Re: [AFMUG] Door Access Control System (self-install, self-hosted)

Look at Visionis (https://www.visionistech.com/en/home/). Their board is Chinese mfg, but it meets all your criteria. I have it in a building and two tower sites; it's been solid. The boards at each location all IP to the controller software you can put anywhere (including on-prem), but the boards don't need to be connected to the software to work, only for changing config, getting alerts and viewing logs. We just run ours in a VM so it's on all the time. A lot of their stuff you can just buy on Amazon, but not all of it.

Before I get pissed and just make something (which is how many of my products start).

Is there a good door access system which meets the following requirements:

1) I can actually buy as a mere mortal and not a "security system installer"
2) Is self-hosted and doesn't require an internet connection to operate
3) Supports both keypad and NFC card and/or phone access

Mainly I'm looking for a good old-fashioned door access system where I can put a door controller in and put a latch lock on the door and have staff come and go either with some sort of NFC access or have a keypad to enter (if someone forgets their NFC or for third-party access to the facility where needed).

It seems like either I have to be an installer, or it has to be an internet-connected thing, or has a monthly fee.   

I am aware of the unifi stuff from UBNT, not sure how I feel about that, but if I don't find another option, I'll give that a try.   If someone has that in place, let me know as I'm curious how well it works.
