The Benefits of Smartphone Access Control
Smartphone access control is transforming how properties manage secure entry. As technology evolves, residents, employees, and property managers increasingly prefer keyless, mobile-based access over traditional keys, fobs, and cards—making access simpler, safer, and more efficient.
From apartment buildings and offices to gated pools, fitness centers and marinas, smartphone access solutions are redefining how people enter a space—making access faster, safer, and more flexible.
Why Smartphone Access is the Future
1. Convenience at Your Fingertips – Your Phone is Your Key™
No more carrying and keeping track of multiple keys or worrying about lost access cards. Smartphone access allows users to unlock doors, gates, garages, and amenities directly from their phones, making entry fast and simple. Entegrity’s smartphone access solutions, such as the Entegrity Deadbolt go a step further by eliminating the need for a network or Wi-Fi, ensuring smooth operation even in high-traffic environments.
2. Enhanced Security
Traditional keys can be copied or lost, creating potential security risks. Digital credentials (smartkeys) used in Smartphone-based access control cannot be shared or duplicated. Property manager can instantly add users, controlling who can access certain areas and when. This ensures both management and resident security while providing peace of mind for property teams.
3. Flexible and Remote Management
With cloud-based access platforms, administrators can manage entry from anywhere. Temporary credentials can be issued to visitors, repairmen, delivery personnel, and permissions can be updated in real time—without being on-site. This provides both convenience and peace of mind for residents and administrators alike. Entegrity’s Cloud Management Tools let property teams manage access anytime from their phones, tablets, or laptops with a simple, intuitive user interface requiring no special training.
4. Tracking and Accountability
Smartphone access systems provide real-time tracking of who enters and when. This level of accountability can help increase security and provide insights on high-traffic areas or shared spaces, making it easier to monitor activity and optimize operations.
5. Scalable
Whether it’s one door or one thousand, one location or multiple sites, smartphone access systems scale effortlessly. They integrate with existing doors and access points, making them suitable for apartments, office complexes, gyms, marinas, and gated communities.
6. Enhancing Everyday Experiences
By replacing traditional keys and fobs with smartphone access, residents and employees can enjoy a seamless experience. People can move through secure areas effortlessly, access shared amenities, and enjoy secure access control. Their phone (which they always have with them) becomes their key, making entry frustration-free.
7. Boost NOI and Reduce Operational Costs
Smartphone access systems can also significantly boost NOI and reduce operating costs by eliminating many of the expensive, time-consuming tasks and frustrations that come with traditional keys, fobs, and card systems. Property teams no longer have to purchase, program, or replace physical credentials, and turnover becomes far cheaper because access can be granted or revoked instantly from anywhere. This reduces labor hours, eliminates rekeying costs, and prevents losses from unreturned keys or unauthorized copies. It also minimizes lockouts and after-hours service calls, freeing staff time and allowing them to focus on other important matters. It saves money but also helps properties operate more efficiently.
