Zentra’s Apple Wallet Integration for Secure Access

Zentra, a brand of Allegion®, has introduced a new feature that allows residents to add their resident keys to Apple Wallet for easy and secure access to their apartment using their iPhone or Apple Watch. This innovation aims to enhance the living experience for residents while improving security and operational efficiency for property owners and managers.

Some of the key features of this integration include:

Seamless, Secure Access: Residents can unlock doors with a tap of their Apple device, eliminating the need for physical keys.

Operational Efficiency: Property owners and managers can remotely issue and manage keys, reducing physical key management hassles.

Secure and Private Experience: Data is encrypted and protected against tampering, ensuring residents’ security and privacy.

OnGuard Ranger Partners with Zentra for Enhanced Multi-Family Security Solutions

OnGuard Ranger is a newly integrated partner on the Zentra platform. “We intend to deploy this solution for multi-family applications, encompassing new and existing facilities. We recognize the significant value in Allegion’s Schlage Wireless lock for individual apartments. “The addition of Apple Wallet integration, with Android support anticipated, introduces significant convenience and security for a nominal fee. As ‘tap to pay’ becomes more prevalent, we now offer ‘tap to unlock’,” said Kirk Booher, Co-owner and CEO of OnGuard Ranger Security.

“This new feature reflects our commitment to prioritizing the needs of multifamily property owners and operators,” said Dave Ilardi, senior vice president and president of Allegion Americas. “We are excited to bring an enhanced living experience to residents, bolstered by improved security and streamlined operations.”

Benefits include:

Operational Efficiency for Multifamily Properties: Property owners, operators, and managers will benefit from Zentra’s solution’s streamlined operations. This not only streamlines operations but also enhances the overall resident experience.

Resident keys in Wallet take full advantage of the privacy and security features already built into iPhones and Apple Watches. Zentra has plans to expand its capabilities to the new Schlage XE360 Series later this year.

Focusing on resident experience and security, Zentra continues to lead the industry in smart access control for multifamily properties. Contact OnGuard for a free quote and questions are always welcome. 317.572.5777
