ASSA ABLOY Access Control's innovative Aperio™ locking technology is now able to upgrade master key systems to instantly introduce access control convenience to any premises.

Aperio™ uses smart technology to enable the wireless integration of mechanical locks into existing access control systems with minimal door modification, allowing for easy and cost effective expansion of mechanically locked doors.

The ability to co-exist with an existing master key suite, provides end users with a high quality and secure solution, with all the benefits of access control where it is required.

By utilizing Aperio™ in this way, requests for access control can be achieved, whilst retaining existing card credentials and removing key control issues, providing an overall cost effective solution, with minimal modification to doors and premises.

Says Russell Wagstaff, Technical Director of ASSA ABLOY Access Control: "The real benefit of AperioTM has always been its versatility to work with almost any existing access control system and instantly upgrade the featured mechanical hardware on doors.

"Aperio can be used to develop a truly bespoke cost effective security solution, which is quick and easy to install, that offers the additional convenience and flexibility inherent with an access control solution, whilst also solving key management issues."

Aperio™ has been designed to work with a wide range of lockcases and cylinders.
