Being always connected allows for real-time changes to be made at any time. Control and monitor your building from anywhere as you update access changes instantly, like remote lock or unlock or add/revoke a credential. No more waiting on a scheduled sync. And every command gets a confirmation back, so you always know the action went through.

Real-World Benefits

• When a resident or tenant moves in or out, property management can immediately grant or revoke their access without the need to visit the door.
• A contract or service worker like a plumber or painter is granted temporary access.
• A resident or tenant forgets their keys and requests a remote unlock from the leasing office.
• During an emergency, management can lock down the entire property or specific openings, like common areas, instantly.
• All of this can be completed by the property manager remotely using the access control software mobile or web applications, allowing them control from anywhere – they do not have to be on-property. 

RealSync™ gives you immediate alerts about what is happening at the opening. Staff can request and receive audit history anytime, as well as set up auto notifications whenever an alert is triggered, like forced entry.  This enables fast remediation of a possible security threat, which lowers risk.

RealSync also sends predictive notifications that reduce physical visits for lockouts and maintenance. The lock’s health visibility being the biggest benefactor – for example, staff can receive alerts when battery life is low or critical. This removes the operational labor and cost of waiting for a staff member to visit the lock to make a change, like swapping batteries.

Real-World Benefits

• A resident or tenant locked out late at night receives a remote unlock, avoiding a costly locksmith visit.
• Maintenance staff can unlock units remotely for repairs, reducing scheduling delays and on-site visits, and significantly reducing operational expenses.

From a physical hardware and wiring perspective, devices with RealSync™ are simple to deploy. Devices that support this connectivity require no additional infrastructure compared to traditional real-time openings (like a gateway or wiring) as they connect using the building’s existing Wi-Fi® network. This means that for properties that have Wi-Fi distributed throughout, the scalability of this is a game changer. 

Real-World Benefits

• New multifamily construction projects with distributed Wi-Fi can deploy smart access to all openings, including resident doors, without adding complex wiring or infrastructure. This allows for real-time access control to be deployed further into the building than previously possible, ensuring residents are safer than ever before.
• Properties can modernize access control across multiple openings with minimal disruption to residents or tenants and daily operations.

Devices with RealSync™ save money relative to both CapEx and OpEx. Reduce upfront costs at installation by avoiding additional infrastructure hardware like gateways and cabling or wires. This makes rolling a truck for deployment a thing of the past. The average new construction project with a budget of $100,000 and five traditional “hard wired” openings can see an approximate savings of 60-70% per opening by opting for a wireless lock that uses RealSync via Wi-Fi®.

RealSync cuts long-term OpEx by slashing physical visits to the lock. OTA firmware updates, real-time status reporting, and health monitoring let maintenance teams rely on the system to flag issues proactively, so they spend less time, labor, and cost on trips to the door.

Real-World Benefits

• The building uses existing Wi-Fi infrastructure to enable smart locks without extra hardware.
• No need for costly gateways or additional wiring, simplifying upgrades for existing buildings.
