Centrios, a new brand created within ASSA ABLOY to serve the small business market, announces their first shipment of hardware products to SECLOCK.

Centrios is a cloud-based access control solution developed to radically simplify the needs of small and growing businesses. By connecting the Centrios mobile app with Centrios smart readers and locks, owners and managers can quickly and easily manage access for all employees and visitors in one place.

The first shipment of Centrios products is now available for ordering through SECLOCK. End-users that are looking to purchase or have Centrios product installed at their business can find local support on the Centrios Where to Buy Finder the company’s website.

Bryan Lieberman, general manager for Centrios, shared that this shipment marks an important step forward in digital transformation for small and growing businesses. It offers small business owners improved connectivity, ease of access, quality, and versatility, enabling them to control access for employees or visitors across multiple physical sites with their phone, tablet or PC. Our channel partners also benefit from a solution that is easy to sell, is well supported, and helps them grow their business.

Echoing this sentiment, Justin Wormell, executive director of strategic accounts, SECLOCK added, “Centrios offers a fresh approach to access control systems, providing new functionality and operating practices for the owners and managers of small businesses – something we get asked for all the time. We are honored to be the first to stock Centrios products and look forward to the opportunities it brings.”

The Centrios Mobile App

The Centrios mobile app is designed to seamlessly integrate with Centrios smart readers and locks, according to the announcement. The simple-to-use mobile app allows owners and managers to grant access to employees and trusted vendors, manage access schedules, view access history reports, and users can unlock openings with a touch of their phone. You can find the Centrios mobile app on the Apple App Store or Google Play.

The Centrios Smart Reader

The Centrios Smart Reader enables users to unlock virtually any door with electrified hardware from the perimeter to the core of a small business, the announcement continues. The Smart Reader is an optimal access control solution for storefronts, employee entrances, storerooms, gates, offices, automatic doors, and access control retrofits.

The Smart Reader can be paired with other electronic access control systems, features Bluetooth mobile access and PIN code management which can be managed with the Centrios mobile app, and is easily installed and operated. The new Centrios Smart Reader is IP65 weather resistant, FCC/IC certified, ADA compliant, and operates in temperatures ranging from -40º to 140º F (-40º to 60º C).

Centrios offers bundled kits to make purchasing convenient and hassle-free for small business owners. Each bundle includes a Smart Reader and various access control components depending on the type of hardware required. Examples of what can be selected include electric strikes from HES and Adams Rite, power supply from Securitron, no touch request to exit switch from Alarm Controls, and Securitron DPS.

The Centrios Cylinder Lock

With technology from several new patents, the Centrios cylindrical lock is high performing, easy to install, and simple to use. It facilitates access via an optional mechanical key or Bluetooth mobile access, features privacy mode with an included door position sensor, and an LED for lock events and alarms.

The Centrios cylindrical lock typically operates for an entire year on four AA batteries and includes exterior emergency 9VDC power backup and a configurable auto relock. Small businesses can choose from one of four lever designs and five finishes, including the very popular black suede, satin chrome, bronze, bright brass, and satin nickel.

The Centrios cylindrical lock is ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 1 compliant, features UL10C 3-hour fire rating, is IP57 weather resistant, FCC/IC certified, ADA compliant, and operates in temperatures ranging from -40º to 140º F (-40º to 60º C).
