Self-Contained ID Verification
The IVAC Wall Mount is a self-contained ID verification and access control unit mounted at the entry point of either an interior wall, vestibule, or door frame.
A patron presents their government-issued ID to the scanning surface, and Patronscan’s forensic engine authenticates the document in seconds, checking that the ID is genuine, current, and belongs to someone of legal age.

Features Overview
Ranging from a variety of industries, our clients trust us to secure their solution
Request a DemoMulti-Layer Forensic ID Authentication
Patronscan’s detection engine runs every scanned ID through multiple forensic checks, not just a barcode read. It cross-references document data against known ID templates, flags inconsistencies, and identifies expired, altered, or counterfeit IDs with an accuracy refined over 110 million scans and 15 years of development.
Barcode-only scanners read what a fake ID tells them to read. The IVAC Wall Mount checks whether the ID should exist at all.
Age-Gated Door Control, No Staff Needed
The IVAC Wall Mount connects directly to a strike system to control a door lock, turnstile, or cooler/fridge door. When an ID passes verification and meets the age threshold, access is granted automatically. When it doesn’t, the door stays locked.
For unmanned points of sale such as liquor coolers, tobacco sections, restricted rooms, this removes the reliance on floor staff entirely.
Flagged Patron Network Across 341+ Cities
Every IVAC Wall Mount is connected to Patronscan’s cross-venue intelligence network, which spans 341+ cities worldwide. If a patron has been flagged for a serious offence at another venue, your system knows before they walk through the door.
Venue owners and security teams receive real-time SMS alerts for fake IDs, flagged patrons, and minor attempts at any time of day.
Admin Portal with Live Venue Intelligence
Every scan generates data. The IVAC Wall Mount feeds a live admin portal with visit history, demographic breakdowns, and daily, weekly, and monthly performance reports. Operators can flag individuals, review scan histories, register members, and receive live stats on capacity and traffic.
The same portal runs across multiple doors or locations from a single account.

The Connected Strike System
Once verification is complete, the result is transmitted to the connected strike system on the Patronscan network. A clean scan triggers the door release, whether that’s a standard door lock, a turnstile, or a cooler latch.
A failed scan keeps the entry locked and sends an alert to venue staff or management. The entire process runs without any employee at the entry point.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions about the IVAC Wall Mount?
How does the IVAC Wall Mount integrate with door hardware?
The IVAC Wall Mount connects to a standard electronic strike system, which can control a door lock, turnstile, or cooler/fridge latch. When an ID passes forensic verification and age check, the strike releases automatically. Failed verifications keep the entry locked and send an alert. The unit is compatible with most commercial door strike configurations and ships with scanning hardware, mounting hardware, and installation instructions.
Can the IVAC Wall Mount operate without staff present?
Yes. The IVAC Wall Mount is specifically designed for unmanned, self-service operation. A patron presents their ID, the unit authenticates it forensically, and the door responds accordingly. No employee is required at the entry point. This makes it ideal for age-restricted retail coolers, restricted room entrances, and unstaffed access points during off-peak hours.
How accurate is the fake ID detection?
Patronscan’s forensic detection engine was built on over 110 million scans and 15 years of continuous development. It runs multiple authentication layers on every scan, not just a barcode read, cross-referencing document data against a library of known ID templates to identify counterfeit, altered, or expired documents. Venues using IVAC on cooler access points have seen up to a 96% reduction in liquor theft.
What happens when a fake ID or flagged patron is detected?
When the IVAC Wall Mount detects a fake ID, expired document, or flagged patron, it denies door access and sends an immediate SMS alert to designated venue staff or management. The system logs the attempt with a timestamp and captures an image where a connected camera is in use. All alerts are accessible through the admin portal in real time.
Is the IVAC Wall Mount suitable for outdoor installation?
The IVAC Wall Mount is designed for interior use or for installation in protected exterior positions such as inside a vestibule or between a set of double doors. It is not rated for direct open-air exterior exposure. For fully outdoor, weather-exposed access points, the IVAC Lite is the recommended product.
What is the scan speed?
The IVAC Wall Mount authenticates IDs from the local region in 3 to 4 seconds. IDs issued from further away, such as international documents, may take slightly longer as the system cross-references a broader document library. The speed is designed to support a steady flow of patrons without creating queue congestion.
Does the system work across multiple locations?
Yes. The admin portal supports multi-location management from a single account. All scan data, flags, and alerts are centralised, so operators can monitor activity across multiple doors or sites simultaneously. Patronscan’s flagged patron network also spans 341 cities, meaning a patron flagged at one connected venue is automatically known to others in the network
