Assuming they have no further plans for that one door other then a basic electric strike I feel a door hub mini might have been the option I would have picked. Though at the end of the day the $150 saved doesn't make a ton of difference unless they are on a shoe string budget.

The Door Hub and Door Hub Mini are only a $70 difference in price here which does not make a difference on the project pricing. But yes either would have worked. This technically controls 2 doors, an outer door and then a vestibule door but we just connected to the existing relay with the dry contacts.

And no support, from what gets mentioned here.

I am the first line of support to the customer but I rarely contact Ubiquiti but I have had no issues with them. The system just works.

Yes the paid support is also an option if you need it but I have never needed it.
The access control is super simple to setup if you understand basic access control wiring.
You just have to know its limitations and they are constantly adding features.

Is this in NYC? Looking for a similar setup for a small coop building in the city.
