DoorKing (DKS) Compatible Cards & Fobs
DoorKing (DKS) is a widely used gate and access control brand in residential and commercial properties, with its DKProx 1508-series credentials using the AWID 26-bit proximity protocol — meaning standard HID cards will not work on DKProx readers. American Key Cards supplies DKProx-compatible clamshell cards and key fobs encoded to your facility code, providing a direct-purchase alternative to DoorKing's dealer-only ordering channel.
