Allegion Schlage ® AD-Series
Genetec plans to support the Allegion Schlage ® AD-Series of hardwired and wireless locks . Through this integration , the Schlage AD 300 and 400 Series can be seamlessly integrated into Genetec™ Synergis™ — the IP-based access control module in Genetec™ Security Center , the company ’ s unified IP security platform that combines access control , video surveillance and automatic license plate recognition ( ALPR ). This integration will offer a cost-effective and scalable solution for a wide range of customers , including higher education , healthcare and commercial real estate establishments . Customers can expect to enroll Schlage AD-Series into their Synergis™ access control system in Security Center version 5.5 ( expected in Q2 , 2016 ), and will be available through the Genetec™ Channel Partner Program . The addition of Schlage to the Genetec technology partner ecosystem will also give systems integrators access to an ever-greater choice of industry-standard hardwired and wireless electronic locks . In many cases , overall system design and deployment will be greatly simplified , allowing Genetec certified channel partners to leverage wireless locks that significantly reduce installation time and labor costs typically associated with hardwired solutions , without having to compromise on reliability .
“ We are excited to announce our collaboration with Genetec ,” said Robert Gaulden , Allegion ’ s U . S . Director , Aftermarket & Electronic Sales . “ Bringing together leading solutions for enterprise-class access control software and responsive and durable locks is a win for our customers . The integration of Schlage AD-Series locks with the Genetec Synergis access control platform enables organizations to extend their solution without compromising security .” Through this integration , users will be able to leverage the lock platform ’ s adaptability to upgrade the security level on credentials without the need to replace the full lock . Existing Allegion customers will also be able to migrate to a true IP access control solution without having to reinvest in additional or replacement access control hardware .
