Aperio electronic locks are retrofittable to existing doors and provide ease and safety for all – with remote monitoring of door use by staff and family, and lock settings that can be changed over time to adapt to the resident’s needs.
Aperio provides aged care facility managers with a simple, intelligent way to upgrade the controllability and the security level of their premises. The heart of Aperio is a short distance wireless communication protocol; designed to link a real-time electronic access control system.
Aperio technology is ideal for aged care as the technology can be used in many areas, including doors, drug cabinets and server cabinets.
METLIFECARE SEE BENEFITS
ASSA ABLOY worked with four Metlifecare retirement villages in the Tauranga region to modernise their door management solutions.
So, why was Aperio chosen over traditional access control?
The cost saving in labour and materials. Example: While the mortice locks were being cut in and installed on site, the escutcheons were programmed and setup in the workshop.
The flexibility to quickly add extra doors or reconfigure existing doors was a main consideration.
For the facility managers, Aperio sits on their access control system as a piece of hardware with no need for another server or integration.
SMART TECHNOLOGY
Aperio conveniently retrofits to existing doors. The lock requires no cabling and can seamlessly integrate with existing access control systems.
Sophisticated battery powered technology communicates wirelessly to a hub. The hub is then wired directly to the access control system and enables standard real-time access control functionality at significantly reduced costs to that of a hard-wired door.
APERIO AU100 DIGITAL LOCK
Traditionally Aperio has been a solution for internal doors only, however the AU100 can now be used on covered main entry doors. The strong vandal-proof keypad is weather rated for outdoor conditions including protection against light rain, sun, and dust.
When it comes to peace of mind, the Aperio AU100 has a unique feature, whereby the internal door handle and door position can be wirelessly monitored – ensuring the well-being of the resident. ✓ Wireless battery-powered locks ✓ Real-time relays back to support centre ✓ Central control with master key overrides ✓ Rex (internal lever monitoring) ✓ Remote door opening/locking functions ✓ Emergency egress ✓ Fire rated
