A door access control method includes detecting whether a person is intending to pass through a door access control device. Then, it is identified whether a body temperature of the person near the door access control device exceeds a threshold value. The door access control device carries out an unlocking judgment procedure when the body temperature is below the threshold value. The unlocking judgment procedure is not carried out when the body temperature is not below the threshold value. Next, it is identified whether the person is qualified to pass through the door access control device based on the unlocking judgment. The door access control device remains in a locking state when the person is identified as not qualified to pass through the door access control device. The unlocking state is lifted when the person is identified as qualified to pass through the door access control device.
