small commercial deployments, office environments, or staged rollouts where organisations need a cost-controlled starting point before scaling up with additional door licenses as requirements grow.
Key Capabilities
2-Door Base License
The base package activates management for 2 doors within the HikCentral Professional platform, making it a practical entry point for small sites or individual access zones without paying for unused capacity from day one.
Centralised Access Management
HikCentral Professional consolidates door control, user credentials, and access schedules into a single web-based management interface, reducing the need to configure each Hikvision controller individually at the device level.
Scalable License Architecture
The base package is designed to grow with a deployment. Additional door licenses can be added to the same platform, allowing organisations to scale access control coverage incrementally rather than replacing their management software entirely.
Hikvision Ecosystem Integration
As part of the HikCentral Professional suite, this license integrates with Hikvision access control hardware, allowing administrators to manage physical door controllers, card readers, and user groups from within a unified platform.
Best For
- Small Office Access Control: Sites with a limited number of controlled entry points benefit from the 2-door base license as a cost-effective starting configuration using existing Hikvision hardware.
- Staged Commercial Deployments: Installers who need to bring a site online quickly with a defined initial scope, then expand via additional door licenses as the client’s needs grow.
- Existing HikCentral Environments: Organisations already operating HikCentral Professional for video surveillance who want to consolidate access control management into the same platform.
Why Choose the HikCentral Professional Access Control Base Package
The HikCentral Professional Access Control Base Package (HIK-CENTRAL-P-ACS-BASE/2DOOR) provides a structured, scalable starting point for managing Hikvision access control hardware through a centralised software platform. Unlike standalone controller configurations that require per-device setup, HikCentral Professional consolidates credential management, access schedules, and door monitoring into a single interface. The 2-door base license keeps initial costs proportionate to the deployment size, with the flexibility to expand as a site scales. For integrators working within Hikvision ecosystems, this license removes the need to maintain separate software stacks for video and access management. Available through Security Wholesalers, this package is suited to both new installations and organisations looking to bring existing Hikvision access control hardware under unified platform management.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: This base license covers 2 doors. If your site requires more than 2 controlled entry points now or in the near future, factor in the cost of additional door license add-ons before committing to this base package. Confirm that your Hikvision access control hardware is compatible with the HikCentral Professional platform version you intend to deploy, as controller firmware and platform version alignment is important for full feature support.

Ideal Use Cases
Small Office Entry Management
Offices with 1 or 2 controlled entry points can use this base license to bring their Hikvision door controllers under centralised management without oversizing their software investment.
Multi-Tenant Commercial Buildings
Buildings with a small initial access control rollout can deploy the 2-door base license and scale door coverage incrementally as tenant requirements increase over time.
Unified Hikvision Security Environments
Sites already running HikCentral Professional for video management can add this access control license to consolidate both functions under a single platform and administrator login.
Security Integrator Project Deployments
Integrators specifying Hikvision access control for clients benefit from the base package as a starting license that can be expanded with add-on door licenses to match the exact scope of each project.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You are deploying a Hikvision access control system with 2 doors and want centralised management through HikCentral Professional, or you are starting a staged rollout that will expand over time using additional door license add-ons.
- Choose a different model if: Your site requires more than 2 doors from the outset. In that case, look at HikCentral Professional door license add-on packages to ensure your initial configuration matches your actual deployment size without requiring immediate supplementary purchases.
FAQs
- What does the 2-door base package actually license?
This license activates access control management for 2 doors within the HikCentral Professional platform. It allows administrators to configure door controllers, manage user credentials, set access schedules, and monitor door status through the HikCentral Professional web interface for those 2 doors.
- Can I add more doors to this license later?
Yes. The HikCentral Professional platform is designed with a scalable license structure. Once the base package is active, additional door licenses can be added to extend coverage beyond the initial 2 doors, making it practical to start with this base package and expand as a site grows.
- Does this license work with all Hikvision access control hardware?
This license is intended for use with Hikvision access control devices that are supported by the HikCentral Professional platform. Compatibility depends on the firmware version of your controllers and the version of HikCentral Professional deployed. Confirm hardware compatibility with your HikCentral Professional version before purchasing.
- Is this a perpetual license or a subscription?
Based on available product data, this is listed as a base package license. For specific licensing terms including perpetual versus subscription structure, confirm with the supplier at the time of purchase. Security Wholesalers can assist with clarifying license terms for your project.
- Can this access control license run alongside HikCentral Professional video management on the same platform?
HikCentral Professional is a unified platform that supports both video management and access control modules. Adding this access control license to an existing HikCentral Professional video deployment allows administrators to manage both functions from the same interface, which reduces the number of separate systems to maintain.
- Is any hardware included with this package?
No. This is a software license only. It does not include door controllers, card readers, electric locks, or any physical access control hardware. Hardware must be sourced separately and must be compatible with the HikCentral Professional platform.
