Codelocks International has launched ConnectShare, a range of smart locks that use mobile phones to make access and management easy.
Part of the Connect by Codelocks solutions, ConnectShare locks have three access modes – user code, RFID card and mobile phone. They are managed through the Codelocks Connect App, which allows remote management of the locks from a mobile device.
Joanne Milne-Rowe, managing director at Codelocks International said: “Administrators can send a time-bound credential directly to a user’s phone, give them access to a lock, and revoke it at any time. The process is entirely device-to-device, with no hidden subscription fees and with no reliance on an internet connection at the lock itself. Users simply download the free app, and admins can remotely give them access with a few clicks.
“The Codelocks Connect App is central to the products too. Deep down, this is a standalone lock that’s easy to install and maintain. But paired with our app, it becomes the flexible and powerful solution that modern shared spaces need.”
Key features that can be enabled using the app include Codelocks NetCode Technology for generating date and time-sensitive codes, GuestCode functionality that lets guests and temporary users set their own access code for the duration of their stay, and Do Not Disturb mode, which gives occupants privacy control – ideal for private spaces and changing rooms.
The new features also include Multi-Admin functionality, which allows operators to assign shared management of individual locks, and Dual Authorisation, which adds an extra layer of protection for higher-security applications by requiring two valid credentials to be presented to unlock.
