Product SKU: DS-K1105EDKB-QR
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-K1105EDKB-QR is a Pro Series access-control card reader with an integrated touch keypad and QR code recognition, designed for entrances requiring flexible credential options in a compact wall-mounted format. The reader supports 125 kHz EM cards, 13.56 MHz M1 cards and DESFire cards, together with PIN, QR code and Bluetooth authentication in supported configurations. Communication options include RS-485, Wiegand W26/W34 and OSDP, allowing integration with compatible access-control systems. A built-in buzzer provides reading-status feedback, while occlusion detection and online upgrade support add practical management features. The slim 139 × 46 mm body suits door-frame installations where card, keypad and QR authentication are required without using a larger access terminal.
Key Capabilities
QR Code Recognition
Dedicated QR code recognition allows compatible QR credentials to be used for access-control workflows alongside physical cards, PIN entry and Bluetooth authentication.
Multi-Technology Card Support
The built-in reader supports EM, M1 and DESFire cards, giving installers greater credential flexibility than a reader limited to a single card technology.
Touch-Panel PIN Authentication
An integrated touch panel supports PIN authentication, allowing the reader to be configured for supported card-and-PIN, QR-and-PIN or other multi-method access workflows.
RS-485, Wiegand & OSDP
RS-485, Wiegand W26/W34 and OSDP communication provide several integration options for compatible access controllers and system architectures.
Bluetooth Authentication
Bluetooth is supported as an additional authentication method in compatible system configurations, expanding credential options beyond cards and keypad entry.
Occlusion Detection
The reader supports occlusion detection, while supported Bluetooth configurations can also provide hand-waving access functionality for compatible deployments.
Best For
- Visitor Access: QR code recognition can support temporary or digitally issued access credentials in compatible systems.
- Commercial Entrances: Card, PIN and QR authentication suit offices, warehouses, retail premises and controlled staff areas.
- Multi-Credential Systems: EM, M1, DESFire, QR, PIN and Bluetooth provide flexibility for sites using several supported credential methods.
- Access-Control Upgrades: RS-485, Wiegand and OSDP communication support integration with compatible controller architectures.
- Compact Door Frames: The slim reader body suits locations where a full-size access terminal would occupy too much wall or frame space.
Why Choose the DS-K1105EDKB-QR
The DS-K1105EDKB-QR builds on the standard DS-K1105EDKB by adding QR code recognition while retaining card, PIN and Bluetooth authentication. This makes it particularly useful for sites that want to combine permanent staff credentials with digital or temporary QR-based access in a single compact reader. EM, M1 and DESFire compatibility broadens physical-card support, while RS-485, Wiegand and OSDP provide flexible controller integration. Available through Security Wholesalers, the DS-K1105EDKB-QR is a practical choice where a slim door-mounted reader needs to support several authentication methods without stepping up to a larger display-based access terminal.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Choose the QR version when QR code credentials are genuinely required. If the project only needs card, PIN and Bluetooth authentication, the standard DS-K1105EDKB may provide the required functionality without the QR recognition feature.
Buyer Tip: The current Hikvision datasheet for the QR model does not state an ingress-protection rating in its specification table. If a defined IP rating is mandatory for the project, confirm the current approved environmental rating before specifying the reader for an exposed outdoor location.

Ideal Use Cases
Visitor & Contractor Access
QR credentials can support temporary or digitally issued access workflows where permanent physical cards are unnecessary.
Office Entrances
Card, PIN and Bluetooth authentication provide flexible staff access for office doors and controlled internal areas.
Retail Staff Areas
The compact reader suits stockrooms, offices and staff-only doors where card and keypad access are required.
Multi-Credential Sites
EM, M1, DESFire, PIN, QR and Bluetooth support allows one reader to accommodate several supported credential types.
Door-Frame Installations
The slim 46 mm-wide housing suits entrances where mounting space is limited but keypad and QR functionality are still required.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose the DS-K1105EDKB-QR if: You need QR recognition together with card, PIN and Bluetooth authentication in a compact reader.
- Choose the standard DS-K1105EDKB if: QR code recognition is unnecessary and the project only needs supported card, PIN and Bluetooth functions.
- Confirm card technology if: Existing credentials are already deployed, as both the reader and access-control system must support the same card type.
- Confirm environmental rating if: The reader will be installed in an exposed outdoor position, because the current QR-model datasheet does not specify an IP rating.
FAQs
- What credentials does the Hikvision DS-K1105EDKB-QR support?
The Hikvision DS-K1105EDKB-QR supports multiple authentication methods including card swiping, PIN, QR code and Bluetooth in supported configurations. Hikvision lists EM cards, M1 cards and DESFire cards for this model, giving installers flexibility when designing access-control systems that use physical cards together with keypad or mobile-style credentials.
- Does the DS-K1105EDKB-QR support QR code access?
Yes. QR code recognition is a dedicated function of the DS-K1105EDKB-QR. Hikvision also states that the reader supports multiple authentication methods including QR code, card, PIN and Bluetooth. Barcode recognition is not supported, so this model should be selected specifically for compatible QR-based access workflows rather than general barcode scanning.
- Which communication protocols does the DS-K1105EDKB-QR support?
The DS-K1105EDKB-QR supports RS-485, Wiegand and OSDP communication. Hikvision specifies Wiegand W26 and W34 support, and the current specification lists one RS-485 interface with OSDP support at 19200 baud. The selected connection method should match the capabilities and configuration of the access controller used at the site.
- Does the DS-K1105EDKB-QR include a keypad?
Yes. The DS-K1105EDKB-QR includes a touch panel and supports PIN authentication. This allows the reader to be used in card-and-PIN, QR-and-PIN or other supported access workflows depending on the connected controller and software configuration. The integrated buzzer also provides an audible indication of reading status.
- What power supply does the DS-K1105EDKB-QR require?
The DS-K1105EDKB-QR operates from a 12 VDC power supply and has a stated maximum power consumption of 6 W. For Security Wholesalers installations, the power and data wiring should be designed around the chosen RS-485, Wiegand or OSDP connection method and the requirements of the connected access-control controller.
- What are the dimensions and operating conditions of the DS-K1105EDKB-QR?
The DS-K1105EDKB-QR measures approximately 139 mm × 46 mm × 21.2 mm and weighs about 167.7 g. Hikvision specifies wall mounting, an operating temperature range from -40°C to 65°C and working humidity from 0% to 90%. The current Hikvision QR-model datasheet does not state an ingress-protection rating in its specification table, so any required IP rating should be confirmed before installation.
