6 solutions for keyless locks
Most organizations still use physical keys to ensure their security and grant access to employees, customers or tenants. Often out of ignorance that there are other solutions. Solutions that are so advanced these days that they make physical keys completely redundant. These solutions are not only more secure, they can also be managed digitally in EasySecure's comprehensive control center.
But why are these keyless door opening solutions safer? And why would you bother having your physical locks replaced with digital solutions? In this blog we describe the advantages of locks that can be opened digitally. And we give you 6 solutions to replace your physical keys.
The advantages of digital locks without keys
Using physical keys carries enormous risk. The moment one key is lost, your entire security is compromised. One lost key in the wrong hands can lead to theft and the enormous damage that comes with it.
Digital locking systems offer the same security as traditional locking systems. But if a card or tag is lost, you can delete the associated access rights at a glance. Online and remotely. Every digital locking system can be integrated into an Access Control as a Service platform (ACaaS) such as EasySecure.
The benefits of using an AcaaS platform are great. Let's list them:
1. Easily grant and remove remote access permissions
One-time visitor? With EasySecure you can quickly grant remote access rights. This means you don't have to be physically present, which saves time and money.
2. Can be connected to other security systems
Traditional locking systems with physical keys cannot be linked to other security systems. Digital locks do. By linking multiple security systems you increase the security level of your organization and maximize control. You can think of license plate registration, attendance registration or visitor registration.
3. It is extremely scalable
The administrative burden when using physical locking systems is often high, especially if your organization is growing rapidly. Having keys made is expensive and time-consuming. While the risk of key loss only increases with growth.
With EasySecure, a growing organization is no problem at all. Users are easy to add digitally and the number of cards or tags you can use is unlimited. Would you rather be completely key-free? With the EasySecure mobile app you can even open locking systems with your mobile phone.
