dormakaba has announced significant uptake of its E-Plex™ 7900 electronic lock among integrators, a development facilitated by the recent launch of an open Application Programming Interface (API).
Key partners such as Genetec, Imron, Hartmann, and Lockt have embraced this lock, marking a substantial expansion in the network of integrators. These collaborations span a variety of widely implemented access control platforms across enterprise, institutional, and commercial settings, providing seamless integration with the E-Plex 7900 for environments including healthcare, higher education, commercial offices, government, and mixed-use facilities.
Expanding centralised monitoring
The E-Plex 7900 is crafted to offer enterprise-level security access at an economical price, making it an appealing choice for organisations intent on expanding door coverage while retaining system oversight.
Thanks to the new open API, the electronic lock can interface with established access control systems, enhancing centralised monitoring and extending credential management and event tracking to a broader array of doors and applications. This growth in partnerships allows organisations to leverage existing infrastructure, avoiding the pitfalls of technology lock-in.

"Customers want solutions that integrate cleanly into the platforms they already use," stated Nick O’Carroll, Senior Vice President of Access Hardware Solutions and Access Channel Sales at dormakaba North America. "Along with our trusted partners, we are building momentum behind the E-Plex 7900 platform as a scalable, API-driven electronic locking solution for organisations seeking flexibility, affordability, and long-term system interoperability."
The introduction of a new reader option that supports Farpointe Conekt Mobile Credentials within both 13.56MHz and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) formats, as well as digital wallet functionality, signifies the E-Plex 7900's ongoing innovation.
Event highlight and future prospects
dormakaba plans to exhibit the expanding ecosystem of the E-Plex 7900 at booth #20007 during the International Security Conference and Exposition (ISC) West 2026 in Las Vegas from March 23 to 27.
Attendees will have the opportunity to observe live demonstrations of the E-Plex 7900 API and its integrations with various access control platforms, highlighting its growing capabilities and adaptability in the security sector.
