Amazon Key Access Control System
Amazon today announced the Amazon Key Access Control System—a lineup of customizable property access solutions for multi-family buildings and gated communities.
Amazon Key streamlines deliveries and building access, giving customers control over who can enter their property or letting them answer their building's front door from anywhere. The new Key Access Control System enables residents and staff to manage access, buzz themselves or visitors into a property, and verify visitors in the Ring app before granting them access.
“Amazon Key has helped customers avoid missed orders and deliveries with secure, customer-managed access to homes and garages for several years now,” said Kaushik Mani, Director of Amazon Key. “Our new Access Control System takes this to the next level, introducing a range of new tools and options designed for property managers and residents who live in multi-family buildings and gated communities. It provides building managers and residents with a range of modern, digital tools that enable them to conveniently and securely manage access to buildings and homes so they can verify visitors and staff, accept deliveries, and even get takeout dropped off—all via the Ring app. It’s a whole new level of convenience."
Convenient and Secure Building Access
To address property owners prioritizing smartphone-based control and the growing demand for smart security solutions, Amazon Key offers features like online access management, remote control via smartphone, and virtual keys.
The Amazon Key Access Control System includes four different solutions—each of which is professionally installed to allow for quick, easy entry into the building. With each solution, customers gain the ability to admit visitors from anywhere using the Ring app and auto-access for authorized delivery drivers.
The four different solutions include:
-
Virtual Key: A simple upgrade to a property’s existing intercom that allows residents to gain self-entry or grant visitors access through the Ring app. Virtual Key does not enable video-based functionality.
-
Intercom Boost: A small tag that you can add to an existing call box that enables visitors to view a resident directory and initiate one-way video and two-way audio calls with residents via smartphone.
-
Intercom Lite: Includes the same functionality as Intercom Boost but is offered by itself for buildings without an existing call box or as an addition to an existing one.
-
Intercom Plus: A sleek, touchscreen-based solution that allows visitors to browse the resident directory or enter building access codes directly on the screen.
Availability
The Amazon Key Access Control System Virtual Key and Intercom Lite are available for order today. Intercom Boost and Intercom Plus will be available this summer. For more information on installing the Amazon Key Access Control System at your property, contact our sales team for a detailed quote.
