Mul-T-Lock SMARTair wireless access control

SMARTair hardware

Property and facilities managers: this work goes on your work order, with your NTE, alongside the doors, locks and security systems in the same building. See facilities & property management.

• Wireless electronic escutcheons with built-in reader and lever, such as SMARTair i-max (card, PIN or phone)
• Electronic cylinders for doors where an escutcheon won't fit
• Wall readers for entrances and doors with electric locks
• Cards and fobs, with the same credential across SMARTair doors

How SMARTair is managed

SMARTair can run at different levels, and doors can be upgraded later: standalone (programmed at the door), update-on-card, where access rights and lost-card blacklists travel on the user's card after it is updated at a wall reader, and wireless/online, where doors talk to the software through communication hubs for real-time changes and audit trails. Mul-T-Lock's SMARTair i-max literature also lists PIN, card plus PIN, and smartphone opening with the Openow mobile app, where virtual keys can be sent, changed and cancelled; we confirm what your doors and software support before we quote.

Where it fits

• Offices and suites that need access control on interior doors without new wiring
• Co-op and condo amenity rooms: gyms, roof decks, laundry and bike rooms
• Storage rooms, package rooms and back-of-house in multi-unit buildings
• Buildings already on a Mul-T-Lock master key system that want to add electronic access door by door

Installed by the same team as the door

Our locksmiths prep the door and fit the escutcheon or cylinder, our door division fixes the door if it doesn't latch, and our low-voltage technicians set up the readers and software. For wired systems and maglocks, see access control.
