Allegion US is set to showcase its latest electronic access control solutions at the NAA Apartmentalize event from June 17 to 19. At Booth #2307, Allegion will present its interoperable solutions and integrations from Schlage, Zentra™ and Gatewise™. This annual event gathers multifamily housing professionals for education, networking, and learning about the latest industry trends.
The focus of these innovations is to address the historical visibility gap in multifamily properties, according to John Goodwin, General Manager and Vice President for multifamily access at Allegion. "Multifamily property operators have historically struggled with a visibility gap, often remaining unaware of an access issue at a door until a resident or staff member reports it," he stated.
Seamless integration
Allegion’s offerings integrate Zentra™ and Gatewise’s platforms with the Schlage XE360™ Series and RealSync™ technology, offering real-time visibility and control from the perimeter gate to apartment doors without additional hardware. Attendees at the event can experience these innovations firsthand.
The Schlage XE360™ Series now includes a new deadbolt option with an adaptable FleX Module™
The upcoming integration of Zentra and Gatewise with Allegion’s Yonomi™ Platform is set to expand their capabilities in the multifamily market. This collaboration provides property managers using either platform with seamless, centralised access through Allegion’s RealSync™ technology. This allows real-time connectivity using existing Wi-Fi infrastructure, eliminating the need for additional gateways or wiring.
Introducing new deadbolt options
The Schlage XE360™ Series now includes a new deadbolt option with an adaptable FleX Module™, offering flexibility between Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi RealSync™ modes. This feature aims to simplify decision-making for property operators regarding security technology.
Zentra and Gatewise are collaborating to offer a modern guest access experience, removing the necessity of physical intercoms. Their solution allows guests to scan a QR code at a property's entrance to access a digital directory and call residents, who can grant entry via smartphone.
Amit Sherman, VP of multifamily access solutions at Allegion, emphasized their focus. "Through partnerships with innovators like Zentra and Gatewise, we are redefining what’s possible in property security," he said. "With every integration and enhancement, we’re focused on empowering multifamily professionals to adapt quickly, optimise workflows, and maintain the highest standards of security and convenience."
Campus-to-community experience
Allegion is also promoting its newly announced Campus-to-Community experience. This mobile-first ecosystem enhances the student journey from campus to off-campus residences. By uniting hardware, mobile credentials, software, and services, it delivers seamless experiences and reduced operational complexity for both students and operators.
For those unable to attend the show in person, Allegion offers several online resources. Multifamily housing professionals can delve into the Solving for Multifamily Podcast, digital materials, and virtual training sessions to stay informed about the latest in access control solutions.
Allegion US, a provider of security solutions, technology and services, will be showcasing new interoperable electronic access control solutions and integrations from Schlage, Zentra™ and Gatewise™ June 17–19 at NAA Apartmentalize (Booth #2307), an annual event that brings together multifamily housing professionals from around the world for three days of education, networking and learning about the latest industry trends and best practices.
“Multifamily property operators have historically struggled with a visibility gap, often remaining unaware of an access issue at a door until a resident or staff member reports it,” said John Goodwin, Allegion GM, VP, multifamily access.
Access control solutions
“Integrating Zentra™ and Gatewise with Schlage XE360™ Series with RealSync™ gives property teams real time visibility and control from the perimeter gate to the apartment door, with no extra hardware required. That’s a complete solution and the kind of software impact that genuinely changes how a building runs.”
Show attendees can join Allegion security consultants at booth #2307 for in-depth conversations around seamless access and have an up-close look at the latest innovations in access control solutions unified by software platforms with integrated hardware and support services for multifamily properties:
Real-time connectivity
Zentra and Gatewise are soon to expand their capabilities in the multifamily market through an upcoming integration with Allegion’s Yonomi™ Platform. This strategic collaboration empowers property managers utilising either software platform with seamless, centralised access to Allegion’s groundbreaking RealSync™ technology. Utilising Zentra's Access Core™ to bridge these systems, both Zentra and Gatewise customers can now experience persistent, real-time connectivity via a property's existing Wi-Fi infrastructure, allowing operators to send commands and verify lock status in seconds, without the need for additional gateways, hubs or investments in wiring.
This powerful, real-time experience is delivered through the proven Schlage XE360™ Series, which is expanding its multifamily hardware lineup with a sleek, highly anticipated new deadbolt option. Like the rest of the XE360 family, the new deadbolt features an interchangeable FleX Module™ that allows properties to easily choose between offline Bluetooth® or the Wi-Fi-enabled RealSync™ mode supported by Zentra and Gatewise.
High-maintenance physical intercoms
Zentra and Gatewise are combining forces to deliver a modern guest access experience solution for multifamily properties. By bringing together Zentra’s robust cloud access control and the Gatewise Guest Access, this joint offering eliminates the need for expensive, high-maintenance physical intercoms. Guests simply scan a QR code at the entrance to access a digital directory and call the resident, who can then grant access remotely right from their smartphone. Together, Zentra and Gatewise provide a frictionless, hardware-light entry experience that enables securing the property from the perimeter gate all the way to the apartment door.
“At Allegion, locks and hardware are just the starting point,” said Amit Sherman, Allegion VP, multifamily access solutions & operations. “Through partnerships with innovators like Zentra and Gatewise, we are redefining what’s possible in property security. With every integration and enhancement, we’re focused on empowering multifamily professionals to adapt quickly, optimise workflows and maintain the highest standards of security and convenience.”
Improving resident experience
Allegion is also highlighting its newly announced Campus-to-Community experience. This is the first unified, mobile-first ecosystem that connects the entire student journey—on campus and off—eliminating fragmentation and improving resident experience.
By bringing hardware, mobile credentials, best-in-class software integrations and expert services together into one connected platform, it eliminates the friction that slows operators down and frustrates residents. Students gain one seamless mobile-access experience wherever their day takes them, while operators benefit from fewer service calls, smoother turnovers, and dramatically reduced complexity.
Multifamily housing professionals
Backed by Allegion’s century of trust and a broad ecosystem of software and integration partners, Campus-to-Community delivers a secure, modern student housing experience operators can confidently scale.
Show attendees can round out their day-of experience with live games, demos and food at the booth. Multifamily housing professionals who will not be attending the show in person this year can utilise Allegion’s online resources including the Solving for Multifamily Podcast and a wide array of digital resources and virtual trainings.
