The Challenge

Manual Time and Access Systems Are Failing You

Manufacturing facilities with hourly employees face the same problems every day: inaccurate time records, keys that get lost, and zero visibility into who's on-site.

Payroll Headaches

Manual time clocks and paper timesheets lead to errors, disputes, and overtime surprises. Time theft alone costs more than most companies realize.

Key Management Chaos

Who has keys? Which doors do they open? When someone leaves, do you re-key the whole building? Physical keys create ongoing security headaches.

After-Hours Blind Spots

Who's in the building at 2 AM? In an emergency, you need to know who's on-site — not guess from a parking lot head count.

No Job Code Granularity

Employees split time between projects and tasks — but paper timesheets make it nearly impossible to track where the hours actually went.

Buddy Punching

One employee clocks in for another. RFID badges tied to individual employees make buddy punching impossible — the badge is the identity.

Rip-and-Replace Fatigue

Every vendor wants you to replace your locks, your time clocks, your entire setup. You need a system that works with what you have.

The Solution

One System. Two Solutions. Same Badge.

GRIT SignOn handles both time tracking and door access through a single RFID badge. Use them together or start with one and add the other when you're ready.

Time Tracking

Track Every Hour. Automatically.

Employees badge in at the SignOn kiosk when they arrive, badge out when they leave. Shift hours calculated to the second. Job codes let them log time against specific projects or cost centers.

  • Badge tap clock-in / clock-out
  • Job code tracking per shift
  • Overtime calculation and alerts
  • CSV export for payroll integration
  • Timesheet approval workflows
  • Real-time shift dashboard
Door Access

Control Every Door. Keep Your Locks.

The GRIT Latch works with any powered-to-lock or powered-to-unlock latch you already have. No rip-and-replace — just GRITify your existing door hardware.

  • BYOL — works with your existing latches
  • Per-door, per-user permission control
  • Scheduled access windows
  • Remote unlock from any device
  • Complete entry/exit audit trail
  • Emergency lockdown with one click
Better Together

When time tracking and door access share a badge, walking through the front door starts the clock. One badge, one action, two systems handled.

Step by Step

How It Works

01
Employee Arrives

Employee taps their RFID badge at the entrance reader. The GRIT Latch releases and the clock starts — shift begin time is logged.

02
Select Job Code

At the SignOn kiosk, employees select a job code for time allocation. Switch codes mid-shift with another tap.

03
Work Normally

The system runs in the background. Real-time dashboard shows who's on-site, which doors were accessed, and active shift status.

04
Badge Out

Shift end. Employee taps out at any reader or kiosk. Hours calculated to the second, including job code splits. Overtime flagged automatically.

05
Review and Approve

Supervisors review timesheets on the dashboard. Approve, flag discrepancies, or add notes. All changes tracked with an audit trail.

06
Export to Payroll

One-click CSV export with hours, job codes, overtime, and approval status. Your data, your format.

Capabilities

Built for Manufacturing. Built to Retrofit.

BYOL — Bring Your Own Latch

Works with any powered-to-lock or powered-to-unlock mechanism on your doors. No new locks. Just GRITify what you have.

To-the-Second Accuracy

RFID badge taps are timestamped at the hardware level. Every shift start, break, and clock-out is exact.

Job Code Tracking

Track hours against projects, departments, or cost centers. Switch codes mid-shift without clocking out.

Works with Existing Badges

HID proximity cards, existing employee IDs, NFC-enabled phones. No new credentials to issue.

Real-Time Occupancy

Live dashboard shows who's on-site, who entered which door, and when. Critical for emergency muster.

Payroll-Ready Export

CSV exports with hours, overtime, job codes, approval status — one click and it's ready for processing.

Tamper-Proof Records

Hardware-logged at the reader level. No manual edits, no buddy punching, no disputes.

Remote Management

Grant door access from your phone. Lock down the facility instantly. Revoke badges in seconds — from anywhere.

Hardware

The Gear Behind the Solution

Industrial-grade, plug-and-play hardware. Designed and assembled in the USA.

The GRIT Philosophy

Meet Your Infrastructure Where It Is

GRIT doesn't ask you to rip out what's working. Your locks, your doors, your employee badges — they stay. We add a layer of intelligence on top. The GRIT Latch controls any powered latch mechanism. The Track Reader reads any RFID credential. The Hub ties it all together with a local dashboard and data that never leaves your building.

That's what GRITified means: your existing infrastructure, made smart, made accountable, made modern — without starting over.
