7 / 33   Keypad

Description
Definately the most odd find of the day - a keypad wired into a hatch in the ground. Considering the age of this place, this is pretty high tech Resident Evil sort of stuff. Further proof that this is the beginning of the aqueduct.

  I wish the pictures I took inside of there were not subject to a non-disclosure agreement. It goes down to another locked door (much thicker), and down about 50 feet to water quality metering equipment. And that aqueduct is still in use. It supply's water to parts of the Bronx. It was a very interesting trip. Knowing the DEP commissioner helped.

  It's actually not just a keypad, it's a keypad and an RF-ID card reader. To be specific, it's an HID ProxPro with Keypad. You wouldn't be able to get in with just the code, or just the card, you'd need both. Also, knowing HID, the cards would be virtually impossible to reproduce without incredible resources. To learn more about this card reader, check HID's website:

  I would think that the keypad/RFID reader would allow an authorized individual to open the hatches without setting off an alarm.

  Yeah that's correct fatLouie. It would disable the alarm or just that particular partition of the alarm system if there were other areas of the system armed.
