    Commercial Real Estate Security

    An easy to understand and unified security solution that creates a better tenant experience

    Unify Real Estate Security and Building Systems for Simplified Management

    Commercial real estate requires a variety of building systems from security to HVAC, fire systems and elevators. Unifying management of those systems can create a safer, more secure, healthier building and a better tenant experience.

    LenelS2 security management systems are the brain of your building. Our access control systems feature over 200 integrations through the OpenAccess Alliance Program (OAAP) and an open API, ensuring any building system can be part of your integrated security program. And our video management systems help provide building-wide surveillance to enhance situational awareness.

    Solving Commercial Real Estate Security Challenges

    A Unified Management Experience

    Our security solutions can enhance situational awareness and improve efficiency by unifying systems like access control, video surveillance, intercoms, intrusion detection, elevator systems, HVAC and fire alarm alerts into a single user interface.

    Easy Visitor Management

    Use our visitor management system to help keep track of the daily influx of visitors to commercial real estate buildings or select from multiple third-party systems that seamlessly integrate with ours.

    Real Estate Access Control from the Cloud

    Businesses of all sizes can benefit from leveraging the power of cloud-based solutions to simplify the management of their security solutions, ensure predictable costs and manage their security with fewer resources all while minimizing installation time and training.

    Industry-leading Third-party Integration Support

    Our physical security solutions for real estate offer out-of-the-box integrations and an open API to help meet typical real estate needs including integrations for digital video platforms, video analytics, incident management, key management, building access control, parking lot control, visitor management systems and more.

    Simplify Cardholder Management

    Tenants don’t always use the same security system as the base building, but that doesn’t need to be a hindrance. Utilize our open architecture access control systems to pull cardholder information from a shared database and deploy a one-card solution to simplify the access experience.

    Analytics

    Analytics capabilities can help tenants monitor occupancy to determine what services need to be provided, whether that be additional staff or cleaning services.


     

    "Top to bottom, the cost savings, user experience and ability to implement novel integrations aren't even in the same ballpark as our old system. We’re excited to see what we can accomplish with the system across the rest of our enterprise."
