## Compatibility decides the sale

An access control order often fails because one part does not work with another. Say which lock a controller can drive, which power supply suits it and which readers connect. If a fingerprint terminal needs specific software, say which. A buyer who can see compatibility at a glance trusts the listing.

## Test before you deliver

Power the device, enrol a test finger or card and confirm that the lock operates. A few minutes of testing prevents defective-item refunds, which suppliers take back under the returns policy.

## Stock by project size

Small offices need one terminal and one lock. Larger sites need controllers, many readers and software. List single items for small orders and sets for projects, and say what software is required.

## Common access control mistakes

Not stating the voltage of a lock, mixing fail-safe and fail-secure types, and forgetting the power supply. State these details and your listing becomes easier to trust.

## A typical scenario

A supplier lists three terminals with clear compatibility notes and gets a request for locks and power supplies in the same week. Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named vendor.

## Common mistakes

Listing models you do not hold. Vague titles. Skipping specs.

## Quick checklist

Pick three lines. Write clear titles. Add photos. Submit for review.
