For one of the UK's leading science universities, flexibility is the key to Aperio® from ASSA ABLOY. After upgrading security at the Manor Park Campus with an access control system using Aperio® wireless lock technology, the University of Surrey immediately looked to roll the technology out to more sites.

“The installation of Aperio® has proven hugely popular and we are already extending their use to student accommodation and looking at ways to install the solution across the main University,” says Alan Donnachie, Deputy Director of Estates and Facilities at the University of Surrey.

Secure and monitor site access

The university's cost-effective wireless Aperio® solution now allows campus facilities managers to secure and monitor access at the site, conduct real-time audits, and update access permissions instantly.

Andrew Bowes, Director of ASSA ABLOY's installation partner WOT Security, said: “The great benefit of working with Aperio® is its flexibility to adapt to any situation and seamlessly integrate into the ARX access control system and other systems, to enable a wire-free deployment, without the need to modify the doors.”

Available on the global market place, ASSA ABLOY’s Aperio® Technology enables a wide range of access control providers to cost-effectively integrate non-wired doors with mechanical locks into access control systems.

Recently ranked by the Guardian newspaper among the UK's top 10 universities, the University of Surrey houses 18,000 students and 3,000 staff across campuses in Guildford, south-east England.
