Assa Abloy’s Access Control’s Aperio locking solution has been installed and interfaced to the ACS PLAN Access Control System at the London offices of international law firm Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer. The London office has recently undergone some refurbishment and at the same time security arrangements were reviewed. Following significant research by the security team and ACS who provide the current PLAN access control system, Aperio smart technology was installed as a solution to enable wireless links, without any need to modify the doors. To date, Aperio cylinders have been fitted on a variety of applications, including all IT cabinets, high security maintenance areas and some offices. All have been integrated with the ACS PLAN Security system via Mifare technology. The Aperio wireless locking solution allows free egress via the lock handle when required and the use of existing card credentials on additional online doors. This provides real time audits and instant updates of access restrictions through the existing access control system, says Assa Abloy.
