Case Study on RFID Application for Access Control & Security

Background & Challenges

Our client was a multi-family property manager who services multiple apartment buildings in Texas. Their challenges from previous traditional keys include security vulnerability with the risks of unauthorized key duplication, inconvenience with tenants misplacing keys, minimal visibility on data, and delays and complexities during tenant turnover. The customer turned to our RFID solutions to not only address reliability issues but also enhance security measures and operational efficiencies.

Our Approach

Replaced traditional keys with high-quality ABS RFID keyfobs
Programmed the keyfobs to have the ability to read/write/re-write for different access levels based on resident profiles and specific permissions
Performed rigorous testing procedures to ensure the reliability and durability
Integrated with the tenant database, facilitating real-time updates and tenant turnover
Collaborated with the customer to ensure compatibility and minimize disruptions

Results

The transition resulted in an annual cost savings of 52% in rekeying expenses and 71% in maintenance costs.
Incidents of unauthorized access and tenant turnover processing time were reduced by 85% and 37%, respectively, following the transition to ABS RFID key fobs.
