Many access control situations have been using standardised proximity protocols for many years. Aged care properties have not been able to enjoy the benefits of electronic locking - it scared the elderly residents and was difficult to use.
 
Safeport Security Solutions has released LA5-3 proximity lock, specifically designed for aged care properties and Australian conditions. Now the benefits of electronic locking can be had with the Safeport LA5-3

  • Using standard inexpensive Mifare S50 cards that allow integration into many existing access control systems
  • Coding the cards is easy and the resident only has to brush the card or keyfob close to the lock to access their room
  • It has a small form factor that will enhance any room décor
  • Staff, resident and guest access is easy to manage for both individual rooms and common areas (front doors, staff doors, lifts, car park etc ;)
  • Card management has been simplified to virtually eliminate human error to provide a reliable and flexible solution
  • Importantly, with a high-security mechanical key override, the resident will never be locked out of the room
  • Stand-alone lock uses 4 AA standard alkaline batteries - typical battery life is 18 months depending upon usage
  • Unlocking by Mifare Card or Mechanical key with hidden high-security cylinder
