PDQ Lock Solution Is Mobile-Based

pdqSMART
January 26, 2021

The pdqSMART stand-alone and networked access control device lineups combine the added security of a deadbolt and the easy egress of a lever, linking them together for simultaneous action, a perfect solution for multi-family, senior living and student housing applications. The new lock expands the company’s smart device portfolio, which includes Grade 1 and Grade 2 cylindricals, Grade 1 mortise, heavy duty deadbolt and exit device trim, smart switches, and card readers. With mobile centric Bluetooth access control users can lock or unlock from their smartphones. It supports stand-alone and wireless networked access control devices and is perfect for retrofits, since devices fit standard door prep. The products support credentials to meet user preferences: smartphone, RFID, PIN Pad, smart remote, smart watch and key. The devices use cloud-hosted software with wireless mobile management, and the system is scalable for thousands of devices and users (networked version). No hard wiring, control panels, servers, or IT gurus are required. Locks are future-proofed and never obsolete with free firmware updates.
