Wireless locks integration
Key objective
Future-proof and flexible access control
A team of 250 employees, partners and preferred suppliers want to enrich people’s day or life. With hundreds of events every year and thousands of people every day, Rotterdam Ahoy must have a secure and flexible system with maximum manageability. The system must be able to integrate easily with other systems like ASSA ABLOY’s Aperio.
The solution
Security for both visitors and employees
- With AEOS, security is optimally managed for both visitors and employees – one of most the challenging parts of security at public venues
- Future-proof functionality: flexible access control system, based on open standards so obsolete integrations can easily be replaced
- Integration with ASSA ABLOY Aperio (wireless locks) and PSIM system
