OPERATING HANDLE WITH ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM

An actuation handle (4) for attaching to an outside of a door (2) has an access control system designed to control a motorized lock, that contains an evaluation unit and a reader (8) for reading and identifying a transponder located in a first detection range (12) defined by the reader (8). The reader (8) is integrated in the actuation handle (4). There is also a sensor (10) for detecting an object located in a second detection range (14) defined by the sensor (10), which is coupled to the evaluation unit and integrated in the actuation handle (4). The sensor (10) is located on a first section (16) of the actuation handle (4), and the second detection range (14) extends outward from the first section (16). The evaluation unit is configured to activate the sensor (10) to detect an object in the second detection range (14) after identifying a transponder.
