A Direct Way to Keep Properties and Guests Secure
DirectKey technology offers greater security than traditional access control systems as well as intelligent occupancy management and contact tracing.
- Mobile key credentials use 128-bit AES data encryption
- Offers user access permissions
- Provides audit trails
A Direct Way to Save Time and Money
Mobile credential management through DirectKey technology helps reduce costs and environmental impact of traditional key card management and production.
- Spend time on your guests, not operations
- Save expenses on keycard production
- Transfer lock audits, share push updates, and update event data easily and in real-time thanks to the on-line capability of DirectKey technology
- Retrofit to existing magnetic and RFID locks
- Integrate into Trillium® and Serene™ DirectKey-ready locks for new projects
In many cases, DirectKey technology can work as an upgrade instead of a full lock replacement – enabling mobile access for guest room locks, public doors, and even parking systems and elevators. DirectKey technology can also be retrofitted into existing Onity locks - saving both time and deployment costs.
Absolutely. DirectKey implementation is flexible for any size property with or without a large IT infrastructure. Onity provides a mobile app that can be easily customized with a unique hotel logo, property photos and contact information. This minimizes costs and reduces the development time and implementation of DirectKey technology.
The capabilities of DirectKey technology go beyond access. Onity’s approach uses DirectKey technology and Bluetooth® enabled locks to create a connected room experience. This experience empowers guests via their smartphone to control a host of in-room smart devices - from lamps to drapes to temperature controls and more. This can create a highly-personalized experience, if guests are willing to share their personal preferences.
DirectKey technology makes access quick and easy for guests through their mobile key - providing a seamless journey – from parking, to elevators, to the guest’s room. Guests can also use their phone to access various secure spaces equipped with Bluetooth enabled locking devices, such as pool-side lockers or other storage locations on the property. Onity’s mobile-enabled locks use Bluetooth technology to stay in a ready state, so guests can unlock doors while on the move, without having to stop their stride or touch the phone to the lock.
Absolutely. DirectKey technology can be easily integrated into existing customer integrations as well as other third party partner apps.
As with any technology implementation, timing varies. But our experience deploying DirectKey technology across nearly 1 million locks means we can move more efficiently and effectively. Our remote site survey program reduces the lead time for project quoting, allowing properties to get a project scheduled more quickly. From there, our project management, installation and commissioning, plus ongoing post-install support has proven to make implementation seamless.
